When carnivores collide: a review of studies exploring the competitive interactions between bobcats Lynx rufus and coyotes Canis latrans
Bobcats Lynx rufus and coyotes Canis latrans are two widespread mesopredators with a
complex history of sympatry. The competitive interactions between these species are of …

Spatial and temporal structure of a mesocarnivore guild in midwestern North America
Carnivore guilds play a vital role in ecological communities by cascading trophic effects,
energy and nutrient transfer, and stabilizing or destabilizing food webs. Consequently, the …

Effects of roads, topography, and land use on forest cover dynamics in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest
Roads and topography can determine patterns of land use and distribution of forest cover,
particularly in tropical regions. We evaluated how road density, land use, and topography …

A continental scale trophic cascade from wolves through coyotes to foxes
Top‐down processes, via the direct and indirect effects of interspecific competitive killing (no
consumption of the kill) or intraguild predation (consumption of the kill), can potentially …

The truth about cats and dogs: Landscape composition and human occupation mediate the distribution and potential impact of non-native carnivores
Humans alter landscapes and native species distributions in many ways, including
alterations mediated via domestic pets. While the negative impacts of domestic cats are well …
