Genetic nature of eastern wolves: Past, present and future (2006, background): “Intense predator control programs along with fur and forest harvesting in the 1800s led to declines in the number of wolves and large ungulates in southern and eastern Ontario (Peterson 1955; Kolenosky and Standfield 1975; Franzmann and Schwartz 1997; Boitani 2003).”
The impact of taxonomic change on conservation: Does it kill, can it save, or is it just irrelevant? (2009, background): “Not listed All listed Central Europe Revision of Sorbus (Meyer et al., 2005), led to many new species receiving attention from local protection agencies Increased conservation Scurvy-Grass Cochlearia bavarica (Vogt, 1985) Not listed Highly endangered Southern Bavaria Chromosome and morphological ana”
Residents’ support for wolf and bear conservation: the moderating influence of knowledge (2012, background): “Large charismatic carnivores have considerable cultural symbolism (Kellert et al. 1996; Mech and Boitani 2003; Bruskotter et al. 2009) and are often considered flagship species for broader conservation initiatives (Bowen-Jones and Entwistle 2002).”
Where Next? Group Coordination and Collective Decision Making by Primates (2011, background): “…mood of individuals (Heinroth 1911), e.g., vocalisations (Verreaux’s sifakas, Propithecus verreauxi: Trillmich et al. 2004; Canada geese, Branta canadensis: Raveling 1969) and stereotyped movements (Bewick’s swans, Cygnus columbianus: Black 1988; wolves, Canis lupus: Mech and Boitani 2003).”
Current status, distribution, and conservation of brown bear (Ursidae) and wild canids (gray wolf, golden jackal, and red fox; Canidae) in Turkey (2016, background): “The density of a gray wolf population in a given area is affected by three main factors: prey availability, source populations nearby, and human activities (Mech and Boitani, 2007).”
Group composition effects on aggressive interpack interactions of gray wolves in Yellowstone National Park (2015, background): “Although gray wolves have been extensively studied (Mech and Boitani 2003) and intraspecific strife is often the leading cause of natural mortality (Mech 1977; Mech et al.”
The Role of Affect in Public Support and Opposition to Wolf Management (2012, background): “Once systematically eliminated throughout the lower 48 U.S. states (Mech & Boitani, 2003; Lopez, 1978), wolves have been making a comeback in the Great Lakes and northern Rocky Mountain regions following their protection under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 and active reintroductions in the…”
