Lessons learned and lingering uncertainties after seven years of chronic wasting disease management in Norway

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is well known among cervids in North America. Nevertheless, management faced different types and degrees of uncertainty when CWD was first detected in reindeer Rangifer tarandus in Nordfjella, Norway in 2016. We present a timeline of the efforts to control CWD, and identify how the process, measurement, environmental, and ...

Resource‐driven changes in wild boar movement and their consequences for the spread of African Swine Fever in the Russian Far East

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Knowledge of animal movement patterns is invaluable to understanding the spread of diseases among wildlife populations. One example is the recent African swine fever (ASF) outbreak among wild boar Sus scrofa populations across East Asia, where there is a lack of information on movements of this species.

Recent enrichment of megafauna in the north of Eurasia supports the concept of Pleistocene rewilding

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
‘Pleistocene rewilding' refers to the concept of restoring ecosystems to their state during the Pleistocene epoch, by (re‐)introducing species or their close relatives that were present during that time, in an effort to revive ecological processes that existed before human‐driven extinctions.

Using high‐density SNP genotyping to determine the origin of wild boar dispersers outside the geographic range margins in Norway

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Mammalian dispersal is characterized by long‐distance movements, and whether dispersal is sex‐dependent and occurs at pre‐saturation densities affects colonization speed and concurrent pathogen spread. In Scandinavia, Sweden classifies wild boar Sus scrofa as a native species and retains high densities, while Norwegian authorities considers it an alien

Deep personal relationships and well‐being: A response to Hooker

Ratio, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 301-309, December 2022., 2022
Abstract This paper is a response to Brad Hooker's “Does having deep personal relationships constitute an element of well‐being?” (2021). The paper begins with a discussion of the implications of disagreement about such issues. After raising some general questions for Hooker's account, the paper turns to the key elements in a deep personal relationship,
