• Red deer (Cervus elaphus) spatial use in the Italian Alps: home range patterns, seasonal migrations, and effects of snow and winter feeding (2006, background): “Ungulate use of space and home range size is the end result of a combination of phenotypic plasticity and natural selection that reflects successful strategies to maximise individual fitness (rettie & messier 2001, white & garrott 2005).”
• Spatial Partitioning of Predation Risk in a Multiple Predator–Multiple Prey System (2009, background): “Predicted effects of wolf recolonization on mule deer have varied (Boyce 1993, White and Garrott 2005), and little effort has been devoted to quantifying those effects subsequent to recolonization (but see Husseman et al. 2003).”
• Restoring Yellowstone’s aspen with wolves (2007, methodology): “Wolf data from Smith et al. (2006); 1993–2004 elk data from White and Garrott (2005) ; and 2005–2006 elk data unpublished from Yellowstone National Park.”
• Disease risks and overabundance of game species (2006, background): “A second alternative consists in the rehabilitation of the ecological situations existing previously to human intervention (the complex coexistence of natural regulatory forces), for example re-introducing large predators that formerly inhabited the area (White and Garrott 2005).”
• Trophic cascades in Yellowstone: The first 15 years after wolf reintroduction (2012, background): “1B) (White and Garrott, 2005; unpublished data – Yellowstone National Park).”
• Relationships between direct predation and risk effects. (2008, background): “quantitative effects of wolves on elk dynamics [23, 24 ,47,25].”
• Pleistocene Park: Does re-wilding North America represent sound conservation for the 21st century? (2006, background): “represent sound conservation for the 21st century?”
