Direct Interaction Between Roe Deer and Mountain Hare, a Case of Interference Encounter Competition?
Here, we report on a case of direct interaction between a roe deer doe and a mountain hare recorded by a camera trap in Tydal Municipality, Norway, suggestive of direct interference competition. The roe deer doe is following and displacing the mountain hare for at least 2 min and 29 s, including a 19 s active phase.

Information on the native harvest of caribou (Rangifer tarandus spp.) has been systematically collected in the Kitikmeot (Central Arctic) Region of the Northwest Territories since October 1982 through a cooperative effort between the Kitikmeot Hunters ...

The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Harvest estimates of the Western Arctic caribou herd, Alaska
A generalized least squares regression model was developed to estimate local harvest of the Western Arctic caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) herd. This model provides herd and community level harvest based on community size, proximity of the herd to the

Abstract The human‐built environment influences the behavior and survival of many species, but most of these studies have been conducted in urban areas. Yet, anthropogenic development may impact species differently across scales, including at the rural level. We examined whether the built environment in a rural area obstructed visibility and influenced

Multi-scale foraging decisions made by woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in summer
Multi-scale selection patterns can be understood from two perspectives: coarse scale patterns as the summation of fine scale patterns (scaling-up), or as a hierarchy produced from multiple contributory factors with differential effects on organismal ...

Impacts of reindeer grazing on phosphorus sorption and nutrient availability in a tundra site
Reindeer Rangifer tarandus, a large circumpolar herbivore, can influence whether nitrogen (N) or phosphorus (P) is the primary limiting nutrient in tundra plant communities. Specifically, findings from a site in northern Scandinavia suggest that under conditions where reindeer grazing stimulates inorganic N availability, grazing may drive ecosystems ...

Seasonal variation of leaf functional traits in sub‐Arctic plants
Leaf functional traits are informative of plant fitness and functions in ecosystems. These functional traits and their variation across geographic extents are much studied but less is known about their temporal variation over a growing season. Here, we provide an analysis of the seasonal variation in six leaf functional traits of 11 sub‐Arctic vascular
