The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.Antler characteristics are influenced by a combination of genetics, age, and environmental factors, notably habitat quality and resource availability. In this study, we explored how diverse environmental factors, including climate and land cover composition, affect antler size, tine configuration, and the distribution of record‐scoring white‐tailed ...

Investigating Flexible Migration in Hudson Bay Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou)
, 2020 Facultative migration has been hypothesized as a strategy to optimize energetic gain in response to environmental fluctuations. The forest-tundra and forest-dwelling ecotypes of Ontario woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) are often presumed to differ in migratory strategy, however their potential for facultative migration has yet to be ...

Managing Woodland Caribou in West-Central British Columbia
Rangifer, 1996 Initial long term planning for logging on the Tweedsmuir-Entiako caribou winter range began in the early 1980s. Because little information was available on which to base winter range management, the British Columbia Fish and Wildlife Branch began studies on radio-collared caribou in 1983, and an intensive study on caribou winter habitat requirements ...

Anthropogenic disturbance and trophic interactions mediate population viability of American martens
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.We present a simulation model of the probability of collapse to <10% of carrying capacity for American marten populations over a 50‐year time frame in relation to forest disturbance due to commercial harvesting and fur‐trapping levels. Probability of collapse differed between models that assumed no effect of logging (solid line), martens living in a ...

Large mammal recovery in the wake of human population decline
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.Human depopulation, particularly in rural areas, has contributed to the recovery of some large mammal populations. While recovery is generally good news for conservation, it can also lead to human‐wildlife conflict. We present several avenues to maximize coexistence in the face of further rural depopulation in other places. Read the free Plain Language

Deciphering the biosynthetic pathways of lichen acids
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1784-1799, May 2026.Summary Depsides and depsidones are polyketide‐derived lichen acids widely distributed in lichen thalli, yet the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) responsible for their production remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we investigated the diversity and evolutionary relationships of polyketide BGCs in lichens.

Workshop: Conserving woodland caribou in the managed forest
Rangifer, 1998 A workshop was held August 19 to foster discussion and debate on issues related to conservation of woodland caribou in the managed forest. Six panelists were invited to make brief presentations on their points of view on this subject. They were Don Thomas (Canadian Wildlife Service); Hartley Multimaki (Buchanan Forest Products); Colin Edey (NOVA ...
