• Estimating low-density snowshoe hare populations using fecal pellet counts (2002, methodology): “Krebs et al. (1987, 2001) used long (5.08 × 305 cm) rectangular plots to monitor pellet accumulation, reporting that these dimensions provide lower variance than plots of other shapes or sizes.”
• Coyote prey selection and community stability during a decline in food supply (2005, methodology): “Hare fecal pellets were counted on 126 plots within the trapping grid to calibrate pellet counts with the mark /recapture estimate (Krebs et al. 2001, Murray et al. 2002).”
