Spatial and Temporal Structure of a Mesocarnivore Guild in Midwestern North America (2015, background): “Although gray foxes and red foxes may compete for resources, their similar body size suggests that the species are not a real danger to each other, which was also found between other canid pairs of similar size (Mitchell and Banks 2005, Di Bitetti et al. 2009).”
As clear as mud: A critical review of evidence for the ecological roles of Australian dingoes (2013, methodology): “…highest activity periods for top-predators usually coincide with the highest activity periods of their preferred prey and mesopredators usually avoid top-predators during these times at fine scales (e.g. Atwood et al., 2011; Hayward and Slotow, 2009; Mitchell and Banks, 2005; Ramesh et al., 2012).”
Dietary Niche Separation Between Sympatric Free-Ranging Domestic Dogs and Indian Foxes in Central India (2009, background): “Despite large global populations of dogs in rural or natural environments, only a handful of studies have quantified the diets of free-ranging dogs (Atickem 2003; Butler and du Toit 2002; Butler et al. 2004; Campos et al. 2007; Glen and Dickman 2008; Glen et al. 2006; Mitchell and Banks 2005).”
Interactions between a Top Order Predator and Exotic Mesopredators in the Australian Rangelands (2012, background): “Although dingoes are known to prey on smaller mammals such as rodents [37, 41, 44], they are not preferred stable prey items and may only be targeted during natural irruptions when they are plentiful.”
Remote video-camera traps measure habitat use and competitive exclusion among sympatric chimpanzee, gorilla and elephant in Loango National Park, Gabon (2012, background): “…1972, Morris 1996), it has also been studied in other species, where competitive exclusion was not seen at all temporal and/or spatial scales and was related to increased competitor density (Mitchell & Banks 2005) and reduced food availability (Eriksson 1979, Lambert 2002, Razgour et al. 2011).”
Seven considerations about dingoes as biodiversity engineers: the socioecological niches of dogs in Australia (2012, background): “2001; Gittleman and Gompper 2001), and adults of no native or threatened Australian species are outside the weight range of dog predation (Corbett 2001; Vernes et al. 2001; Mitchell and Banks 2005).”
Predator interactions, mesopredator release and biodiversity conservation. (2009, background): “…by: (1) changing habitat use in favour of habitats that offer refuge from apex predators (Palomares et al. 1996; Durant 2000; Heithaus & Dill 2002; Mitchell & Banks 2005; Salo et al. 2008; Sergio & Hiraldo 2008); and (2) altering foraging behaviour and activity (Griffen & Byers 2006; Heithaus &…”
Dietary overlap and prey selectivity among sympatric carnivores: could dingoes suppress foxes through competition for prey? (2011, methodology): “Finally, it is common to compare prey of different predators according to size classes (Glen and Dickman 2008; Mitchell and Banks 2005; Paltridge 2002).”
Evidence that dingoes limit abundance of a mesopredator in eastern Australian forests (2009, methodology): “The indications of a negative interaction between the two species are similar in the data of Catling & Burt (1995) and Newsome (2001), notwithstanding that these authors drew opposite conclusions from their respective studies.”
Predation of wildlife by free-ranging domestic dogs in Polish hunting grounds and potential competition with the grey wolf (2016, background): “, 2004; USDA-APHIS, 2005), Australia (Mitchell and Banks, 2005), and Africa (Butler et al.”
Risk vs. reward: how predators and prey respond to aging olfactory cues (2013, background): “We conducted two separate field experiments; the first examined the foraging behavior and perceived predation risk of bush rats (Rattus fuscipes) in response to fresh and aged odor cues from dogs (Canis lupus familiaris), a known predator of bush rats (Mitchell and Banks 2005).”
Activity patterns of carnivores in the rain forests of Madagascar: implications for species coexistence (2012, unknown): “Competitive or predatory interactions between native and exotic carnivores may lead to extirpations, altered activity patterns, or changes in resource use (Mitchell and Banks 2005).”
