Age and spatial behavior determine survival of male elk during the hunting season

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We sought to investigate factors that influenced survival of male elk in Montana, USA, during the hunting season using 4 years of movement, age, and survival data. Our findings demonstrate that use of security attributes are the result of behavioral and demographic mechanisms with some age‐based nuances.

Climate change is the primary driver of white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) range expansion at the northern extent of its range; land use is secondary

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2016
Quantifying the relative influence of multiple mechanisms driving recent range expansion of non‐native species is essential for predicting future changes and for informing adaptation and management plans to protect native species.

Improving hospital nutrition care through “Indigenous cultural safety” of menu options: Results of a cross‐sectional survey of Indigenous people in Western Canada

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hospital nutrition services rarely offer Indigenous‐specific menu options, an essential element of delivering “Indigenous cultural safety” in nutrition care to Indigenous patients. Methods Indigenous participants (n = 370) completed a semistructured Indigenous Food Ways survey (paper‐based and online) from 2021 to 2022 as part of ...

Extraction and Quantification of Hydrolyzable Tannins in Acorns from Different Species of Oak Trees (Quercus spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Do white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) prefer to eat certain types of acorns based on tannin content? Hydrolyzable tannins consist of gallate groups connected via ester linkages to a carbohydrate (D-glucose) The Prussian Blue method was used to ...

Red oak seedlings as indicators of deer browse pressure: Gauging the outcome of different white‐tailed deer management approaches

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
After decades of high deer populations, North American forests have lost much of their previous biodiversity. Any landscape‐level recovery requires substantial reductions in deer herds, but modern societies and wildlife management agencies appear unable ...

Understanding contingency in wolf‐mediated livestock predation across a mosaic of land uses: An agent‐based modelling approach

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The return of grey wolves to multi‐use landscapes in North America and Europe raises concerns over accompanying risks of livestock predation. While local‐level risk factors have received attention, it is difficult to explore the role that landscape‐scale variables, such as landscape connectivity, play in driving livestock losses.

Capacity and limitations of US wild meat donation programmes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Historically, sharing of wild harvests to facilitate food security followed concepts of kin selection and reciprocal altruism. However, cultural shifts have reduced access to foods for some populations in modern times. Cultural altruism through sustainably harvested wild meat donation programmes (WDPs) can reduce food and nutritional ...
