• Prey selection and dietary response by wolves in a high-density multi-species ungulate community (2011, background): “Comparing the results on multiple prey–predator systems referred to other 13 study areas where wild boar, red deer and roe deer are present (Western Alps, Capitani et al. 2004; Years 1988–1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 Wild boar juveniles in diet 0.83 0.94 0.92 0.95 0.91 n (scats) 77 98 89 73 32 juveniles”
• Disease risks and overabundance of game species (2006, background): “Abiotic factors such as drought or long periods of snow-lie can cause high mortality due to starvation and increased disease risk as animals are weakened and become aggregated on increasingly reduced areas of preferred habitat (e.g. Lawrence et al. 2004; Gazzola et al. 2005).”
