TL;DR: It is shown that roughly one-third of mainland Europe hosts at least one large carnivore species, with stable or increasing abundance in most cases in 21st-century records, and coexistence alongside humans has become possible, argue the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genomic signature of dog domestication reveals adaptation to a starch-rich diet
Erik Axelsson,Abhirami Ratnakumar,Maja Louise Arendt,Khurram Maqbool,Matthew T. Webster,Michele Perloski,Olof Liberg,Jon M. Arnemo,Jon M. Arnemo,Åke Hedhammar,Kerstin Lindblad-Toh,Kerstin Lindblad-Toh +11 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that novel adaptations allowing the early ancestors of modern dogs to thrive on a diet rich in starch, relative to the carnivorous diet of wolves, constituted a crucial step in the early domestication of dogs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The recovery, distribution, and population dynamics of wolves on the Scandinavian peninsula, 1978-1998
TL;DR: Simulation of population growth based on known reproductions and mortalities showed a close similarity to the results from population censuses up to the mid-1990s.
Predation as a regulating factor on small rodent populations in
Sam Erlinge,Görgen Göransson,Lennart Hansson,Göran Högstedt,Olof Liberg,Ingvar N. Nilsson,Magnus Sylven +6 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that predation is the primary cause of non-cyclicity in the examined rodent populations is supported and important prerequisites for the important role of predation seem to be: a rich supply of alternative prey sustaining a high and constant predator density, availability of small rodents for most of the year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predation as a Regulating Factor on Small Rodent Populations in Southern Sweden
Sam Erlinge,Görgen Göransson,Lennart Hansson,Göran Högstedt,Olof Liberg,Ingvar N. Nilsson,Tom Nilsson,Torbjörn von Schantz,Magnus Sylven +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Predation rate on non-cyclic Microtus agrestis and Apodemus sylvaticus populations was calculated from data on numbers, food spectra, and food demands of the mammalian and avian predators present.
