Born to die: pack and population level estimates of wolf pup survival and recruitment in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolf pup Canis lupus survival is a key driver of wolf population dynamics that remains poorly understood, especially in forested systems, because wolf pups are difficult to monitor. We used a combination of pup counts at dens and remote camera observations to estimate annual survival and recruitment of wolf pups in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem, MN ...

Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.
