Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Wildlife Society Outstanding Edited Book Award for 2013! Winner of the Texas Chapter of The Wildlife Society Outstanding Book Award for 2011! Winner of a CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title Award for 2011! Biology and Management of White-tailed Deer organizes and presents information on the most studied large mammal species in the world. The book covers the evolutionary history of the species, its anatomy, physiology, and nutrition, population dynamics, and ecology across its vast range (from central Canada through northern South America). The book then discusses the history of management of white-tailed deer, beginning with early Native Americans and progressing through management by Europeans and examining population lows in the early 1900s, restocking efforts through the mid 1900s, and recent, overabundant populations that are becoming difficult to manage in many areas. Features: Co-published with the Quality Deer Management Association Compiles valuable information for white-tailed deer enthusiasts, managers, and biologists Written by an authoritative author team from diverse backgrounds Integrates white-tailed deer biology and management into a single volume Provides a thorough treatment of white-tailed deer antler biology Includes downloadable resources with color images The backbone of many state wildlife management agencies' policies and a featured hunting species through much of their range, white-tailed deer are an important species ecologically, socially, and scientifically in most areas of North America. Highly adaptable and now living in close proximity to humans in many areas, white-tailed deer are both the face of nature and the source of conflict with motorists, home-owners, and agricultural producers. Capturing the diverse aspects of white-tailed deer research, Biology and Management of White-tailed Deer is a reflection of the resources invested in the study of the species’ effects on ecosystems, predator-prey dynamics, population regulation, foraging behavior, and browser physiology.

This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) populations in the United States have increased in recent years, particularly in urban and suburban landscapes where traditional measures of population control are difficult to implement. As a result of rapid urban development in the last several years, the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center (JSC) located southeast of the Houston, Texas metroplex has become a refuge for an increasing, isolated urban white-tailed deer population. The use of the immuno contraceptive SpayVac[subscriptTM] has been proposed as a feasible measure in controlling the JSC deer population; however, the potential effects of the vaccine on deer movements are unknown. Furthermore, there is a need to estimate deer densities when using intensive management practices (e.g., contraceptive program) which requires an assessment of methods to estimate urban deer densities. The objectives of my study were to: (1) Compare female movements and ranges between deer treated with SpayVac[subscriptTM] versus non-treated (control) deer, (2) Determine if the timing of SpayVac[subscriptTM] treatment affected efficacy, and (3) Compare mark-resight and distance sampling methodologies in estimating urban deer densities. I captured and radio-marked 59 adult female deer at JSC. I found annual ranges between treated (mean 95% kernel = 82 ha, mean 50% kernel = 11 ha) and control (mean 95% kernel = 77 ha, mean 50% kernel =11 ha) deer were similar (P> 0.05). Furthermore, I found daily movements between treated (mean = 430 m) and control (mean = 403 m) deer also were similar (P> 0.05). The use of SpayVac[subscriptTM] did not alter movements and ranges of treated deer, and is unlikely to increase deer-vehicle collisions due to increased movements. I found the timing efficacy (i.e., time needed for vaccine to prevent pregnancy) of SpayVac[subscriptTM] was 0% for does treated closer to the breeding season than previously believed. For JSC, this expands the application time for SpayVac[subscriptTM] treatment to a 5-6 month window rather than the 2-3 month window as previously recommended. I found mark-resight estimates (160-174 deer) were congruent with minimum known alive estimates at JSC (158), whereas distance sampling estimates (83-114) were biased low. The use of non-random road counts likely resulted in the low estimates using distance sampling. I recommend that future efforts to monitor population densities at JSC use mark-resight estimates along with the on-going contraceptive program.

Book Synopsis White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus Virginianus) Fawn Survival and Seasonal Movement Patterns of White-tailed Deer and Coyotes (Canis Latrans) in the Cleveland Metropolitan Area by : Sara I. Kennedy
Download or read book White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus Virginianus) Fawn Survival and Seasonal Movement Patterns of White-tailed Deer and Coyotes (Canis Latrans) in the Cleveland Metropolitan Area written by Sara I. Kennedy and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both does and fawns used natural habitat out of proportion with availability. Both showed little seasonal change in habitat use or selection, although some does increased their use of open habitat post-parturition. Habitat use by fawns showed more variation between individuals than between seasons. Coyotes showed substantial individual variation in all spatial metrics, but a majority increased their use of forested habitat during the hiding period. Seasonal overlap indices varied from 6.2% to 82.5% for home ranges and from 0.0% to 42.9% for core use areas. Improved estimates of population parameters for urban white-tailed deer can aid in management of this potentially overabundant species. Our work demonstrates that fawn survival can be high in urban areas and reinforces the link between urban parkland and surrounding residential areas for managing urban wildlife.

Book Synopsis Camera Traps in Animal Ecology by : Allan F. O'Connell
Download or read book Camera Traps in Animal Ecology written by Allan F. O'Connell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remote photography and infrared sensors are widely used in the sampling of wildlife populations worldwide, especially for cryptic or elusive species. Guiding the practitioner through the entire process of using camera traps, this book is the first to compile state-of-the-art sampling techniques for the purpose of conducting high-quality science or effective management. Chapters on the evaluation of equipment, field sampling designs, and data analysis methods provide a coherent framework for making inferences about the abundance, species richness, and occupancy of sampled animals. The volume introduces new models that will revolutionize use of camera data to estimate population density, such as the newly developed spatial capture–recapture models. It also includes richly detailed case studies of camera trap work on some of the world’s most charismatic, elusive, and endangered wildlife species. Indispensible to wildlife conservationists, ecologists, biologists, and conservation agencies around the world, the text provides a thorough review of the subject as well as a forecast for the use of remote photography in natural resource conservation over the next few decades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 4.1.1 Demographic significance Confined populations grow more rapidly than populations from which dispersal is permitted (Lidicker, 1975; Krebs, 1979; Tamarin et at., 1984), and demography in island populations where dispersal is restricted differs greatly from nearby mainland populations (Lidicker, 1973; Tamarin, 1977, 1978; Gliwicz, 1980), clearly demonstrating the demographic signi ficance of dispersal. The prevalence of dispersal in rapidly expanding populations is held to be the best evidence for presaturation dispersal. Because dispersal reduces the growth rate of source populations, it is generally believed that emigration is not balanced by immigration, and that mortality of emigrants occurs as a result of movement into a 'sink' of unfavourable habitat. If such dispersal is age- or sex-biased, the demo graphy of the population is markedly affected, as a consequence of differ ences in mortality in the dispersive sex or age class. Habitat heterogeneity consequently underlies this interpretation of dispersal and its demographic consequences, although the spatial variability of environments is rarely assessed in dispersal studies.

Book Synopsis Resource Selection by Animals by : B.F. Manly
Download or read book Resource Selection by Animals written by B.F. Manly and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have written this book as a guide to the design and analysis of field studies of resource selection, concentrating primarily on statistical aspects of the comparison of the use and availability of resources of different types. Our intended audience is field ecologists in general and, in particular, wildlife and fisheries biologists who are attempting to measure the extent to which real animal populations are selective in their choice of food and habitat. As such, we have made no attempt to address those aspects of theoretical ecology that are concerned with how animals might choose their resources if they acted in an optimal manner. The book is based on the concept of a resource selection function (RSF), where this is a function of characteristics measured on resourceunits such that its value for a unit is proportional to the probability of that unit being used. We argue that this concept leads to a unified theory for the analysis and interpretation of data on resource selection and can replace many ad hoc statistical methods that have been used in the past.
