DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2931
Abstract: Infection patterns linked to age and sex are crucial to predict the population dynamic effects of diseases in long-lived species. How such demographic patterns of infection arise is often multifactorial, although the cause is commonly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3959
Abstract: Temperature increases due to climate change have affected the distribution and severity of diseases in natural systems, causing outbreaks that can decimate host populations. Host identity, diversity, and associated microbiome can affect host responses to… read more here.

Hunter perceptions toward chronic wasting disease: Implications for harvest and management
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Wildlife Society Bulletin"
DOI: 10.1002/wsb.761
Abstract: Previous human dimension research has reported negative perceptions among hunters toward Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) and disease-related regulations that may limit hunter participation, reduce harvest, and generally complicate management. During 2013, we surveyed 1,524 Maryland,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.2c00155
Abstract: Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease of cervids (deer, elk, moose, etc.). It spreads readily from CWD-contaminated environments and among wild cervids. As of 2022, North American CWD has been found in 29… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-18229-7
Abstract: The successful mitigation of emerging wildlife diseases may involve controversial host culling. For livestock, ‘preemptive host culling’ is an accepted practice involving the removal of herds with known contact to infected populations. When applied to… read more here.
