Roads and supplemental feeding affect home-range size of Slovenian red deer more than natural factors (2012, background): “…and other interspecific interactions; as well as sex, reproductive status, population density, and the mating system (Anderson et al. 2005; Börger et al. 2006; Dahle and Swenson 2003a, 2003b; Gehrt and Fritzell 1997; McLoughlin and Ferguson 2000; Moyer et al. 2007; Mysterud et al. 2001).”
Range fidelity: The missing link between caribou decline and habitat alteration? (2010, background): “We suggest that caribou using a landscape that is increasingly affected by natural disturbances could possibly increase home-range size to maintain a minimal amount of suitable habitat within its range (McLoughlin and Ferguson, 2000).”
Habitat selection by black bears in an intensively logged boreal forest (2008, background): “Territoriality is expressed in diverse avoidance and aggressive behaviours, and can result in the exclusion of potential competitors (Horner and Powell 1990; McLaughlin and Ferguson 2000).”
Prey density, environmental productivity and home-range size in the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) (2005, background): “This is an almost universal finding among mammalian carnivore home-range studies (Sandell, 1989; Powell, 1994; McLoughlin & Ferguson, 2000) and probably reflects both the larger body size of male lynx (they are c. 25% larger) and the predicted sex differences in reproductive strategies of the two…”
Intraspecific Variation in Home Range Overlap with Habitat Quality: A Comparison among Brown Bear Populations (2004, background): “Food is often cited as an important limiting factor determining the size of an individual's home range (review in McLoughlin and Ferguson, 2000).”
Space use of moose in relation to food availability (2005, background): “Females with young in summer may have sought highquality forage and also have adopted predator-avoidance strategies that in turn affected space use (Miquelle et al. 1992; McLoughlin and Ferguson 2000; Bowyer 2004).”
Social influences on ranging patterns among chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes verus) in the Taï National Park, Côte d'Ivoire (2003, background): “…size cannot be explained by changes in fruit abundance, it appears unlikely that home-range size in this study simply reflects the metabolic needs of the group, as suggested by optimality models for home-range size (Maher and Lott, 1995; McNab, 1963, see also McLoughlin and Ferguson, 2000).”
Home Range and Frugivory Patterns of Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda (2003, background): “Habitat use is related to many variables, including requirements and constraints according to the species’ biology, abundance and distribution of resources, population density, and competition with conspecifics and other species (Dunbar, 1988; McLoughlin and Ferguson, 2000; Oates, 1987).”
