Variation in Body Mass of San Joaquin Kit Foxes [PDF]

Journal of Mammalogy, 1999
We evaluated effects of age, sex, season, and year on body mass of endangered San Joaquin kit foxes ( Vulpes macrotis mutica ) over a 16-year period at the Naval Petroleum Reserves in California. Mean body mass of kit foxes increased by 35–47% for the 1st 3 months of life, and foxes gained ca.

Consequences of Lack of Parameterization Invariance of Non-informative Bayesian Analysis for Wildlife Management: Survival of San Joaquin Kit Fox and Declines in Amphibian Populations

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Computational convenience has led to widespread use of Bayesian inference with vague or flat priors to analyze statistical models in ecology. Vague priors are claimed to be objective and to “let the data speak.” However, statisticians have long disputed ...

Competitive Interactions between Coyotes and San Joaquin Kit Foxes [PDF]

Journal of Mammalogy, 1998
Competitive interactions between coyotes ( Canis latrans ) and federally endangered San Joaquin kit foxes ( Vulpes macrotis mutica ) were investigated at the Naval Petroleum Reserves in California (NPRC) during 1984–1995. Coyotes and kit foxes used similar food items, indicating the potential for exploitative competition. Leporids were the primary prey

Dispersal Patterns of San Joaquin Kit Foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica) [PDF]

Journal of Mammalogy, 2000
We investigated dispersal patterns of San Joaquin kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica )o n the Naval Petroleum Reserves, California. Of 209 juvenile kit foxes monitored during 1980‐1996, 33% dispersed from their natal territory. Significantly more males (49.4%) than females (23.8%) dispersed, and dispersal peaked in July.

Assessing the role of dens in the spread, establishment and persistence of sarcoptic mange in an endangered canid

Epidemics, 2019
Sarcoptic mange is a skin disease caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei that can devastate populations of wild species. S. scabiei can survive off-host and remain infective for specific periods.

Non-invasive baseline genetic monitoring of the endangered San Joaquin kit fox on a photovoltaic solar facility

Endangered Species Research, 2015
Survival of endangered San Joaquin kit foxes Vulpes macrotis mutica is challenged by reduced and fragmented habitat resulting from anthropogenic uses. We monitored kit foxes on the 40 km2 proposed site for the Topaz Solar Farms (TSF) in San Luis Obispo ...
