An automated device for training white‐tailed deer to visual stimuli
Although many aspects of white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) biology and physiology have been studied thoroughly, few studies have confirmed deer cognitive perception, partly because of the difficulty of efficiently training sufficient numbers of ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Abstract Invasive species present substantial challenges to biodiversity conservation, particularly when low detectability and demographic heterogeneity obscure the population‐level consequences of management actions. Invasive Burmese pythons (Python bivittatus) in South Florida exemplify this challenge, as metrics based on raw removals or body size ...

Compounding effects of cattle, wild ungulates, and beaver impede riparian restoration
Abstract Planting native woody vegetation is a common restoration practice to increase stream shade, an important salmonid habitat recovery strategy in the interior Pacific Northwest (PNW, USA). Herbivory by domestic livestock and wild mammals, a ubiquitous disturbance in PNW riparian zones, is a common barrier to survival and growth of plantings ...

Effects of wildfire on the distribution of mammals and birds in a working shrub‐steppe landscape
Abstract The intensity, frequency, and extent of wildfire have increased drastically in the sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecoregion within Washington, USA, over the last few decades. Wildfire on this landscape, already modified and fragmented by agriculture and other disturbances, may challenge the persistence of wildlife that depend on continuous ...

Native earthworms and roe deer in temperate forests: Friends in the sun, foes in the shade
Abstract Given increasing deer populations and rising canopy openness through tree mortality in European forests, understanding how these changes affect above‐belowground communities and ecosystem functioning is becoming more important. Earthworms comprise the largest animal biomass in European forest soils and play a central role in decomposition ...
