Hunting for fear: innovating management of human–wildlife conflicts (2013, background): “Predators do not randomly select individuals from a population, but generally prefer certain age or sex classes, specifically juveniles and old individuals (Husseman et al. 2003).”
Habitat heterogeneity and mammalian predator–prey interactions (2012, background): “On the contrary, an ambush predator’s success depends more on the cover present where prey is detected, as this affects the distance at which the chase can start (Husseman et al. 2003, see below).”
Size-selectivity of predatory reef fish on juvenile prey (2010, background): “Such characteristics include body size (Allen 2008, Sakamoto & Hanazato 2008), overall condition (Husseman et al. 2003, Penteriani et al. 2008), growth rate (Takasuka et al. 2003, Urban 2007), sensory development (Poling & Fuiman 1997) and escape speed (Brana 2003).”
Microhabitat selection by Eurasian lynx and its implications for species conservation (2008, background): “In contrast, pumas Puma concolor were reported to hunt preferably in areas with dense undergrowth and poor visibility ( Husseman et al. 2003 ).”
Linking wolves to willows via risk-sensitive foraging by ungulates in the northern Yellowstone ecosystem (2006, background): “In Idaho, Husseman et al. (2003) found wolf kills were more likely to occur in valley bottoms and riparian areas when compared to uplands.”
Know Thy Enemy: Experience Affects Elk Translocation Success in Risky Landscapes (2007, background): “Such trade-offs in primary mortality hazards also might occur where multiple predators coexist with respect to other landscape features (e.g., terrain conditions; Husseman et al. 2003, Arjo and Pletscher 2004).”
Ungulate flight responses to human disturbance: a review and meta-analysis. (2008, background): “While it is known that ungulates in poor condition are targets of predators (Mech, 1970; Huggard, 1993; Gese and Grothe, 1995; Mech et al., 1995; Gese, 1999; Husseman et al., 2003), they may also suffer disproportionately from human disturbance, but this has never been quantified formally.”
Interactions between cougars (Puma concolor) and gray wolves (Canis lupus) in Banff National Park, Alberta (2007, background): “Whereas previous studies also have shown high diet overlap between wolves and cougars (Kunkel et al., 1999; Husseman et al., 2003), ours is the first to report dramatic and sequential prey shifts in both predator species.”
Evaluating Global Positioning System Telemetry Techniques for Estimating Cougar Predation Parameters (2009, background): “…systems (Robinson et al. 2002, Knopff and Boyce 2007), the age–sex structure of prey (Mills and Shenk 1992), the physical condition of prey (Husseman et al. 2003), and the spatial distribution of predation risk (Hebblewhite et al. 2005, Kauffman et al. 2007, Creel 2008) are fundamental to…”
Feeding behaviour and bone utilization by theropod dinosaurs (2009, background): “Modern and recent mammalian predators (Krüger et al. 1999; Husseman et al. 2003; Steele 2004) and birds (Donazar & Ceballos 1989; Boshoff et al. 1994; Rohner & Krebs 1996) certainly prefer these kinds of sub-optimal fitness prey.”
