Scavenging patterns of an inbred wolf population in a landscape with a pulse of human-provided carrion
Wikenros, Camilla; Di Bernardi, Cecilia; Zimmermann, Barbara; Åkesson, Mikael; Demski, Maike; Flagstad, Øystein; Mattisson, Jenny; Tallian, Aimee Grace; Wabakken, Petter; Sand, Håkan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Scavenging is an important part of food acquisition for many carnivore species that switch between scavenging and predation. In landscapes with anthropogenic impact, humans provide food that scavenging species can utilize. ... -
Whole-genome resequencing of temporally stratified samples reveals substantial loss of haplotype diversity in the highly inbred Scandinavian wolf population
Viluma, Agnese; Flagstad, Øystein; Åkesson, Mikael; Wikenros, Camilla; Sand, Håkan; Wabakken, Petter; Ellegren, Hans (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Genetic drift can dramatically change allele frequencies in small populations and lead to reduced levels of genetic diversity, including loss of segregating variants. However, there is a shortage of quantitative studies ...
