Unintended consequences of invasive predator control in an Australian forest: overabundant wallabies and vegetation change
N Dexter, M Hudson, S James, C MacGregor… - PLoS …, 2013 - journals.plos.org
Over-abundance of native herbivores is a problem in many forests worldwide. The
abundance of native macropod wallabies is extremely high at Booderee National Park …

How do invasive predators and their native prey respond to prescribed fire?
Fire shapes animal communities by altering resource availability and species interactions,
including between predators and prey. In Australia, there is particular concern that two …

To eat, or not to eat: a phantom decoy affects information-gathering behavior by a free-ranging mammalian herbivore
When foraging, making appropriate food choices is crucial to an animal's fitness. Classic
foraging ecology theories assume animals choose food of greatest benefit based on their …

Habitat selection by the swamp wallaby (Wallabia bicolor) in relation to diel period, food and shelter
Patterns of resource selection by animals may be influenced by sex, and often change over
a 24‐h period. We used a dry sclerophyll landscape managed for commercial timber …

The power of odour cues in shaping fine-scale search patterns of foraging mammalian herbivores
Foraging by mammalian herbivores has profound impacts on natural and modified
landscapes, yet we know little about how they find food, limiting our ability to predict and …

Time since fire influences macropod occurrence in a fire‐prone coastal ecosystem
Abstract Knowledge of animal responses to fire is fundamental to wildlife management in fire‐
prone ecosystems. Fire can influence the occurrence of large herbivores by altering the …

Negative frequency‐dependent foraging behaviour in a generalist herbivore (Alces alces) and its stabilizing influence on food web dynamics
Resource selection is widely appreciated to be context‐dependent and shaped by both
biological and abiotic factors. However, few studies have empirically assessed the extent to …

Leaf odour cues enable non‐random foraging by mammalian herbivores
Searching for food is the first critical stage of foraging, and search efficiency is enhanced
when foragers use cues from foods they seek. Yet we know little about food cues used by …
