Adaptive harvesting of two trophic levels stabilises predator–prey dynamics. Simulations with Eurasian lynx and European roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Europe has seen the recovery of many species of wild herbivores, which are now widespread across much of the continent. In addition, large carnivores are also recolonising many European countries. Most ungulates are managed through hunting, but natural predation can also have a significant influence in many areas.

Spatial and Temporal Relationships Between Roe and Red Deer in an Alpine Area

Ecology and Evolution
Interspecific interactions are important drivers of population dynamics and species distribution. These relationships can increase niche partitioning between sympatric species, which can differentiate space and time use or modify their feeding strategies.

Assessing the accuracy of field‐based versus laboratory methods for determining the age of roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Accurate age determination in roe deer Capreolus capreolus is essential for selective harvesting and informed population management, yet field‐based methods widely used by hunters remain imprecise. This study compared field‐based and laboratory age determination methods in 204 harvested roe deer, categorized by sex and habitat type (forest versus open ...

Comparative characteristics of metatarsal bones (Ossa metatarsi) and finger articles (Ossa digitorum pedis seu phalanges digitorum) of roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and sheep (Ovis aries) in orderto determine animal species [PDF]

Veterinarski Glasnik, 2016
Metatarsal bones and finger articles of roe deer and sheep are rarely used for animal identification. In practice there are frequent cases where on a corpse the head and distal parts of the limbs are missing.

Hunting as anthropogenic sink of biomass or source of carrion? A brief case study based on German hunting bags

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Dead biomass is a crucial nutrient source for ecosystems. Although hunting residues can subsidize numerous scavenging organisms and are known to drive important zoogeochemical processes at very different scales in the ecosystem, this has received little attention.

Comparative characteristics of metacarpal bones (Ossa metacarpi) and finger articles (Ossa digitorum pedis seu phalanges digitorum) of roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and sheep (Ovis aries) in order to determine animal species [PDF]

Veterinarski Glasnik, 2016
The method of determining which animal species the bones, on the basis of mor­phological characteristics, belong to, is one of the most commonly used in forensic cases (poaching, fraud, theft, counterfeiting of food of animal origin).For ...

Will Roe Deer Persist in a Warmer World?

PLoS Biology, 2014
​TheThe Earth's climate is rapidly changing at the hands of human activities. There is little doubt about this. There is doubt, however, about how Earth's inhabitants will respond to this change. By combining models of expected climate change with models that match climates to the distributions of species, ecologists can project scenarios of future ...

Possibility of freemartinism in roe deer [PDF]

Acta Theriologica, 1984
Cytogenetic analysis was made in female roe deer, Capreolus capreolus (Linnaeus, 1758), belonging to members of heterosexual triplets. Lymphocytic chimerism was not discovered, the cariotype being defined as 70,XX. The result obtained justifies the assumption that in cases of twin or multiple pregnancy of unlike sexes in the roe deer there is no ...

Space and resource use by American crow Corvus brachyrhynchos in an area endemic for chronic wasting disease

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
American crow Corvus brachyrhynchos is a common species throughout North America. Crows play a role in the ecology of multiple diseases and a single laboratory experiment has shown the potential for crows to pass infectious prions, such as those associated with chronic wasting disease (CWD), in their feces after being force‐fed with infected material ...
