Human-wildlife conflicts are a global conservation challenge. Reserves and protected areas usually do not adequately provide for the space needs of large carnivores, resulting in overlap between carnivore home ranges and private lands. Private lands often can provide valuable habitats, but...

West-central, Alberta is subject to a growing number of resource extraction activities such as forestry that change ecosystem components and their structure. This area is important for the grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) population, which is considered to be a threatened species in Alberta...

Ciarniello, L. M., Heard, D. C., Boyce, M. S., Seip, D. R.
The purpose of our study is to show how ecologists' interpretation of habitat selection by grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) is altered by the scale of observation and also how management questions would be best addressed using predetermined scales of analysis. Using resource selection functions (RSF)...

This manual attempts to summarize and highlight information to assist in defining species habitat relationships relevant to Alberta environments and for a number of Alberta wildlife species. The degree of specificity of the summaries, in part or whole, varies according to the background...

Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) Predation of Broad Whitefish (Coregonus nasus) in the Mackenzie Delta Region, Northwest Territories
Download2009
On 2 October 2007, we observed evidence of at least one brown bear (Ursus arctos) predating and caching broad whitefish (Coregonus nasus) at Pete’s Creek, a tributary of the Mackenzie River, Northwest Territories. While predation on whitefish by brown bears has been reported as traditional...

Male arctic ground squirrels (Spermophilus parryii) rely on food they cached the previous year for the energy they need to compete for mates each spring. We collected cheek-pouch contents of arctic ground squirrels trapped during three summers (2000–02) as an indication of what squirrels cached....

Individual and Seasonal Variation in Grizzly Bear Selection for a Railway and other Linear Features in Banff National Park, Canada
DownloadFall 2016
Mortality caused by collisions with trains affects numerous species globally and has increased recently to threaten the grizzly bear (Ursus arctos) population protected in Banff and Yoho National Parks, Canada. Although train collisions are the ultimate cause of mortality, the more proximate...

Lambert Koizumi, Catherine M S
Assessing the impact of predators on a prey population is inherently challenging, a fortiori in remote ecosystems. With this thesis, I studied the interactions between a recently declining Dall sheep (Ovis dalli dalli) population and two predators: grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) and wolves (Canis...
