Effects of Predator Treatments, Individual Traits, and Environment on Moose Survival in Alaska (2011, background): “Gasaway et al. (1983) and Hayes et al. (2003) also reported an increase in survival of radiocollared adult moose following reductions in wolf densities.”
Developing a population target for an overabundant ungulate for ecosystem restoration (2011, background): “Although predator reductions positively affect caribou recruitment and in some cases abundance (Bergerud & Elliot 1986; Orians et al. 1997; Hayes et al. 2003), predators quickly recover once control has stopped, and predator control is much less acceptable to the public than it once was (Orians et a”
Adaptive management of biological systems: A review (2013, background): “It was particularly telling that only three projects in our final list (Waterfowl management (Williams et al., 1996), the Northwest Forest Plan (Stankey et al., 2003), and wolf management in the Yukon (Hayes et al., 2003) involved truly large-scale problems.”
Can we save large carnivores without losing large carnivore science (2017, background): “Although such experiments are expensive and difficult to achieve because of the logistical challenges arising from the massive scales that large carnivores utilise, they can and have been done in some places (e.g. Eldridge et al., 2002; Hayes et al., 2003; Hebblewhite et al., 2005; Allen et al., 201”
The role of biotic interactions in shaping distributions and realised assemblages of species: implications for species distribution modelling (2012, background): “For instance, in a controlled experiment in Northwestern Canada and Alaska it was shown that wolf (Canis lupus) predation is the main factor limiting recruitment of caribou (Rangifer tarandus) and moose (Alces alces), and survival of adult moose (Hayes et al., 2003).”
Effects of scale on interpreting life‐history characteristics of ungulates and carnivores (2006, background): “Systems where ungulates are held at low density in relation to carrying capacity (K) by predators (Gasaway et al., 1992; Bowyer et al., 1998a; Hayes et al., 2003) differ markedly from those in which predators are rare or absent.”
Managing wolves (Canis lupus) to recover threatened woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Alberta (2014, methodology): “Perhaps this is because welldesigned, long-term experimental studies are needed to disentangle the effects of predation from other factors (Orians et al. 1997; Hayes et al. 2003).”
