The mating system of the brown bear Ursus arctos (2012, background): “2006), such as reproductive success and survival (Støen et al. 2005).”
Should I stay or should I go? Natal dispersal in the brown bear (2007, background): “The increased overlap in a matriarchy indicates that related females are tolerant of each other (Støen et al. 2005), and related neighbouring individuals should be more likely than neighbouring nonkin females to facilitate philopatric behaviour of juvenile females.”
Ultimate and proximate mechanisms underlying the occurrence of bears close to human settlements: review and management implications (2014, unknown): “…kin-related social organization, inversely density-dependent homerange sizes and natal dispersal (Rogers 1987, Blanchard & Knight 1991, Mattson et al. 1992, Støen et al. 2005, 2006, Dahle et al. 2006, Ordiz et al. 2008) further supports a despotic rather than an ideal-free distribution in bears.”
Terrain use by an expanding brown bear population in relation to age, recreational resorts and human settlements (2007, background): “From 1985 to 2002 a total of 55 female and 51 male brown bears 2 years and older (i.e. post weaning) carried radio collars within the study area (Støen et al., 2005).”
Brown bears possess anal sacs and secretions may code for sex (2011, background): “There is evidence that freeranging brown bears can recognize and/or discriminate between individuals, because related females show more home-range overlap than unrelated females; suggesting that related females tolerate each other more than unrelated females (Støen et al., 2005).”
Reproductive success of female leopards Panthera pardus: the importance of top-down processes (2013, background): “This suggests that parental care extends beyond the weaning period, which in female leopards is likely to be manifested through the kin-related spatial structure of females (Støen et al. 2005).”
Genetics and conservation of European brown bears Ursus arctos (2011, background): “Støen et al. (2005) documented spatial structure in the relationships of female brown bears in Sweden: related females apparently defend common ‘territories’ against unrelated females, and home range overlap is positively correlated with relatedness.”
