Habitat selection in a recovering bobcat (Lynx rufus) population

Landon R. Jones et al.

Summary: Understanding habitat selection of top predators is crucial for predicting their impacts on ecological communities and interactions with humans. This study analyzed the habitat selection of bobcats in south-central Indiana and found that their preferences align with the early stages of population expansion. Bobcats showed a preference for forest edges, avoidance of agriculture, and selection of habitats with low to intermediate heterogeneity. They also exhibited a peak probability of use near major roads, further from minor roads, and close to developed areas, indicating tradeoffs between hunting quality and mortality risk. The study highlights the importance of refined models for predicting suitable habitat for recovering populations and informing conservation efforts.

Habitat Features Predict Carrying Capacity of a Recovering Marine Carnivore

M. Tim Tinker et al.

Summary: The study developed a model of density-dependent population dynamics for southern sea otters to estimate carrying capacity, showing that the expected density can be predicted based on local habitat variables. The results suggest that factors such as water depth, benthic substrate composition, presence of kelp canopy, and net primary productivity play a role in determining otter density.
