Foraging strategies by omnivores: are black bears actively searching for ungulate neonates or are they simply opportunistic predators? (2011, background): “We also added random slopes for each of the 3 independent variables, to evaluate individual variations in the response of black bears to food resources (Hebblewhite and Merrill 2008).”
Multi-level functional responses for wildlife conservation: the case of threatened caribou in managed boreal forests (2012, background): “…that have been described to date have assessed changes in the selection among individuals as a function of variation in home-range characteristics, that is, at an interHR level (Mysterud & Ims 1998; Gillies et al. 2006; Hebblewhite & Merrill 2008; Herfindal et al. 2009; Houle et al. 2010).”
Comparative interpretation of count, presence–absence and point methods for species distribution models (2012, background): “As such, point methods provide a means to explore individual behaviours, such as the fine-scale spatial dependence between predator and prey (e.g. harbour porpoise – fish schools and wolf kill sites: Embling et al. 2005; Webb, Hebblewhite & Merrill 2008) and address questions regarding how preferenc”
Human Activity Differentially Redistributes Large Mammals in the Canadian Rockies National Parks (2011, methodology): “Wildlife data and habitat selection We obtained wolf and elk Global Positioning System (GPS) telemetry locations from previous research in the study area (Hebblewhite and Merrill 2007, Hebblewhite et al. 2008).”
Accounting for individual-specific variation in habitat-selection studies: Efficient estimation of mixed-effects models using Bayesian or frequentist computation (2018, background): “In particular, resource selection will not be constant across individuals, namely due to individual-specific preferences and/or functional responses in habitat selection (Mysterud and Ims, 1998; Hebblewhite and Merrill, 2008; Matthiopoulous et al., 2011; Aarts et al., 2013; Matthiopoulos et al., 201”
Shifting perceptions of risk and reward: Dynamic selection for human development by black bears in the western United States (2015, background): “We estimated individual selection coefficients from GLMMs to investigate factors associated with individual animal differences in bear selection for human development (Hebblewhite and Merrill, 2008 and Wagner et al., 2011).”
Flexible habitat selection by cougars in response to anthropogenic development (2014, background): “Along gradients of anthropogenic disturbance within cougar home ranges, functional responses may be the result of trade-offs between forage or prey availability and safety (Hebblewhite and Merrill, 2008; Herfindal et al., 2009).”
Distinguishing technology from biology: a critical review of the use of GPS telemetry data in ecology (2010, background): “…caribou (Dyer et al. 2001; Sawyer et al. 2006, 2009); understanding impacts of human recreation on wide-ranging carnivores (Whittington et al. 2005; Hebblewhite & Merrill 2008); and identification of habitat corridors for transboundary conservation of African elephants (Loxodonta africana; Graham…”
