BACKGROUND Whereas early studies of animal evolution focused principally on the
adaptations of different species to their physical environment, more recent studies have …

While the mechanistic links between animal movement and population dynamics are
ecologically obvious, it is much less clear when knowledge of animal movement is a …

The study of animal movement has always been a key element in ecological science,
because it is inherently linked to critical processes that scale from individuals to populations …

Climate change leads to several environmental stresses that affects livestock production. In
order to re-store the productive potential the animals need to adapt to the existing climatic …

Electronic tracking provides a unique way to document behaviour by cows on a continuous
basis. Over 2 years 17 beef cows with calves were fitted with global positioning system …

For many species of animals, obtaining basic life‐history data is difficult and even some
common aspects, such as diet choice, remain unknown. To overcome this problem, we …

Simple Summary The impacts of extensively managed sheep on the natural environment
has received little attention in comparison to beef and dairy cattle in New Zealand. In …

To examine outbreaks of mange in raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides) with respect to
population density, we analyzed camera trap videos, and isolated mites from raccoon dog …

Information on contacts between individuals within a population is crucial to inform disease
control strategies, via parameterisation of disease spread models. In this study we …

The behaviour of free‐ranging animals is difficult to study, especially on the large spatial and
temporal scales relevant to long‐lived large species. Animal‐borne video and …
