Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Abundant deer populations often cause conflicts in suburban communities, yet traditional population reduction methods, such as controlled hunting, can be challenging to implement. Fertility control, specifically through ovariectomy, can limit reproduction and reduce populations in certain settings, but its effect on movement behavior remains poorly ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

Wildlife of Florida Factsheet: White-tailed Deer
EDIS, 2018 Learn more about White-tailed Deer in Florida! The Wildlife of Florida Factsheet series was created to provide the public with a quick accurate introduction to Florida’s wildlife, including both native and invasive species. We hope these factsheets inspire people to investigate wildlife in their own backyard and communities and understand the ...

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.This study compared 2 non‐invasive DNA collection methods for river otters and found that fecal swabbing consistently outperformed DETs buffer storage across both temperate and tropical environments. Swabbing yielded higher PCR and genotyping success rates while reducing genotyping errors, particularly when sampling anal jelly in tropical conditions ...

Vegetation structure linked to nest site selection and nest survival of northern bobwhite
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.We attempt to accurately quantify vegetative characteristics that promote nest success of Northern Bobwhites in the Rolling Plains of Texas. A higher proportion of grass and greater visual obstruction were associated with greater nest survival. Similarly, greater visual obstruction and less litter cover in the area surrounding a nest also corresponded ...

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Population genetics reveals how ticks interact with hosts, microbiomes and environments. This review guides researchers in choosing the best tool for the job, weighing cost, resolution, reproducibility and throughput to study tick population structure. Abstract Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting
