Why wolves walk – drivers of daily movement in a social large carnivore

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Animal movement patterns are influenced by a range of extrinsic and intrinsic factors, including the distribution of resources, human disturbance, landscape connectivity, species interactions, and individual traits. We examined factors associated with daily movement distance (DMD) and linearity in 20 territorial Scandinavian wolves Canis lupus during ...

Estimating large carnivore populations in an arid fenced reserve using spatial capture–recapture modelling

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In fenced protected areas where large carnivore populations persist or have been restored through reintroduction, population monitoring is essential to inform management. Robust density estimates are particularly important given the strong influence of large carnivores on ecosystem processes, yet such data remain scarce for arid systems where ...

Cortisol concentrations in hair are biomarkers of health status and seasonal change, but not urbanisation, in wolves

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolves have reclaimed much of their former range in Europe, including areas with a high human footprint, yet the physiological impacts of human‐associated stressors remain poorly understood. We first examined methodological factors affecting hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in wolves by using a ‘shave/re‐shave' design to assess hair growth rate and ...

Livestock grazing and geodiversity modulate wild herbivore distributions in an African community conservation area

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The rapid decline of African wildlife populations demands immediate action to mitigate further losses and restore ecosystems. A key factor influencing wildlife distribution is the relationship between the energetic needs of species and the availability of forage, both in terms of quality and quantity.
