Mobility Confers Resilience in Red Kangaroos (Osphranter rufus) to a Variable Climate and Coexisting Herbivores (Sheep, Goats, Rabbits and Three Sympatric Kangaroo Species) in an Arid Australian Rangeland

Diversity
In a 1975 review, red kangaroos in the arid rangelands of Australia were said to be favoured with an anomalous prosperity following the introduction of ruminant livestock.

Passive acoustic monitoring with AI‐based detection and identification reveal sooty grouse hooting patterns in western Oregon

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many bird species are monitored using auditory point count surveys during the breeding season. Autonomous recording units (ARUs) can be used to better understand the daily and seasonal timing of when a species is vocalizing, which can help align surveys with the time period when the maximum number of individuals are present. We used ARUs to improve our

When working together goes against common sense: a framework to bridge conservation and agricultural perspectives in participatory working lands research

Ecology and Society
As biodiversity conservation becomes more urgent and the links between wildlife and rural well-being become more apparent, conservation researchers increasingly seek to engage with partners in agricultural communities through participatory approaches.

Chemical composition of poplar clones leaf in two different removes [PDF]

تحقیقات جنگل و صنوبر ایران, 2008
Five exotic and native poplar clones (two P. euramericana clones, P.d. 72/51 and two native species which are traditionally grazed by livestock during summer) were selected for this study. The purposes of this study were to determine chemical composition

Application of MODIS NDVI for Monitoring Kenyan Rangelands Through a Web Based Decision Support Tool

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2019
The Kenyan rangelands contribute significantly to the country's GDP through livestock production and tourism. With dependence on rain-fed pastures, climate variability coupled with human induced factors such as overgrazing have adversely affected the ...

Biological and environmental drivers of early life fawn survival in a declining pronghorn population

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Pronghorn Antilocapra americana occupy only a portion of their historical range and in Oklahoma occur at the eastern edge of the species' contemporary distribution. Monitoring has suggested pronghorn populations in Oklahoma have declined in recent years.

Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

Whither the Rangeland?: Protection and Conversion in California's Rangeland Ecosystems

PLoS ONE, 2014
Land use change in rangeland ecosystems is pervasive throughout the western United States with widespread ecological, social and economic implications. In California, rangeland habitats have high biodiversity value, provide significant habitat connectivity and form the foundation for a number of ecosystem services.

Anecdotes or Ecological Patterns: Symbiotic Foraging Behaviors in Coyotes and Badgers 奇特模式还是生态格局: 郊狼与獾的共生觅食行为

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Using a 3‐year, broad‐scale camera‐trap network in western Kansas, we tested whether coyotes and American badgers exhibit spatiotemporal patterns consistent with coordinated hunting. Despite high diel activity overlap, detection‐conditioned co‐detections occurred far less frequently than expected under independence, and short‐term temporal sequencing ...
