1. Wild boar feeding site effects on targeted and non-targeted species
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EcologySammanfattning : Wild boar (Sus scrofa) is an ungulate species that is increasing in Europe and Sweden, and with that causing conflicts and problems in agriculture. Wild boar are omnivores and are often rooting in the ground to find food items. LÄS MER
2. Utfodring av rovdjur i jakt- och viltturism : etiska och etologiska implikationer
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and HealthSammanfattning : The feeding of wild animals has been done as a management strategy: supplementary feeding and diversionary feeding are used to make more ungulates to survive the winter in Sweden and to drive them away from agriculture and farmlands. Wildlife feeding has expanded in recent years and is now also used as a tourism attraction to see wild predators in their natural habitat. LÄS MER
3. Supplementary feeding of game; an attitude survey of hunters, forest owners and farmers
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : Different stakeholders are affected by large ungulate densities in different ways and often have various goals with the management of ungulates. Some appreciate high ungulate densities, while others want to keep the densities low, and conflicts are imminent when different interests must be put against each other. LÄS MER
4. Winter feeding site choice of ungulates in relation to food quality
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : Supplementary feeding is a widespread practice in Sweden. In most cases, this is done in order to increase ungulate densities for hunting purposes. Forest regimes can also provide a high amount of natural food which influences densities. But high densities are not unproblematic and can cause several problems, e. LÄS MER
5. Greylag geese (Anser anser) : crop selection and spatial distribution around Sörfjärden, Södermanland
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EcologySammanfattning : A rapid population growth in Greylag geese (Anser anser) has led to a conflict between geese and farmers due to the foraging geese in agricultural fields which causes damage to crops by trampling and grazing. Culling cannot always be used as a management tool due to protection of the species and temporal restrictions of hunting seasons. LÄS MER
