We monitored medium to large mammal and human activity to assess impacts of recreation and inform management, deploying 27 trail cameras along multi‐use non‐motorized recreational trails for 2.5 years in a heavily used area within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, USA.

Resource distribution, habitat structure, and predators greatly influence spatial and temporal landscape use by prey species. The “risky places” hypothesis establishes prey will proactively respond to predators' presence based on habitat cues, whereas ...

Bergmann's rule: Why does body size increase with latitude?
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Bergmann's rule describes the tendency for endothermic body size to increase with latitude, a pattern often attributed to climatic factors. However, the underlying developmental and evolutionary mechanisms remain debated.

- Predation affects the demography and population dynamics of prey species. Because predators commonly stalk prey from concealed routes, attack quickly, and frequently avoid areas with human observers, documenting predation under natural conditions is ...

FOOD HABITS OF THE AMERICAN BADGER (Taxidea taxus) IN SOUTHERN TEXAS: AN OBSERVATION
Limited information exists on American badgers (Taxidea taxus) within their southern distribution. Our goal was to gather information on diet of badgers in southern Texas.

Seasonal body mass dynamics mediate life‐history trade‐offs in a hibernating mammal
We tested a suite of ecological hypotheses to explain variation in seasonal body mass dynamics of a fat‐storing mammalian hibernator. We further demonstrated that pre‐hibernation mass gain in ground squirrels mediates an annual allocation trade‐off between current and future reproduction as the squirrels forage and rear young under predation risk ...

The effects of roads on habitat selection and movement patterns of the American badger subspecies Taxidea taxus jacksoni in Ontario, Canada [PDF]
Road mortality is identified as a threat to American badger (Taxidea taxus (Schreber, 1777)) populations across Canada. Understanding habitat selection and movement in relation to roads is therefore vital to their conservation.
