• Activity patterns of predator and prey: a simultaneous study of GPS-collared wolves and moose (2011, background): “Wolves have recently re-colonized south-central Scandinavia after being exterminated in the mid-to-late 1800s (Wabakken et al. 2001; Sand et al. 2006a).”
• Building biological realism into wolf management policy: the development of the population approach in Europe (2012, background): “The unassisted reappearance of reproducing wolf populations in Scandinavia, the Alps, and eastern Germany (Wabakken et al., 2001; Weber, 2003) and the documentation of individual wolves in areas distant from any breeding population (such as Austria, northern Germany, the French Pyrenees), testifies ”
• Survival rates and causes of mortality in Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in multi-use landscapes (2006, background): “…lynx, brown bear Ursus arctos, wolverine Gulo gulo and wolf Canis lupus) occur mainly outside protected areas in the surrounding matrix of multi-use landscapes (Swenson et al., 1994; Landa et al., 2000; Linnell et al., 2001; Wabakken et al., 2001) where the potential for diverse conflicts is high.”
• Dispersal patterns, social structure and mortality of wolves living in agricultural habitats in Spain (2007, background): “In Europe, the only dispersal data available are from Scandinavia (Wabakken et al., 2001) and Finland (Kojola et al.”
• Large carnivores, moose, and humans: a changing paradigm of predator management in the 21st century. (2003, background): “Wolf biologists working in Scandinavia have reported the impression of an increased support for wolves, although they could not substantiate it (Wabakken et al. 2001).”
• Long-Distance Dispersal of a Rescued Wolf From the Northern Apennines to the Western Alps (2009, background): “This is the first report of long-distance dispersal of wolves in the human-dominated landscapes of southern Europe, providing conclusive evidence that the expanding wolf population in the Alps originates from the Apennine source population through natural recolonization.”
• Large carnivore expansion in Europe is associated with human population density and land cover changes (2021, background): “Those occupying central Spain dispersed from the Cantabrian Mountains (Silva et al., 2018), and in Sweden, the wolf population is descended from a few individuals that came from the Finnish-Russian border region (Linnell et al., 2005; Wabakken et al., 2001).”
• A quantitative summary of attitudes toward wolves and their reintroduction (1972-2000) (2002, background): “This contradicts a recent perception among some ecologists that wolf support has recently grown (e.g., Wabakken et al. 2001).”
