Genetic population structure of red foxes Vulpes vulpes across a rural landscape: insights into population connectivity and spatial patterns

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Human activities have shaped and are continuing to influence terrestrial landscapes, creating heterogenous, and often, fragmented landscapes. Generalist species, like the red fox Vulpes vulpes, show high flexibility in habitat use, and occur across the heterogeneous, anthropogenic landscapes of central Europe.

Adaptive harvesting of two trophic levels stabilises predator–prey dynamics. Simulations with Eurasian lynx and European roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Europe has seen the recovery of many species of wild herbivores, which are now widespread across much of the continent. In addition, large carnivores are also recolonising many European countries. Most ungulates are managed through hunting, but natural predation can also have a significant influence in many areas.

Vulpes vulpes LinnaEus 1758

Vulpes vulpes Linnaeus, 1758 Red Fox Vulpes vulpes can be found throughout Louisiana except in the southern coastal parishes. Since Lowery (1974), specimen records were reported fromAvoyelles and Lafayette parishes. Additionally, nonvouchered records were reported from Ascension, Rapides, Union, and West Feliciana parishes.

A literature‐based framework for anticipating golden jackal Canis aureus colonisation: insights from Europe and a Swiss case study

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 ...

The red fox - <em>Trichinella</em> relationship: a review of past and recent evidence

Hystrix, the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 2007
<strong>Abstract</strong> In central and southern Europe, the red fox <em>Vulpes vulpes</em> is considered the reservoir of the parasite nematode <em>Trichinella britovi</em>, whose mainly fox-to-fox transmission ...

Interannual dynamic resource selection patterns of the northern bobwhite in a region with poor edaphic conditions

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding an organism's shifting resource needs throughout its life cycle is crucial for developing effective conservation strategies. Northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus populations have been declining for nearly a century due largely to habitat loss/degradation.

Diversity and Conservation of Carnivores in Saudi Arabia

Diversity
In the present study, we updated the taxonomy and distributional data for 14 carnivore species based on previous records and the recent results of camera trapping (4787 camera nights from 58 locations) and depicted species richness.

Isotopic evidence for the consumption of Galliformes by the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in rural southern England

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic resource subsidies can drive mesopredator population growth, altering predator–prey dynamics. The red fox Vulpes vulpes is a generalist canid that can readily exploit such subsidies. In the UK, tens of millions of pheasants Phasianus colchicus and red‐legged partridges Alectoris rufa are released annually for sport shooting, potentially ...

First camera-trap records of three wild carnivores from Corbett Tiger Reserve, India

Journal of Threatened Taxa
Environmental changes and anthropogenic pressures are affecting species distributions globally, where some species are more vulnerable than others to these alterations. Our study documents the first photographic evidence of Indian Fox Vulpes bengalensis,
