A key step in generating effective recovery strategies for species at risk is to identify habitat
used under a variety of geographic settings. In part attributable to habitat loss and …

Context Turtles are one of the most imperilled taxonomic groups worldwide and information
about population ecology is essential to species recovery. Although the spatial ecology and …

Winter in temperate regions is characteristically the coldest period of the year. Species in
these regions adapt to freezing temperatures with physiological or behavioural mechanisms …

Radiotelemetry provides a tool for monitoring animals that are difficult to observe directly.
Recent technical advances have given rise to new systems that present expanded …

Matrix models and perturbation analyses provide a useful framework for evaluating
demographic vital rates crucial to maintaining population growth. Determining which vital …

Urbanization is commonly associated with biodiversity loss and habitat fragmentation.
However, urban environments often have greenspaces that can support wildlife populations …

Habitat selection is the disproportionate use of habitat compared with availability. Many
studies have focused on specialists, but few have considered habitat selection in …

Wind energy presents many advantages, but wind farms pose risks to wildlife and habitats.
We hypothesized that habitat changes caused by the impacts of wind farm construction and …

Aim Estuaries world‐wide have been modified or fragmented due to human stressors in their
terrestrial and aquatic components. Estuary fragmentation often results in reductions in …

Global positioning system (GPS) telemetry units are now small enough to be deployed on
terrestrial and semi-aquatic turtles. Many of these GPS units use snapshot technology which …
