A comparison and critique of different scat‐analysis methods for determining carnivore diet (2011, background): “Other authors give the volume or mass of the food items found in the scats (e.g. Capitani et al. 2004, Forman 2005).”
Prey selection and dietary response by wolves in a high-density multi-species ungulate community (2011, background): “In European studies, wolves were observed to select young wild boar (i.e. <1 year) in many study areas (see Okarma 1995 for a review; Gula 2004; Jędrzejewski et al. 2000) and in particular individuals between 10 and 35 kg (Meriggi et al. 1996; Capitani et al. 2004).”
Anti-predator behaviour, space use and habitat selection in female roe deer during the fawning season in a wolf area (2008, background): “Wolves were present in the Arezzo Province at high densities, that is three wolves per 100 km2 (Apollonio et al., 2004), and their mean pack size was 4.0 0.6 (Capitani et al., 2004).”
