Hunting regulations and movements of alpine reindeer
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Most ungulate populations are regulated by hunting, and harvest rate is regulated through quotas and hunting season duration. Hunting is well known to affect behaviour of ungulates, but how annual variation in quotas and hunting season duration affects individual behaviour remains uncertain.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.After decades of dramatic reductions in their populations, Italian wolves have begun recolonizing parts of their historic range. This growth in populations can lead to potential conflicts with human activities, which remain the main cause of wolf mortality.

Preliminary landscape mapping and analys of ecological features of the island of Vaigach
RUDN Journal of Ecology and Life Safety, 2013 Selected on the basis of decoding of space pictures and analysis of the published data of natural-territorial complexes provide a first idea of the uniqueness of the landscape of the island of Vaigach. Climate warming will cause first of all the activity

Behavioural responses of a gamebird to human encounters across the hunting season
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.We examined the behavioural adaptation of rock ptarmigan Lagopus muta in response to human encounters across the hunting season. We conducted disturbance experiments in two different parts of the species' range, in subarctic (Iceland) and in alpine (Italy) habitats.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Seasonal changes shape herbivore behaviour by altering forage availability and habitat conditions; however, few studies integrate diet and habitat selection data across temporal scales. This study uses seasonality as a unifying framework to combine fine‐scale GPS‐based habitat selection data with broader‐scale dietary information from stable isotope ...

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Climate change drives shifts in suitable habitats for Eurasian lynx and its prey (hare, roe deer) in Mohe, Daxing'anling Mountains. Under RCP scenarios, moderate warming (RCP4.5) promotes substantial habitat expansion, while high‐emission conditions (RCP8.5) lead to strong expansion in the 2050s but slower gains and partial contraction by the 2070s ...
