Lion hunting behaviour and vegetation structure in an African savanna (2013, unknown): “We then used published body masses of prey species (Smith et al. 2003) to examine whether the results differed when we grouped prey as ‘small’ (<100 kg; Aepyceros melampus, Phacochoerus africanus, and Struthio camelus) o r ‘large’ (>100 kg; Tragelaphus strepsiceros, Connochaetes taurinus, Kobus…”

Length–mass allometry in snakes (2013, background): “Greater accessibility to data has enhanced the compilation of size data for some of the major vertebrate taxa (Smith et al., 2003; Olden, Hogan & Zanden, 2007; Meiri, 2008; Olson et al., 2009), and these datasets have allowed us to search further for ecological and evolutionary processes involving s”

Precipitation and large herbivorous mammals I: estimates from present-day communities (2010, background): “…from published literature sources (Janis, 1988, 1995; Janis and Fortelius, 1988; Nowak, 1991; Wilson and Ruff, 1999; Fortelius and Solounias, 2000; Smith et al., 2003; Wilson and Reeder, 2005; Myers et al., 2007; NatureServe, 2007), and complemented these with unpublished data (from M.

The generality of the island rule reexamined (2006, methodology): “Our analysis of the data of Smith et al. (2003) suggests ancestral body size may not be of overwhelming importance for other mammalian clades.”
Pleistocene Overkill and North American Mammalian Extinctions (2015, background): “Body weight estimates are from Grayson (2015) and Smith et al.
