Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain
Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...

Human activities have shaped and are continuing to influence terrestrial landscapes, creating heterogenous, and often, fragmented landscapes. Generalist species, like the red fox Vulpes vulpes, show high flexibility in habitat use, and occur across the heterogeneous, anthropogenic landscapes of central Europe.

The populations of many deer species across Europe are widely reported to be increasing, leading to potentially greater impacts on forest ecosystems. Our understanding of factors driving the regional distribution (e.g. 1 km2 resolution) of deer populations is, however, often limited by a lack of knowledge of where deer are within the landscape.

Tree cavities and nestboxes are crucial resources for cavity‐nesting birds. While cavities are essential for reproduction, their importance outside the breeding season remains poorly understood, with most existing evidence focusing on nestbox use by small birds to reduce heat loss during winter.
