Prey choice and diet of wolves related to ungulate communities and wolf subpopulations in Poland (2012, background): “Wolf diet composition is known to vary over time in response to changes in ungulate abundance (for the magnitude of that variation in central and eastern Europe [see Jędrzejewska and Jędrzejewski 1998; Sidorovich et al. 2003]).”
Distribution and density of moose in relation to landscape characteristics: effects of scale (2005, background): “Wolves and bears are intolerant of human habitation (Weaver et al. 1996; Sidorovich et al. 2003; Theuerkauf et al. 2003) and are reduced or eliminated near towns via hunting and trapping .”
Warring brothers: The complex interactions between wolves (Canis lupus) and dogs (Canis familiaris) in a conservation context (2014, unknown): “…way in which dogs are kept or used, and the existence of specialized problem packs are four factors that are often cited as being important for determining the numbers of dogs killed (Cuesta et al., 1991; Pozio et al., 2001; Kojola and Kuittinen, 2002; Sidorovich et al., 2003; Kojola et al., 2004).”
Food habits of the world's grey wolves (2016, background): “Prey switching to domestic species by grey wolves has also been demonstrated in Belarus, where a sixfold increase in livestock consumption was recorded when wild ungulate densities were at a low level (Sidorovich et al. 2003).”
Habitat variables associated with wolf (Canis lupus) distribution and abundance in northern Poland (2004, background): “Domestic animals fell as prey to wolves, because they were more easily available for the predators than the wild ungulates (Ciucci & Boitani, 1998; Sidorovich et al., 2003).”
Prey selection and dietary response by wolves in a high-density multi-species ungulate community (2011, result): “…1995; Ciucci et al. 1996; Meriggi et al. 1996, Capitani et al. 2004; Mattioli et al. 2004), a similar result was found only in a few other locations of Eastern Europe like Estonia (Kübarsepp and Valdmann 2003), Russia (Rusakov and Timofeeva 1984 in Okarma 1995) and Belarus (Sidorovich et al. 2003).”
Large carnivore impacts are context-dependent (2017, background): “Impacts can be direct (Packer et al. 2009; Virgos and Travaini 2005) or indirect through effects on other species or habitat (Rogala et al. 2011; Sidorovich et al. 2003).”
