Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Seasonal migration is a behavioral response to predictable variation in environmental resources, risks, and conditions. In behaviorally plastic migrants, migration is a conditional strategy that depends, in part, on an individual’s informational state ...

Temporal Changes in Tasmanian Devil Genetic Diversity at Sites With and Without Supplementation
Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Management interventions for threatened species are well documented with genetic data now playing a pivotal role in informing their outcomes. However, in situ actions like supplementations (releasing individuals into an existing population) are often restricted to a singular site. Considerable research and management effort have been dedicated

Survival of Bighorn Sheep (Ovis canadensis) Commingled with Domestic Sheep (Ovis aries) in the Absence of Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae [PDF]
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2012 To test the hypothesis that Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae is an important agent of the bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) pneumonia that has previously inevitably followed experimental commingling with domestic sheep (Ovis aries), we commingled M. ovipneumoniae-free domestic and bighorn sheep (n=4 each).

A case for human mobility data applications in wildlife management
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 7, Page 1636-1646, July 2025.Human mobility data provides a transformative tool for wildlife management by offering scalable, dynamic insights into human activity that traditional methods cannot fully capture. These data enable managers to prioritize intervention areas, improve compliance with management zones, mitigate conflict risks, and enhance connectivity for sensitive ...

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract The emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1), clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13 in U.S. dairy cattle marks a significant shift in the virus' host range and epidemiological profile. Infected cattle typically exhibit mild clinical signs, such as reduced milk production, mastitis and fever, with morbidity generally below 20% and

Recreational trail traffic counts and trail proximity as a driver of ungulate landscape utilization
Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2025.Abstract With continual growth in recreational trail use, it is becoming increasingly complicated to balance demands for outdoor recreation opportunities with wildlife conservation. To better understand how mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) and Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus canadensis) respond to trail‐based recreation, we deployed remote cameras in a ...
