Patterns and Processes of Genetic Diversity in the Endangered San Joaquin Kit Fox [PDF]
, 2014 Survival of the endangered San Joaquin kit fox (SJKF; Vulpes macrotis mutica) is challenged by reduced and fragmented habitat resulting from anthropogenic land uses in the Central Valley of California. Because the SJKF is adapted to arid landscapes and utilizes large home ranges to prey on kangaroo rats, genetic techniques are very useful to study ...

Patterns of Den Use by San Joaquin Kit Foxes
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1998Patterns of den use by San Joaquin kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica) on an oil and natural gas reserve in the Central Valley of Califomia were studied from 1980 to 1987 to determine the effect of petroleum development on this endangered subspecies of kit fox.

Native to central California, where land is in high demand for development purposes, the San Joaquin kit fox population has been significantly impacted by profound habitat loss. The species remains on the original US endangered species list issued in 1966, with dim prospects for recovery. To guide the work of researchers and conservationists, this book

TWO OBSERVATIONS OF TREE CLIMBING BY THE SAN JOAQUIN KIT FOX
The Southwestern Naturalist, 2004Abstract Tree climbing behavior is rarely observed among the Canidae and has not been observed in kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis). While conducting another behavioral study in Bakersfield, California in November 2002, we observed kit foxes climb trees on 2 occasions.

Condition of San Joaquin Kit Foxes in Urban and Exurban Habitats
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1999We compared condition of endangered San Joaquin kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica) between an urban population in Bakersfield, California (BAK), and a nearby exurban population at the Naval Petroleum Reserves in California (NPRC). Our objective was to determine whether differences between urban and exurban environments, particularly food availability ...

Effects of Radiocollars on San Joaquin Kit Foxes
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1997Effects of radiocollars on San Joaquin kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica; Mecure et al. 1993) at the Naval Petroleum Reserves, California were assessed by comparing survival, body mass changes, and reproductive indices between uncollared and collared foxes, and between foxes wearing 100-110 and 50-60-g collars.

Factors Affecting the Spatial Distribution of San Joaquin Kit Foxes
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1998Determining the factors that influence or limit the distribution of endangered species can have important conservation implications. We investigated the spatial distribution of endangered San Joaquin kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica) within a 31,400-ha area of the Naval Petroleum Reserves in California (NPRC) from 1988 to 1995 by relating capture ...

HEMATOLOGIC VALUES OF THE ENDANGERED SAN JOAQUIN KIT FOX, VULPES MACROTIS MUTICA
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1987Between 1981 and 1982 blood samples were collected from 64 adult San Joaquin kit foxes, Vulpes macrotis mutica, in western Kern County, California. The goal of the study was to establish normal blood values for this endangered species, and to determine whether changes in them could be used to assess the possible effects of petroleum developments on ...

Barking Vocalizations in San Joaquin Kit Foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica)
The Southwestern Naturalist, 2008Abstract Swift foxes (Vulpes velox) and Arctic foxes (Alopex lagopus) often use barking to communicate information to mates, members of social groups, and other conspecifics. Barking by the closely related kit fox (V. macrotis), however, remains largely unobserved and undocumented. We observed barking among a population of radiocollared San Joaquin kit

SERUM CHEMISTRY VALUES OF THE ENDANGERED SAN JOAQUIN KIT FOX (VULPES MACROTIS MUTICA)
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1992Serum chemistry values were obtained from 64 adult San Joaquin kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica) in western Kern County, California (USA). The goal of the study was to establish normal chemistry values for this endangered species. No significant differences were found for mean values of alanine aminotransferase (217.1 IU/l), alkaline phosphatase (44.2
