Simple Summary Trichinellosis is an important foodborne zoonosis. In Estonia, Trichinella infections are endemic in wild animals. This paper summarizes findings of Trichinella-parasites during an 8-year period in Estonia in selected host species: wild ...

Large impact of Eurasian lynx predation on roe deer population dynamics.
The effects of predation on ungulate populations depend on several factors. One of the most important factors is the proportion of predation that is additive or compensatory respectively to other mortality in the prey, i.e., the relative effect of top ...

Bottleneck‐associated changes in the genomic landscape of genetic diversity in wild lynx populations
Demographic bottlenecks generally reduce genetic diversity through more intense genetic drift, but their net effect may vary along the genome due to the random nature of genetic drift and to local effects of recombination, mutation, and selection.

Exploratory and territorial behavior in a reintroduced population of Iberian lynx
In reintroduction projects, an analysis of dispersal, exploratory movements and territorial behavior of the species concerned offers valuable information on the adaptive management of threatened species and provides a basis for the management of future ...

Artificial feeding of wildlife is a widespread, but controversial, management practice with many positive and negative effects. Besides the effects on the target species, it can also affect other (non-target) species by modulating interspecific ...

The application of species distribution models (SDMs) to areas outside of where a model was created allows informed decisions across large spatial scales, yet transferability remains a challenge in ecological modeling.

Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in the Austrian Alps in period 2005–2009
To assess the status of Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in the Austrian Alps we evaluated signs of lynx presence collected from 2005 to 2009. The spatial distribution and the number of records collected (228 versus 225) remained stable compared to the 5-year ...
