Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The expansion of the golden jackal Canis aureus in Europe, caused mainly by habitat fragmentation, climate change and the decline of large carnivores until half a century ago, poses emerging challenges for newly colonised regions. With the arrival of a new species, potential effects on local animal communities, hunting, livestock husbandry or the ...

Behavioral response of moose Alces alces to summer heat stress
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Minnesota moose are heat‐stressed during summers, which is adversely impacting their survival. We used both movement and activity data to explore the behavioral responses of Minnesota moose experiencing heat stress, termed ‘hot moose events' or HMEs, to understand how both ambient temperature and available habitat contribute to the ability of these ...

The Basic Understory: A Curriculum of Interrelation
Journal of the Canadian Association for Curriculum Studies, 2018 This editorial is an inquiry into the curriculum of interrelation. In preparation of the articles for this issue, I was struck by the spiritual, ecological, and genealogical resonances in the complex search for meaning. My makings invite you on a thread that networks here and there in a synaptic ontological question of re-storing experience in the ...

Evaluation of factors affecting greater prairie‐chicken nest and brood survival
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Greater prairie‐chickens Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus in the Flint Hills ecoregion select recently burned grasslands for brooding and nest in areas that have been unburned for 1–3 years, suggesting the need for a mosaic of burn patches. However, it is unknown how patch area, configuration, and proximity to edges within such mosaics affect reproductive ...

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Hyperspectral datasets of boreal forest understory vegetation in Finland
, 2012 The understory layer or 'forest floor' typically has a significant role in forming the spectral signal of a sparse boreal forest. However, the lack of field measurements on understory spectra and their seasonality has restricted the development of remote

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.We used automated behavioral response systems (ABRs) to assess invasive wild pig (Sus scrofa) behavioral response to four auditory playbacks: humans, coyote vocalizations (Canis latrans), pigs in distress, and barred owl (Strix varia) calls. Wild pigs had a significant flight response to human playbacks, but 68% of pigs did not flee.

Effect of stand types on understory vegetation.
Journal of environmental biology, 2009 The objective of this study was to compare density vegetative cover, basal area, height growth, aboveground biomass production, frequency floristic composition, and species diversity of understory vegetation growing in Hungarian oak (Quercus frainetto Ten.), Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis L.) and a mixed stand of both species (90% Hungarian oak and ...
