Wild Felids as Hosts for Human Plague, Western United States

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Plague seroprevalence was estimated in populations of pumas and bobcats in the western United States. High levels of exposure in plague-endemic regions indicate the need to consider the ecology and pathobiology of plague in nondomestic felid hosts to ...

Molecular techniques for identifying intraguild predators of fishers and other North American small carnivores

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Identifying predators of threatened and endangered species is important for understanding and reducing the impacts of predation. Visible evidence collected from a carcass alone is often insufficient to accurately identify predator species.
