Data‐free speculation does not make for testable hypotheses: A reply to Ripple et al.
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2012 The role of top predators in structuring ecosystems is receiving substantial attention from ecologists. Ripple et al. (2011) recently posed a tentatively supported hypothesis that wolves (Canis lupus) may help restore populations of the U.S.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We estimated daily probabilities of female elk transitioning between hunter access strategies during 4 periods of the fall hunting season in the Devil's Kitchen study area in central Montana, USA, 2020‐2023. Elk generally avoided harvest risk by selecting for less hunter access and more restrictive harvest regulations.

Monitoring GPS‐collared moose by ground versus drone approaches: efficiency and disturbance effects
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Efficient wildlife management requires precise monitoring methods, for example to estimate population density, reproductive success, and survival. Here, we compared the efficiency of drone (equipped with a RGB camera) and ground approaches to detect and observe GPS‐collared female moose Alces alces and their calves. We also quantified how drone (n = 42)

A LONGEVITY RECORD FOR CANADA LYNX, LYNX CANADENSIS, IN WESTERN MONTANA
Western North American Naturalist, 2006 The Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) was listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act (USDI Fish and Wildlife Service 2000) in 2000 and is a species of conservation concern in the United States. New insights into the basic demography of southern lynx populations are needed.
