- EQUIPPED FOR LIFE: THE ADAPTIVE ROLE OF THE STRESS AXIS IN MALE MAMMALS (2005, unknown): “Dexamethasone resistance (i.e., GC concentrations do not decline as much as expected), may indicate that the animal has been chronically stressed (e.g., Brooke et al. 1994; Hik et al. 2001; Sapolsky 1983).”
- STRESS IN FREE-RANGING MAMMALS: INTEGRATING PHYSIOLOGY, ECOLOGY, AND NATURAL HISTORY (2005, background): “For example, arctic ground squirrels are more chronically stressed in boreal forests than in alpine meadows, which Hik et al. (2001) suggested was related to differences in predation risk between the 2 environments.”
