Population dynamics of Townsend's big‐eared bats: effect of age and drought on survival
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.We estimated age‐specific yearly survival of female Townsend's big‐eared bats in Inyo and Mono Counties, California. We found that both juvenile and adult survival were negatively impacted by drought, and that detection probability was lower for hand‐recapture than for bats detected via pass‐through antenna arrays.

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.In rural areas, maintaining spaces between houses >500 m will likely facilitate ungulate movement. To fully conserve functional habitat, such as unimpeded habitat use along migration corridors, maintaining spaces approximately >2.5 km between houses will likely be necessary. Abstract Wildlife often lose access to habitat due to housing development. The

Efficacy of a two-ingredient fumigant on Richardson's ground squirrel [PDF]
, 1984 In July 1981, efficacy data were obtained on a new two-ingredient gas cartridge by field testing against Richardson's ground squirrels (Spermophilus richardsonii) in a sagebrush-rangeland pasture. The gas cartridge contained 97 g of a sodium nitrate (65%)
