Habitat connectivity and resource selection in an expanding bobcat (Lynx rufus) population. [PDF]
Terrestrial carnivores are among the most imperiled species worldwide, yet some species are resilient and are recovering in human-dominated landscapes after decades or centuries of absence.

High prevalence of Lynx rufus gammaherpesvirus 1 in wild Vermont bobcats. [PDF]
Gammaherpesviruses (GHVs) are host specific DNA viruses that infect a large range of mammalian species. These viruses preferentially target host lymphocyte cell populations and infection may lead to morbidity or mortality in immunocompromised, co ...

Landscape connectivity for bobcat (Lynx rufus) and lynx (Lynx canadensis) in the Northeastern United States. [PDF]
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]
Climate 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 ...

Epizootic and zoonotic helminths of the bobcat (Lynx rufus) in Illinois and a comparison of its helminth component communities across the American Midwest. [PDF]
A total of 6257 helminths of 19 taxa were recovered from the digestive tract and lungs of 67 bobcats in Illinois. Infections caused by Alaria mustelae, Diphyllobothrium latum, and Macracanthorhynchus ingens are reported for the first time in bobcats ...

Multiscale patterns of isolation by ecology and fine-scale population structure in Texas bobcats [PDF]
Patterns of spatial genetic variation can be generated by a variety of ecological processes, including individual preferences based on habitat. These ecological processes act at multiple spatial and temporal scales, generating scale-dependent effects on ...
