  1. Effects of Road Characteristics, Land Cover, and Topography on Roadkill Patterns Across a Rural-Urban Gradient in Southwest Virginia

    … 11 taxa. The most frequent roadkill taxa were tree squirrels (Sciurus sp.), opossums (Didelphis virginiana), striped skunks (Mephitus mephitis), and raccoons (Procyon lotor). I found three roadkill hotspots, all along a major highway, and a high frequency of roadkill in spring, autumn, and …

  2. Competition Between Fox (Sciurus Niger) and Gray (S. Carolinensis) Squirrels (Illinois, Habitat Selection, Behavior)

    … of competition in free-living populations of tree squirrels was evaluated by manipulating female fox squirrel numbers and monitoring the response of gray squirrels. Supplemental feeding with native mast was used to determine if food was limiting for squirrel populations in east-central …

  3. The Effect of Habitat Fragmentation on Forest Mammals: An Experimental Analysis of Three Squirrel Distributions in the Agricultural Landscape of East Central Illinois

    … for generating distribution patterns of tree squirrels in the agricultural landscape of eastern Illinois. I surveyed mammalian species richness in 10 forest remnants and found that 7 of 16 species were present in all sites, with as many as 13 of the 16 species probably occurring within …

  4. Barrier Effects Of Roads And Traffic On Animal Occurrence, Space Use, And Movements

    … and canopy gaps on space use of Mt. Graham red squirrels and compared to the response of introduced, edge-tolerant Abert's squirrels (Sciurus aberti). Forest roads acted as partial barriers for red squirrels regardless of traffic volume likely due to avoidance of canopy gap created by roads, …
