DOI: 10.1002/ece3.2845
Abstract: Abstract Female white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are thought to choose between two behavioral strategies to maximize the quality of potential mates: sit and wait, characterized by concentrating activity within a restricted area, and excursive behavior,… read more here.

Risky movements? Natal dispersal does not decrease survival of a large herbivore
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7227
Abstract: Abstract Natal dispersal is assumed to be a particularly risky movement behavior as individuals transfer, often long distances, from birth site to site of potential first reproduction. Though, because this behavior persists in populations, it… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8084
Abstract: Abstract White‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) populations have recovered to about 30 million animals in the United States, but land cover has changed during the interval of recovery. To address the relationship between deer densities and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8993
Abstract: Abstract Studies in ecology, evolution, and conservation often rely on noninvasive samples, making it challenging to generate large amounts of high‐quality genetic data for many elusive and at‐risk species. We developed and optimized a Genotyping‐in‐Thousands… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9125
Abstract: Abstract Although most prey have multiple predator species, few studies have quantified how prey respond to the temporal niches of multiple predators which pose different levels of danger. For example, intraspecific variation in diel activity… read more here.

Spatiotemporal patterns of male and female white‐tailed deer on a hunted landscape

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9277
Abstract: Abstract Resource selection in sexually dimorphic ungulates is at least partially explained by sex‐specific resource requirements and risk aversion strategies. Females generally spend more time in areas with less risk and abundant, high‐quality forage due… read more here.

Variation in adult and pup wolf diets at natal den sites is influenced by forest composition and configuration

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9648
Abstract: Abstract Although wolves are wide‐ranging generalist carnivores throughout their life cycle, during the pup‐rearing season wolf activity is focused on natal den sites where pup survival depends upon pack members provisioning food. Because prey availability… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9711
Abstract: Abstract In heterogeneous landscapes, resource selection constitutes a crucial link between landscape and population‐level processes such as density. We conducted a non‐invasive genetic study of white‐tailed deer in southern Finland in 2016 and 2017 using… read more here.

Discordant response of spider communities to forests disturbed by deer herbivory and changes in prey availability

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.1703
Abstract: Despite the breadth of research on impacts of dense ungulate populations and invasive plants on native vegetation, work involving indirect effects on spider communities is explicitly lacking. Forest spiders depend on palatable insect prey and… read more here.

Implications of the forage maturation hypothesis for activity of partially migratory male and female deer
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Ecosphere"
DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2050
Abstract: Partial migration is common in a large variety of taxa in seasonally variable environments. Understanding the mechanisms underlying migration is important, as migration affects individual fitness. Migratory herbivores benefit from delayed forage maturation and hence… read more here.
