    • Bringing the Black rhino back: Key factors for reintroduction success 

      Wielgus, Elodie; Mandinyenya, Bob; Wieprecht, Sashimi; Heurich, Marco Dietmar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Evaluating reintroduction success is fundamental to wildlife management and conservation. Movement affects animal fitness and survival and is the first response of reintroduced animals, making it an excellent indicator of ...
    • Identifying and correcting spatial bias in opportunistic citizen science data for wild ungulates in Norway 

      Cretois, Benjamin; Simmonds, Emily Grace; Linnell, John D. C.; van Moorter, Bram; Rolandsen, Christer M.; Solberg, Erling J.; Strand, Olav; Gundersen, Vegard; Roer, Ole; Rød, Jan Ketil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Many publications make use of opportunistic data, such as citizen science observation data, to infer large-scale properties of species’ distributions. However, the few publications that use opportunistic citizen science ...
    • Influence of roads on space use by European hares in different landscapes 

      Mayer, Martin; Fischer, Christina; Blaum, Niels; Sunde, Peter; Ullmann, Wiebke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Context Roads are ubiquitous in human inhabited landscapes, and can impact animal movement and population dynamics, due to barrier effects, road mortality, but also by providing resources at road verges. Thus, we need a ...
    • LiDAR reveals a preference for intermediate visibility by a forest-dwelling ungulate species 

      Zong, Xin; Wang, Tiejun; Skidmore, Andrew K.; Heurich, Marco Dietmar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Abstract 1. Visibility (viewshed) plays a significant and diverse role in animals' behaviour and fitness. Understanding how visibility influences animal behaviour requires the measurement of habitat visibility at spatial ...
    • Wolf habitat selection when sympatric or allopatric with brown bears in Scandinavia 

      Ordiz Fernandez, Andres Avelino; Uzal, Antonio; Milleret, Cyril Pierre; Sanz-Perez, Ana; Zimmermann, Barbara; Wikenros, Camilla; Wabakken, Petter; Kindberg, Jonas; Swenson, Jon; Sand, Håkan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Habitat selection of animals depends on factors such as food availability, landscape features, and intraand interspecific interactions. Individuals can show several behavioral responses to reduce competition for habitat, ...
