- GRIZZLY BEAR DEMOGRAPHICS IN AND AROUND BANFF NATIONAL PARK AND KANANASKIS COUNTRY, ALBERTA (2005, result): “The body condition index (Cattet et al. 2002) of BRW males, but not females, was lower than that of a more productive nearby grizzly population (Jasper National Park), although both sexes in BRW showed depressed levels of luteinizing hormone, which may have disrupted reproductive functions (M. R.…”
- Scat detection dogs in wildlife research and management: application to grizzly and black bears in the Yellowhead ecosystem, Alberta, Canada (2004, background): “Cattet et al. (2002) found that grizzly bears in the study area have better body condition outside versus inside the national park and suspected that this is due to relatively low food availability in the old forest which characterizes the park.”
- Implications of a high-energy and low-protein diet on the body composition, fitness, and competitive abilities of black (Ursus americanus) and grizzly (Ursus arctos) bears (2011, methodology): “(1993); Clarkson and Liepins (1994); McLellan (1994); Miller et al.”
- Trends in body condition in polar bears (Ursus maritimus) from the Southern Hudson Bay subpopulation in relation to changes in sea ice (2016, methodology): “Cattet et al. (2002) validated the standardized residual as an index of body condition in polar bears by confirming its strong association with true body condition, defined as the combined mass of fat and skeletal muscle relative to body size, in 31 hunter-killed polar bears.”
