Animal dispersal of American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.)
… ginseng berries using infrared, motion-activated wildlife cameras in the field and observed songbird digestive behavior in captivity. Thrushes were found to most frequently remove berries in the field and regurgitate viable seeds, on average, 16 minutes after ingestion. In Chapter 3, small mammal …

Habitat Use by Boreal Mammals in Response to Salvage Logging After an Insect Outbreak
… as it may disrupt forest succession and alter wildlife habitat. I examined habitat use by moose (Alces americanus), snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus), lynx (Lynx canadensis), coyotes (Canis latrans), and little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus) in response to salvage logging after a bark beetle …

Small mammal microhabitat use and species composition at a wildlife crossing structure compared with nearby forest
… or acting as complete connectivity barriers. Wildlife crossing structures (WCS) can increase the permeability of roads, allowing animals to move safely between habitats. Small mammals are especially vulnerable to the effects of reduced connectivity because of their limited mobility; however, …

Mammalian habitat use along a residential development gradient in northern Colorado
… of exurban development on mammalian habitat use, wildlife cameras were placed along a unique development gradient designed to capture landscape permeability in a rapidly growing rural region of Colorado. Multiple-season species occupancy and relative activity (frequency of detections) were …

Between a Rock and a Hard Place: An Investigation of Rock Squirrel (Otospermophilus variegatus) Behavioral Response to Anthropogenic Change
… were extracted from videos obtained from wildlife cameras placed outside of occupied burrows at the study sites. For statistical analysis, the main unit of replication was a camera placed at a burrow on a given day (N = 234). I used nested ANOVA to test for differences in squirrel behavior …

Supplementary refuge as a tool for recovering small mammals and reptiles after fire
… for two consecutive summer seasons, and wildlife cameras were used to continuously monitor small mammal activity for 15 months. Woody debris treatments (i.e., structure and structure + predation) supported significantly higher abundances of reptiles compared to the control. Small mammal …
