Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.

Environmental and temporal factors affecting record white‐tailed deer antler characteristics in Ontario, Canada

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Antler characteristics are influenced by a combination of genetics, age, and environmental factors, notably habitat quality and resource availability. In this study, we explored how diverse environmental factors, including climate and land cover composition, affect antler size, tine configuration, and the distribution of record‐scoring white‐tailed ...

Extraction and Quantification of Hydrolyzable Tannins in Acorns from Different Species of Oak Trees (Quercus spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Do white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) prefer to eat certain types of acorns based on tannin content? Hydrolyzable tannins consist of gallate groups connected via ester linkages to a carbohydrate (D-glucose) The Prussian Blue method was used to ...

Impacts of human hunting on spatial behavior of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus)

open access: yes, 2016
Predators can influence populations through top-down effects, but most large predators have been extirpated from the range of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus (Zimmermann, 1780)).

Wild pig habitat use impacted by prescribed fire in the William B. Bankhead National Forest, USA

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Natural resource management activities like integrated wild pig control programs and 3–5‐year interval prescribed burning can reduce wild pig activity and habitat but can have an unintended side effect of allowing them to thrive in sensitive and protected areas, where access and tools are restricted.

Understanding contingency in wolf‐mediated livestock predation across a mosaic of land uses: An agent‐based modelling approach

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The return of grey wolves to multi‐use landscapes in North America and Europe raises concerns over accompanying risks of livestock predation. While local‐level risk factors have received attention, it is difficult to explore the role that landscape‐scale variables, such as landscape connectivity, play in driving livestock losses.
