Identification of a Novel Gammaherpesvirus in Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) [PDF]
Viruses, 2019 Gammaherpesviruses (GHVs) infect many animal species and are associated with lymphoproliferative disorders in some. Previously, we identified several novel GHVs in North American felids; however, a GHV had never been identified in Canada lynx (Lynx ...

Landscape connectivity for bobcat (Lynx rufus) and lynx (Lynx canadensis) in the Northeastern United States. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Landscape connectivity is integral to the persistence of metapopulations of wide ranging carnivores and other terrestrial species. The objectives of this research were to investigate the landscape characteristics essential to use of areas by lynx and ...

Temperature driven density gradients of two congeneric felids reveal contrasting responses to climate change at a range margin [PDF]
Scientific ReportsClimate change causes divergent range shifts in cold versus warm-tolerant species, potentially reshuffling biotic interactions at range margins. Yet, outside of coarse distributional metrics, little information exists regarding the ecology of species ...

A test of somatic mosaicism in the androgen receptor gene of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis). [PDF]
BMC Genet, 2015 The androgen receptor, an X-linked gene, has been widely studied in human populations because it contains highly polymorphic trinucleotide repeat motifs that have been associated with a number of adverse human health and behavioral effects. A previous study on the androgen receptor gene in carnivores reported somatic mosaicism in the tissues of a ...

Using information theory to select spatial scales for species-habitat responses with camera traps. [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract Widespread anthropogenic landscape change, particularly from energy development, has fundamentally reshaped ecosystems, and understanding species responses remains a central ecological challenge. Remote camera traps are widely used to estimate mammal abundance and distribution, but inferring species–habitat relationships from these data is ...

The King in the Crosshairs: Evidence of a Predation Attempt on European Bison by Wolves. [PDF]
Ecol EvolTo our knowledge, we present the first video‐recorded evidence of wolves attacking a European bison herd in the BPF. The European bison, often referred to as the king of the forest, is generally described as a non‐prey species, but historical data and our recent documented observation provide clear evidence that they can be subjected to wolf predation.
