Estimating Black Bear Population Size, Growth Rate, and Minimum Viable Population Using Bait Station Surveys and Mark-Recapture Methods
… had bait station surveys was 48 (31 males, 17 females), 59 (44 males, 15 females), 45 (32 males, 13 females), and 43 (26 males, 17 females) in 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002, respectively. Harvest of males and females differed (n = 2, F = 19.44, df = 1, P = 0.0045). Bait station visitation and …

Resource selection, predation risk, and population dynamics of woodland caribou
… selection by caribou, wolf predation risk, adult female caribou survival and, ultimately, population trend for 9 woodland caribou populations. Caribou avoided disturbance across all scales of resource selection, though avoidance of forestry cut-blocks was strongest at broad home range scales …

Migratory Behavior and Survival of Adult Female Elk in a Partially Migratory Population
… a ten-year VHF and GPS telemetry dataset of 223 adult female elk (Cervus elaphus) in the declining Ya Ha Tinda partially migratory population in west-central Alberta, Canada. We used measures of net squared displacement (NSD) from the winter range, plotted over time in combination with a Global …

INDIVIDUAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS ON LIFE HISTORY TRAIT EXPRESSION IN NAZCA BOOBIES
… underlying variation in reproduction, survival, and ageing patterns. In the first chapter, age-specific demographic data spanning the loss of a preferred prey item were used to forecast the response of the Nazca booby population to future exclusion of the key prey species (sardines, …

Population Dynamics and Spatial Ecology of White-tailed Deer in the Central Appalachian Mountains of Virginia
… of these changes in white-tailed deer herds are survival, cause-specific mortality, home-range variation, both broad and fine-scale resource selection, and ultimately population growth trends in response to changes in both population vital rates and hunter harvest regulations. In this study, I …

Survival, family breakups, and dispersal of yearling and subadult black bears in western Virginia
Reported survival rates, dates of family breakup, and dispersal patterns for yearling and subadult bears in hunted black bear (Ursus americanus) populations in North America are scarce. We estimated survival rates of yearling and subadult black bears from a hunted population in western Virginia …
