Evaluation of the marking duration of iophenoxic acid (IPA) derivatives in raccoons (Procyon lotor)

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We evaluated the marking duration and intensity of iophenoxic acid (IPA) analogues in raccoon (Procyon lotor) serum following consumption of test doses encapsulated in a marshmallow or formulated into an oral rabies vaccine bait matrix. The IPA biomarkers demonstrated utility for evaluation of oral rabies vaccination baiting strategies targeting ...

Cutting through the noise: What can habitat selection modeling teach us about caribou‐fire space use dynamics?

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We synthesize the current knowledge regarding caribou habitat selection in relation to wildfires. Caribou responses to recent burns were generally weak and highly variable across subspecies or ecotypes, suggesting that post‐fire habitat selection is likely context‐dependent and the need for regionally adapted habitat management strategies.

Efficacy of deterrents in minimizing nontarget species consumption of bait used for attracting wild pigs (Sus scrofa)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Evaluated repellents were effective at deterring white‐tailed deer from consuming wild pig bait piles without deterring wild pig bait consumption, although the deterrents were not effective for other nontarget wildlife. Abstract BACKGROUND Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are an invasive species that cause environmental and agricultural damage.

Fusion or Confusion? Assessing the Impact of Visible‐Thermal Image Fusion for Automated Wildlife Detection

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the performances of synchronous aerial visible (VIS) and thermal infrared (TIR) imagery for detecting great blue heron (Ardea herodias) nests and individuals using a YOLO11n model. VIS and TIR images were automatically aligned using deep learning, and both early and late fusion approaches were tested.

Tailoring MXene Flake Morphology via Aerosol Jet Printing for Biological and Strain Sensor Applications

Small, EarlyView.
Aerosol Jet Printing (AJP), coupled with a novel in situ monitoring method, enabled the controlled fabrication of aligned and crumpled Ti3C2Tx MXenes for diverse applications. Demonstrated across multiple 2D materials, this scalable strategy stablishes flake morphology as a controllable design parameter for engineering application‐specific material ...

A critical examination of indices of dynamic interaction for wildlife telemetry studies [PDF]

, 2014
The deer data used in this study were supported by funding from The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation.1. Wildlife scientists continue to be interested in studying ways to quantify how the movements of animals are interdependent – dynamic interaction. While

Public health significance of the white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and its role in the eco-epidemiology of tick- and mosquito-borne diseases in North America

Parasites & Vectors
White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are a ubiquitous species in North America. Their high reproductive potential leads to rapid population growth, and they exhibit a wide range of biological adaptations that influence their interactions with ...

An automated device for training white‐tailed deer to visual stimuli

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
Although many aspects of white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) biology and physiology have been studied thoroughly, few studies have confirmed deer cognitive perception, partly because of the difficulty of efficiently training sufficient numbers of ...

Differences in mammal community response to highway construction across different levels of human land use

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Worldwide, transportation agencies have been involved in road mitigation efforts to reduce road mortality and promote connectivity of endangered species. Baseline data on how mammals respond to highway construction, however, are rarely collected in road mitigation and monitoring studies, including in the USA.

Linking bovine tuberculosis on cattle farms to white-tailed deer and environmental variables using Bayesian hierarchical analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Bovine tuberculosis is a bacterial disease caused by Mycobacterium bovis in livestock and wildlife with hosts that include Eurasian badgers (Meles meles), brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula), and white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus).
