Environmental predictability as a cause and consequence of animal movement
The impacts of environmental predictability on the ecology and evolution of animal
movement have been the subject of vigorous speculation for several decades. Recently, the …

Evolutionary and ecological traps for brown bears Ursus arctos in human‐modified landscapes
Evolutionary traps, and their derivative, ecological traps, occur when animals make
maladaptive decisions based on seemingly reliable environmental cues, and are important …

The role of the brown bear Ursus arctos as a legitimate megafaunal seed disperser
Megafaunal frugivores can consume large amounts of fruits whose seeds may be dispersed
over long distances, thus, affecting plant regeneration processes and ecosystem functioning …

Seasonal and diel movement patterns of brown bears in a population in southeastern Europe
Most animals concentrate their movement into certain hours of the day depending on drivers
such as photoperiod, ambient temperature, inter‐or intraspecific competition, and predation …
