Collective Vigilance in the Greater Kudu: Towards a Better Understanding of Synchronization Patterns (2012, background): “Although foraging strategies and population dynamics in kudus have received attention (OwenSmith 1994; Owen-Smith & Mason 2005), we know little on social organization in this species.”
Is life-history buffering or lability adaptive in stochastic environments? (2009, background): “…levels by high rates of predation, nest survival of North American ducks (Hoekman et al. 2002) and adult survival of some African ungulates (Owen-Smith and Mason 2005) also have a large impact on population growth, but their high variability over time provides further evidence against the…”
Savanna herbivore dynamics in a livestock-dominated landscape. II: Ecological, conservation, and management implications of predator restoration (2007, background): “…rainfall, and associated vegetation changes (Owen-Smith and Ogutu, 2003; Ogutu and Owen-Smith, 2003; Dunham et al., 2004), as well as to increasing predation, due indirectly to the installation of wells in drier areas (Harrington et al., 1999; Owen-Smith and Mason, 2005; OwenSmith and Mills, 2006).”
Impact of Spatial and Temporal Variation in Calf Survival on the Growth of Elk Populations (2007, unknown): “Some vital rates are relatively constant over time and space, whereas others are inherently highly variable (Gaillard and Yoccoz 2003, Owen-Smith and Mason 2005).”
