- Roles of Raptors in a Changing World: From Flagships to Providers of Key Ecosystem Services (2016, background): “Both issues would represent an increase in the availability of carcasses in the wild (Selva et al., 2003; Wilmers and Post, 2006).”
- Ecosystem Services Provided by Birds (2008, unknown): “…(Norman et al. 1994); willet and turnstone, Scolopacidae; gulls, Laridae; plovers, Charadriidae (Gochfeld & Burger 1980); raptors, Accipitridae (Selva et al.2003, 2005; Selva & Fortuna 2007); woodpeckers, Picidae (Servin et al. 2001); and passerines, such as crows, Corvidae, and tits, Paridae…”
- Soil and vegetation nutrient response to bison carcasses in Białowieża Primeval Forest, Poland (2007, background): “This affects the nutrient distribution along the gradient, as the centre of the bison carcass often changed position due to dragging by wolves and the carcass remains were usually scattered (Selva et al. 2003).”
- Biogeographical variation in the population density of wild boar (Sus scrofa) in western Eurasia (2006, background): “…the scavenging frequency by wild boar was fairly high (37% of ungulate carcasses were visited by this species) and boar increased scavenging on days with very low temperatures and deep snow cover, when other vertebrate scavengers were rarely seen at carrion (Selva et al., 2003; Selva, 2004).”
- Prey choice and diet of wolves related to ungulate communities and wolf subpopulations in Poland (2012, background): “For instance, Selva et al. (2003) reported that European bison carcasses were still well visible and utilized by scavengers (including wolves) 4 months after a bison’s death.”
