Helminths of Rangifer tarandus (Artiodactyla, Cervidae) across the southern part of its continental range

open access: yesNature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука
Rangifer tarandus in the southern Palaearctic remains poorly documented, particularly with respect to its helminth fauna. Existing data are scarce for these small, isolated, and conservation-significant populations.

FennoTraits: dataset of plant functional traits and community composition in northern European flora

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
We present here FennoTraits, a dataset of plant functional trait and community composition data collected from Fennoscandia across northern Finland, Norway, and Sweden in 2016–2025. This dataset has 42 049 abundance estimations and 155 794 site‐level functional trait observations from 10 traits representing 373 vascular plant species collected from ...

Transferrin variation and evolution of Alaskan reindeer and caribou, Rangifer tarandus L. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to analyse transferrin variation in wild caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) and domestic reindeer (R.t. tarandus) from Alaska. Eighteen alleles were detected in caribou and ten alleles were detected in reindeer.

Species‐specific browsing constraints on tree recruitment may curb conifer treeline expansion in the Arctic

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Treelines at the forest–tundra ecotone are often shifting to higher elevation and latitudes in response to global warming, yet not all treeline positions match the climatic maximum range. This mismatch often reflects the interplay between various factors, including historical land use legacies, propagule dispersal capacity and herbivore impacts on ...

The Application of Autonomous Fixed‐Wing Drones in the Sub‐Antarctic Operating Beyond Visual Line of Sight to Enable Large Area, Multi‐Species Population Monitoring in a Changing Environment

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Autonomous fixed‐wing drones operating beyond visual line of sight of the pilot were used to conduct the first aerial, multi‐species baseline reference survey at the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia. Long‐term population monitoring in this remote, challenging environment has historically proved difficult, with terrestrial monitoring generally ...

Ungulate substrate use in fauna passages

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Fauna passages are increasingly constructed at major roads and railways to mitigate the negative effects of infrastructure and traffic on wildlife. The function of such passages depends on design, including the construction materials, soil, and vegetation.

Arctic ungulates at the northern edge of terrestrial life

open access: yesRangifer, 1996
The two ungulate species that occur in the High Arctic, Rangifer tarandus and Ovibos moschatus, exhibit considerable adaptive plasticity in response to habitat variability throughout their circumpolar distribution. R.

Bye bye baby: effects of bear predation on the movement and behavior of female moose

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Predators influence prey populations not only through direct mortality but also via non‐lethal effects that alter movement, space use, and behavior. While such indirect effects are well documented at broad spatial and temporal scales, short‐term maternal responses following calf loss remain poorly understood.

Summer feeding behaviour of reindeer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus L.) plays an important role ecologically, economically, as well as culturally in northern Fennoscandia, where reindeer husbandry traditionally has considered winter to be the bottleneck for reindeer.
