Monitoring GPS‐collared moose by ground versus drone approaches: efficiency and disturbance effects

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Efficient wildlife management requires precise monitoring methods, for example to estimate population density, reproductive success, and survival. Here, we compared the efficiency of drone (equipped with a RGB camera) and ground approaches to detect and observe GPS‐collared female moose Alces alces and their calves. We also quantified how drone (n = 42)

A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

open access: yesWildlife 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

Dietary shift of the common leopard Panthera pardus in and around Bani Wildlife Sanctuary, western Himalayas: implications for conservation and human–wildlife conflict

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding the dietary patterns of apex predator like the common leopard Panthera pardus is essential for evaluating their ecological role, particularly in landscapes where human–wildlife conflict is prevalent. In this context, this study investigates the seasonal diet composition of the common leopard in and around the Bani Wildlife Sanctuary, a ...

Stand Dynamics and Disturbance History of Champlain Valley Clayplain Forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Studies of stand dynamics can explain how species interactions and disturbances drive forest structure and recruitment patterns of tree species. It is difficult to generate an understanding of stand dynamics and successional trends of forests in areas ...

Comparative evaluation of noninvasive DNA sampling and line transect surveys for spring density estimation of black grouse and capercaillie

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Reliable abundance estimates provide essential information in ecology, conservation and management of many wild grouse populations. In this 3‐year study, we comparatively evaluate the suitability of traditional line transect distance sampling of flushed birds versus a spatial capture–recapture survey with noninvasive DNA samples for individual ...

Landscape factors influencing predation on capercaillie nests by two competing mesopredators: pine marten and red fox

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Predation by pine martens Martes martes and red foxes Vulpes vulpes is an important factor influencing the population dynamics of capercaillie Tetrao urogallus. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding the relative effects of these mesopredators on the reproductive success of capercaillie. To better understand how various landscape factors influence
