Ecosphere, 2023 Spatial and temporal variation in prey availability can affect predator foraging strategies, but it is unclear how large‐scale gradients in prey availability shape predator diets in space and time.

Density estimates for Canada lynx vary among estimation methods
Ecosphere, 2021 Unbiased population density estimates are critical for ecological research and wildlife management but are often difficult to obtain. Researchers use a variety of sampling and statistical methods to generate estimates of density, but few studies have ...

Missing lynx and trophic cascades in food webs: A reply to Ripple et al.
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2012 Ripple et al. (2011) proposed a hypothesis that the recovery of gray wolves (Canis lupus) may positively affect the viability of threatened Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) populations in the contiguous United States through indirect species interactions ...

Habitat loss, not fragmentation, drives occurrence patterns of Canada lynx at the southern range periphery. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Peripheral populations often experience more extreme environmental conditions than those in the centre of a species' range. Such extreme conditions include habitat loss, defined as a reduction in the amount of suitable habitat, as well as habitat ...

Applying allometric scaling to predator-prey systems [PDF]
, 2019 In population dynamics, mathematical models often contain too many parameters to be easily testable. A way to reliably estimate parameters for a broad range of systems would help us obtain clearer predictions from theory.

Plague as a Mortality Factor in Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) Reintroduced to Colorado [PDF]
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2006 As part of a species recovery program, 129 Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) originating from British Columbia, the Yukon, Manitoba, and Quebec, Canada, and Alaska, USA, were reintroduced to southwestern Colorado, USA, from 1999 to 2003. Of 52 lynx mortalities documented by October 2003, six lynx, including a female and her 5-mo-old kitten, had evidence of

Evaluation of Gum‐line Recession for Aging Lynx ( Lynx canadensis )
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2021 ABSTRACT Accurate age estimates of wildlife are important for both research and management purposes. Despite the value of determining the age of individuals, cost effective and minimally‐invasive approaches are lacking for most species.

Can restoring wolves aid in lynx recovery?
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2011 Herein, we examine the hypothesis that relatively low densities of snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus) and the imperiled status of lynx (Lynx canadensis) may be partially due to an ecological cascade caused by the extirpation of gray wolves (Canis lupus ...
