To bait or not to bait: A comparison of camera-trapping methods for estimating leopard Panthera pardus density (2014, background): “Each sampling occasion was defined as the 24-h period beginning and ending at midday, because leopards are mainly active between dusk and dawn (Balme et al., 2009a; Karanth and Sunquist, 2000; Martins and Harris, 2013; Ramesh et al., 2009), and the chosen sampling occasion therefore represents the a”
Impacts of People and Tigers on Leopard Spatiotemporal Activity Patterns in a Global Biodiversity Hotspot (2015, background): “However, several studies at different sites with comparatively low human presence, includingMalaysia and India, found that leopards and tigers have overlapping temporal activity patterns (Karanth and Sunquist, 2000; Kawanishi and Sunquist, 2004; Ramesh et al., 2012; Lynam et al., 2013).”
Do tigers displace leopards? If so, why? (2010, background): “: +47-48055664 Fax: +47-64968501 observed similar patterns between the species in space use and activity patterns (Karanth and Sunquist 2000), but differences in prey selection with respect to prey size (Karanth and Sunquist 1995).”
Dogs Canis familiaris as carnivores: their role and function in intraguild competition (2009, background): “…wild carnivores suggests that intraguild competition affects the persistence and abundance of carnivore populations and thus can have dramatic consequences for the structure of carnivore communities (Karanth & Sunquist, 2000; Linnell & Strand, 2000; Creel, Spong & Creel, 2001; Caro & Stoner, 2003).”
Evidence for the existence of a robust pattern of prey selection in food webs (2007, background): “Furthermore, it has been shown that prey size specialization can play a tremendous role in the coexistence of predators and thus maintaining biodiversity (Karanth & Sunquist 1995, 2000).”
Rusa unicolor (Artiodactyla: Cervidae) (2011, background): “R. unicolor constitutes 30.5% of prey items in tiger scats and 36.8% of tiger kills in Bandipur Tiger Reserve, southern India (Johnsingh 1983), and 24.9% and 28.6% in Nagarahole National Park, southern India (Karanth and Sunquist 1995, 2000).”
Effects of human–carnivore conflict on tiger (Panthera tigris) and prey populations in Lao PDR (2006, background): “When officers did access relatively fresh kills, measurements of drag distance, tracks as well as livestock size provided evidence that tigers were likely responsible (see Karanth & Sunquist, 2000 ).”
Large predators and their prey in a southern African savanna: a predator's size determines its prey size range (2004, background): “This does not imply, however, that larger predators specialize on larger prey and thereby promote resource partitioning within the guild, as studies on other predator guilds have suggested (Rosenzweig 1966; Gittleman 1985; Karanth & Sunquist 1995, 2000).”
Female tiger Panthera tigris home range size and prey abundance: important metrics for management (2014, unknown): “Choice of home range estimators depends on the question being addressed (Kie et al., 2010) and therefore we calculated home range as both the 95 and 100% MCPs (Smith et al., 1987; Chundawat et al., 1999; Karanth & Sunquist, 2000; Goodrich et al., 2010; Barlow et al., 2011).”
