Wildlife‐friendly fencing for bison: Assessing success for containment and conflict prevention
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.As land managers increasingly adopt wildlife‐friendly fencing to reduce habitat fragmentation, questions remain regarding their effectiveness in containing large species like plains bison (Bison bison). Our 822‐day study of a novel fencing system in Montana demonstrates high containment success, with only 31 escape events recorded.

Fire History and Western Juniper Encroachment in Sagebrush Steppe [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 1999 The recent expansion of juniper into sagebrush steppe communities throughout the semiarid Intermountain West is most frequently attributed to the reduced role of fire, introduction and overstocking of domestic livestock in the late 1800s, and mild and wet climate conditions around the turn of the century.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Riparian willows in Yellowstone National Park are shaped by ungulate browsing, but species‐specific contributions remain unclear. Using bite‐DNA metabarcoding of browsed willow twigs across six northern range sites, we found that American bison were the most frequent browsers, exceeding elk and often mule deer.
