Canada lynx foraging strategies: Facultative specialists become obligate generalists toward the distribution edge

open access: yesEcosphere, 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

open access: yesEcosphere, 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.

open access: yesWildlife 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]

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Can restoring wolves aid in lynx recovery?

open access: yesWildlife 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 ...

The influence of snowmobile trails on coyote movements during winter in high-elevation landscapes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Competition between sympatric carnivores has long been of interest to ecologists. Increased understanding of these interactions can be useful for conservation planning.

Improved prediction of Canada lynx distribution through regional model transferability and data efficiency

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
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.

Wild Carnivore Survey of Echinococcus Species in Slovenia

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Wild carnivores are definitive hosts and potential reservoirs for the tapeworm Echinococcus sp. which can cause cystic and alveolar echinococcosis. Both are considered neglected and important food-borne pandemics.
