1. A field-based estimation of eagle predation and scavenging on reindeer calves : towards mitigating human-wildlife conflicts
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : Eagle predation on semi-domesticated reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) calves, both golden (Aquila chrysaetos) and white-tailed eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla) is a well-known issue in Sweden. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding the balance between scavenging and hunting and the role that each of the eagle species has in this issue. LÄS MER
2. What makes for a good location? : Terrain ruggedness and reindeer drive detection of Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) by camera traps in northern Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : As all large carnivores in Europe, the Eurasian lynx’s presence in a landscape now dominated by human activities often leads to conflictual situations and management challenges. To overcome these issues, different monitoring programs are developed all over Europe to assess for the abundance and distribution of this elusive feline. LÄS MER
3. Effects of semi-domesticated reindeer’s maternal condition on calf survival
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and ManagementSammanfattning : Semi-domesticated reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) husbandry in Sweden depends largely on sustainable management and productivity of the herd. Herd productivity is determined by the survival of the herd’s offspring from each year, which is affected by factors such as weather conditions, forage abundancy and predation. LÄS MER
4. Maternal body condition : effect on time of calving, offspring survival and body weight in reindeer
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and ManagementSammanfattning : The reindeer husbandry faces many challenges and one of the most crucial is the high calf mortality. As some reindeer herding districts have their calving grounds based in the forest, they are at high risk of losing a large number of the calves each season to brown bear predation as the bears also rely heavily on the forest as their natural habitat.

5. Viktiga faktorer för bevarandet av järv
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public HealthSammanfattning : Järv är en av de viktigaste predatorerna på semidomesticerad ren i Sverige idag och bevarandet av järv innebär en konflikt med rennäringen. I den här litteraturstudien undersöks järvens födosöksbeteende och hur det påverkas av närvaron av varg och lodjur samt om konflikten mellan järven och rennäringen kan minskas. LÄS MER
