Multiscale patterns of isolation by ecology and fine-scale population structure in Texas bobcats [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
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 ...

First attraction record of Trox plicatus Robinson, 1940 (Coleoptera: Trogidae) to feces of bobcat Lynx rufus Schreber, 1777 (Carnivora: Felidae)

Revista Chilena de Entomología, 2022
The first record of the presence of the keratinophagous beetle Trox plicatus Robinson with the feces of the bobcat Lynx rufus Schreber is presented herein. The environmental conditions under which the Tro x specimens were collected are mentioned.

Patterns of dietary niche breadth and overlap are maintained for two closely related carnivores across broad geographic scales

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Ecological studies investigating niche breadth and overlap often have limited spatial and temporal scale, preventing generalizations across varying environments and communities.

Spatial segregation and habitat partitioning of bobcat and Canada lynx

FACETS, 2020
Harvest records suggest that the abundance of bobcats (Lynx rufus) has increased and the leading edge of their distribution has spread northward, while the trailing edge of the Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) range has contracted in Ontario, Canada.

Face‐off: Novel depredation and nest defense behaviors between an invasive and a native predator in the Greater Everglades Ecosystem, Florida, USA

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
We describe several photo‐documented novel interactions between intraguild predators in southern Florida—the native bobcat (Lynx rufus) and the invasive Burmese python (Python bivittatus).

Fine‐scale habitat selection by sympatric Canada lynx and bobcat

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) and the bobcat (Lynx rufus) are closely related species with overlap at their range peripheries, but the factors that limit each species and the interactions between them are not well understood.

Reconsidering the specialist-generalist paradigm in niche breadth dynamics: resource gradient selection by Canada lynx and bobcat. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The long-standing view in ecology is that disparity in overall resource selection is the basis for identifying niche breadth patterns, with species having narrow selection being classified "specialists" and those with broader selection being "generalists"

Conventional niche overlap measurements are not effective for assessing interspecific competition

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Interspecific competition is notoriously difficult to detect and quantify, especially in species that are wide-ranging or otherwise difficult to track in the wild.

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N1) Virus Clade 2.3.4.4b Infections in Wild Terrestrial Mammals, United States, 2022

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
We describe the pathology of natural infection with highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) virus of Eurasian lineage Goose/Guangdong clade 2.3.4.4b in 67 wild terrestrial mammals throughout the United States during April 1‒July 21, 2022.
