1. Wild boar and roe deer in conflict? : an analysis of interspecific interactions under different wild boar densities
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EcologySammanfattning : Roe deer and wild boar are both highly successful species of cervid found across much of Europe, and while similarities exist between them, to what extent do wild boar impact the daily activity pattern of roe deer at feeding sites? While a few studies explore interspecific interactions between ungulate species in Sweden, only a little research has been done on how wild boar and roe deer interact. This study aims to minimize the gap in knowledge surrounding these two species and the way they interact. LÄS MER
2. Infektiös keratokonjunktivit hos semidomesticerad ren (Rangifer tarandus tarandus)
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, SLU/Dept. of Clinical SciencesSammanfattning : Infektiös keratokonjunktivit, IKC, är en ögonsjukdom som drabbar flera arter, däribland ren. Sjukdomen rapporterades på ren för första gången för mer än 100 år sedan, men ännu är mycket okänt kring sjukdomsprevalens, sjukdomsframkallande agens och riskfaktorer för insjuknande. LÄS MER
3. Hjortdjurs (Cervidae) nyttjande av och beteende vid saltstensplatser i norska fjällen
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and HealthSammanfattning : Saltlicks are a common management practice for both wildlife and farm animals. In the Norwegian mountain areas these are typically intended for sheep on summer pasture but are used frequently by wildlife such as deer and reindeer. In 2016 the first European case of chronic wasting disease (CWD) was found in reindeer in Nordfjella, Norway. LÄS MER
4. How do stand composition and cervid densities influence the forest floor vegetation in a multi-cervid species context?
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : The cover of forest floor vascular plants has been decreasing in Sweden over recent decades. Cervid rely heavily on this vegetation for food. With this study, I showed that habitat type highly influences the quality and quantity of the forest floor vegetation. LÄS MER
5. The effect of forestry and cervid densities on annual growth of ericaceous shrub species
Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreSammanfattning : Ericaceous shrubs, such as bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus), cowberry (V. vitis-idaea), and heather (Calluna vulgaris), dominate the understory in Swedish forests. Their important role of providing forage for wild deer is well established. LÄS MER
