Caught in the mesh: roads and their network-scale impediment to animal movement
Bischof, Richard; Steyaert, Sam; Kindberg, Jonas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Roads have a pervasive multi-faceted influence on ecosystems, including pronounced impacts on wildlife movements. In recognition of the scale-transcending impacts of transportation infrastructure, ecologists have been ... -

Do ingredient and nutrient intake reveal individual dietary specialization in an omnivorous carnivore, the brown bear?
De Cuyper, Annelies; Strubbe, Diederik; Clauss, Marcus; Lens, Luc; Zedrosser, Andreas; Steyaert, Sam; Kopatz, Alexander; Janssens, Geert P.J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Generalist populations often harbor individual dietary specialists. Whether using a narrower set of resources than the population (= specialization) affects specialists' nutrient intake remains underexplored. We evaluated ... -
Gut microbiome biogeography in reindeer supersedes millennia of ecological and evolutionary separation
Kamenova, Stefaniya; de Muinck, Eric; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Utsi, Tove Hilde Ågnes; Steyaert, Sam; Albon, Steve; Loe, Leif Egil; Trosvik, Pål (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ruminants are dependent on their gut microbiomes for nutrient extraction from plant diets. However, knowledge about the composition, diversity, function, and spatial structure of gut microbiomes, especially in wild ruminants, ...
