Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Using a unique 35‐year dataset, this study shows that domestic livestock do not facilitate wild large herbivores as predicted by the grazing optimization hypothesis. Instead, competition caused avoidance of cattle by elk which intensified under drought, and highlights how climate change influences interactions among domestic and wild large herbivores ...

Habitat Features, Coyotes, and Humans Drive Diel Activity Variation Among Sympatric Mammals
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We found that multiple mammal species show considerable variation in diel activity in response to several factors, with biotic variables (habitat features and the presence of coyotes Canis latrans) having the strongest overall effects. Our results have important implications for trophic dynamics. Future studies will need to account for these underlying

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We study that browsing by wapiti reduces the growth of saplings, and it develop chemical defenses to prevent themselves browsed again. These results reduce our concern about wapiti browse T. cuspidate saplings, and provide basic data for the study of the interaction between them, and also provide theoretical basis for the population restoration and ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...

Reintroduction of an Endangered Butterfly, the Mottled Duskywing (Erynnis martialis)
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We reintroduced Mottled Duskywing (Erynnis martialis), an endangered skipper butterfly, at different life‐stages to restored oak savanna habitat in Ontario, Canada and then performed intensive post‐release monitoring. Our results show that, at one of three sites, a population was established within two years of initiating releases and that pupae and ...

Seasonal Habitat Selection by a Threatened Ungulate in an Industrializing Boreal Landscape
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Understanding habitat selection by Threatened wood bison in landscapes characterized by anthropogenic disturbance is important for conservation planning. During summer and winter, bison selected for linear (e.g., roads, seismic lines, pipelines) and polygonal (e.g., well sites) disturbances, unless there were high densities of linear features.
