Living on the edge: Habitat characteristics of northern myotis at the periphery of its distribution
Northern myotis selected tall trees with minimal decay, in patches with other roosting options. In our study area, these trees occurred in narrow bands within an agricultural matrix, differing from contiguous forest at the core of the species' distribution. Nevertheless, bats selected the tallest trees in the densest patches available.

We investigated differences between sizes of home ranges using trapping and radiotelemetry data for syntopic Peromyscus boylii and P. truei. Sizes of home ranges were calculated from the minimum convex polygon of trap locations and radiotelemetry ...

SURVIVAL OF FEMALE WILD TURKEYS TRANSPLANTED BEYOND THEIR CURRENT DISTRIBUTION IN MINNESOTA
: The current distribution of eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) in Minnesota extends well beyond their ancestral range. Severe winter conditions are believed to prevent wild turkeys from persisting in areas beyond their current ...

A strategic method for expanding the Pacific Flyway Motus network
We identified high‐use areas of the Pacific Flyway by state where new Motus receiving stations would have the highest probability of detecting multiple tagged avian species of interest with the highest certainty. Abstract Understanding the movement and survival of birds of conservation concern during migration is critical for guiding conservation ...

The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

Home range and habitat use by pacas in a montane tropical forest in Bolivia [PDF]
We studied the home range and habitat use of paca (Cuniculus paca) in a rural agricultural community in the Alto Beni region, in La Paz department, Bolivia, where game meat is the main source of protein for a large portion of local inhabitants.

Driven game shoots in the UK lowlands commonly release several thousand pheasants Phasianus colchicus and red‐legged partridges Alectoris rufa in late summer, which is likely to attract the attention of the main generalist predator, the red fox. Game managers try to protect their releases by culling foxes.

Using radiotelemetry, we found that the movement and home range of the endangered Sacalia bealei varied significantly across reproductive classes and seasons, with males exhibiting greater movement than females during wet and mating seasons. The species exhibits strong aquatic dependence, favoring deep pools interspaced among riffle‐pool sequences ...
