Building a Predictive Model of Delmarva Fox Squirrel (Sciurus niger cinereus) Occurrence Using Infrared Photomonitors
… such as the federally endangered Delmarva fox squirrel (DFS; Sciurus niger cinereus). The ability to predict or identify suitable habitat is a necessary component of this species' recovery. Habitat identification is also an important consideration when evaluating impacts of land development …

Resource Selection, Home Range and Habitat Associations of the Southern Fox Squirrel (<i>Sciurus niger niger</i>) in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain of Virginia
The southern fox squirrel (Sciurus niger niger) has the northernmost part of its range in Virginia. For the past 100 years, southern fox squirrels have been declining due to habitat fragmentation, cover type conversion, and fire suppression. Decrease in growing season burns, hardwood encroachment …

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

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 all …

Urban wildlife species detection, species richness, and community shifts along a gradient of urbanization in an agriculturally embedded landscape using passive and active methods
… with increasing impervious cover, except for Fox Squirrels (Sciurus niger), which are likely responding to increased tree cover. My research highlights the need to understand species specific responses, taxa specific responses, and how city characteristics influence wildlife’s responses to …
