Validating antler‐ and movement‐based estimates of caribou reproduction using video camera collars Validation des estimations de la reproduction du caribou basées sur la rétention des bois et  sur le déplacement à l'aide de colliers‐caméras

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We used GPS video camera collar data from barren‐ground caribou in the Porcupine and Western Arctic herds to validate antler‐ and movement‐based methods for estimating annual reproductive metrics. Antler retention was highly accurate for estimating parturition, but the movement methods we tested performed marginally for estimating parturition and ...

Monitoring wolverine (Gulo gulo) distribution across the western United States for regional and national assessment

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We estimated the distribution of the federally threatened wolverine (Gulo gulo) across the western United States in 2022, evaluated changes in distribution since 2017 (the last survey), and made inference on drivers of wolverine occurrence. This monitoring program and subsequent results are used by states to make management and conservation decisions ...

Recovery of southern mountain caribou habitat following wildfire in Ulkatcho territory, British Columbia, Canada

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Caribou forage lichens were present in post‐burn lodgepole pine stands multiple decades before stem‐density was likely open enough to attract wintering caribou. We posit that the prolonged self‐thinning of lodgepole pine after fire may be a greater limiting factor than lichen abundance for habitat recovery in lodgepole pine forests.

The Swedish Arctic Fox Project: 40 years of research in ecology and conservation

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
The 4 central research themes in The Swedish Arctic Fox Project and key deliverables for practical conservation achieved over 4 decades. Abstract The scientific community widely recognizes the value of long‐term studies, especially those with individual‐level resolution; however, maintaining a consecutive data series is associated with multiple ...

Afforestation Partially Offsets Losses of Soil Conservation Services and Carbon Stock From Direct and Indirect Urban Expansion in China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion has exerted both direct and indirect impacts on natural land and ecosystem services it supports, driven by increasing population and food demand, yet these underlying pathways remain insufficiently distinguished. Here, we quantified the losses of soil conservation services (water erosion regulation and sandstorm prevention) and
