In recent decades, feral horse (Equus caballus; horse) populations increased in sagebrush
(Artimesia spp.) ecosystems, especially within the Great Basin, to the point of exceeding …

Identifying the relevant spatial scale at which species respond to features in a landscape
(scale of effect) is a pressing research need as managers work to reduce biodiversity loss …

Background Drastic increases in wildfire size and frequency threaten western North
American sagebrush (Artemisia L. spp.) ecosystems. At relatively large spatial scales …

Long-term monitoring of natural resources is imperative for increasing the understanding of
ecosystem processes, services, and how to manage those ecosystems to maintain or …

Reliable demographic estimates hinge on the assumption that marking animals does not
alter their behavior, reproduction, or survival. Violations can bias inference and are …

Habitat loss is the most prevalent threat to biodiversity in North America. One of the most
threatened landscapes in the United States is the sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystem …

Understanding the behaviours and time budgets of translocated animals post‐release has
the potential to improve rearing and release protocols, and therefore survival rate. Otididae …

Wildlife populations are increasingly affected by natural and anthropogenic changes that
negatively alter biotic and abiotic processes at multiple spatiotemporal scales and therefore …

Population monitoring is important for investigating a variety of ecological questions, and N‐
mixture models are increasingly used to model population size (N) and trends (λ) while …

Survival of translocated prairie-grouse (Tympanuchus spp.) is often low in the first few weeks
or months following release into a novel environment. Understanding the processes and …
