Management considerations of moose life‐history characteristics in Colorado, USA
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Wildlife management agencies are obliged to provide evidence‐based management recommendations to stakeholders. However, allocation of resources towards the management of species is rarely uniform. The consideration of life‐history characteristics of moose offers wildlife managers a more robust understanding of population ecology, while also providing ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Hunting regulations and movements of alpine reindeer
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Most ungulate populations are regulated by hunting, and harvest rate is regulated through quotas and hunting season duration. Hunting is well known to affect behaviour of ungulates, but how annual variation in quotas and hunting season duration affects individual behaviour remains uncertain.

Wildlife Monographs, EarlyView.We found variable spatial and temporal patterns and predictability of plant phenological progression across 8 pronghorn ranges in Montana. We sampled potential exposure to phenology values for migrants and residents along spring movement paths and summer ranges and found that within herds and years the resident and migrant movement strategies conferred

Indexing body condition of bighorn sheep: potential for concordance among independent investigators?
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023 Estimates of body condition or body composition are useful metrics, and consistency among results determined by independent investigators enhances their utility. If concordant, albeit subjective, assessments of body condition can be achieved by personnel

Can edge AI mitigate environmental effects on camera trap performance?
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.A camera trap enabled with edge artificial intelligence (AI) mitigated the effects of increased air temperature on the probability of false positive detections, but at the cost of an increased probability of missed detections. Other environmental variables affected camera trap performance differently, suggesting the need to account for camera trap ...

Reliability of tooth cementum rings to age bighorn sheep: a blind test
California Fish and Wildlife JournalTooth cementum rings often have been considered the most reliable method for aging larger mammals. Tests of this approach have used samples of known ages, but to ensure objectivity this needs to be carried out as truly blind tests.
