Habitat Selection of a Large Herbivore at High Density and Without Predation: Trade-off between Forage and Cover? (2009, background): “Vertical cover is composed of deciduous and coniferous overstories that reduce exposure to adverse climatic conditions (Ager et al. 2003; Mysterud and Østbye 1999), whereas lateral cover decreases predation risk by reducing prey detectability (Tufto et al. 1996).”
Human Activity Differentially Redistributes Large Mammals in the Canadian Rockies National Parks (2011, background): “Other research has compared human activity levels between circadian cycles, i.e., day vs. night (Schultz and Bailey 1978, Ciucci et al. 1997, Ager et al. 2003, Theuerkauf et al. 2003) or between different activity-level trails/ roads, i.e., high vs. low activity (Rost and Bailey 1979, Thurber et…”
Behavioral Responses of North American Elk to Recreational Activity (2009, result): “Activity budgets of elk during control periods were consistent with the literature on elk circadian cycles (Green and Bear 1990, Ager et al. 2003, Kie et al. 2005).”
Habitat selection by mule deer during migration: effects of landscape structure and natural-gas development (2012, background): “In addition, elk tend to avoid roads and other human activities (Johnson et al. 2000, Stewart et al. 2002, Ager et al. 2003, Long et al. 2008).”
Scales of movement by elk (Cervus elaphus) in response to heterogeneity in forage resources and predation risk (2005, unknown): “Similar to our observations, crepuscular transitions between resting and foraging areas for elk on the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range in Oregon, USA coincided with both a sharp increase in movement rates and upslope movements (Ager et al. 2003).”
Accounting for animal movement in estimation of resource selection functions: sampling and data analysis. (2009, methodology): “One reason that this may be occurring is that cervids are known to increase their movement during the crepuscular period (Green and Bear 1990, Ager et al. 2003).”
