TL;DR: In this article, the authors collected GPS-location data for 16 individuals (6 females, ages 1-9 y; 10 males, ages 2-8 y) from the summer of 2011-2013 to study space and habitat use by a recently established population of Ursus americanus floridanus (Florida Black Bear) in a fragmented landscape of north-central Florida.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microhabitat features influencing habitat use by Florida black bears
TL;DR: This paper investigated microhabitat features of areas within home ranges that received high vs low intensity of use by Florida black bears (Ursus americanus floridanus ) in north-central, Florida.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of environmental factors and landscape features on movement patterns of Florida black bears
Dana L. Karelus,J. Walter McCown,Brian K. Scheick,Madelon van de Kerk,Benjamin M. Bolker,Madan K. Oli +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the movement patterns of 16 Florida black bears (Ursus americanus floridanus; 6 females, 10 males) in northcentral Florida at multiple temporal scales using GPS data collected from 2011 to 2014.
Journal ArticleDOI
Home ranges and movements of Egyptian Vultures Neophron percnopterus in relation to rubbish dumps in Oman and the Horn of Africa
Michael J. McGrady,Dana L. Karelus,H. A. Rayaleh,M. Sarrouf Willson,B.-U. Meyburg,Madan K. Oli,Keith L. Bildstein +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, non-breeding Egyptian Vultures Neophron percnopterus tracked in Oman and the Horn of Africa ranged over large areas and made regular use of anthropogenic sources of food.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incorporating movement patterns to discern habitat selection: black bears as a case study
Dana L. Karelus,J. Walter McCown,Brian K. Scheick,Madelon van de Kerk,Benjamin M. Bolker,Madan K. Oli +5 more
TL;DR: The methodological framework developed in this study effectively incorporates state-specific movement patterns while making inferences regarding habitat selection in black bear movement patterns will contribute to an improved understanding of animal ecology as well as informed management decisions.
