  1. 1. Claws and Effect : how Small Carnivore Richness Responds to Habitat Diversity and Ecological Productivity

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Emilia Arkdalen; [2023]
    Nyckelord :small carnivore; camera trap; occupancy model; species richness; productivity; habitat richness; habitat evenness;

    Sammanfattning : Species distribution and composition research has gained significance in light of global warming and its impact on biodiversity. Understanding the factors shaping species richness is crucial for wildlife ecology and conservation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Why are you not breeding? : a study on the reproductive success of captive wolverines (Gulo g. gulo)

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Författare :María Slof Pacilio; [2019]
    Nyckelord :breeding success; wolverine; reproduction; zoo; animal welfare; behavior; enrichment; training; zookeepers;

    Sammanfattning : Conservation biologists have long faced the very challenging task of large carnivore conservation. Both their hunting habits and their very specific ecology make their conservation particularly difficult. Wolverines (Gulo g. gulo) are a good example of this. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Risky places and risky times : vegetation cover and carnivore olfactory cues influence patch selection and antipredator behavior of African ungulates

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Noé Müller-Rowold; [2017]
    Nyckelord :predation risk; African ungulates; savanna; visibility; scats; Hluhluwe-iMfolozi; patch selection; large carnivore; hunting modes; vigilance; group size;

    Sammanfattning : Foraging behaviour and vigilance of African ungulates are considered to be influenced by their perception of predation risk. In this experiment, I tried to obtain a better understanding of the relative importance of spatial and temporal drivers of perceived predation risk for African ungulates of various sizes. LÄS MER
