Food and cover resources for small mammals on an industrially logged landscape in the Sierra Nevada of California

Fraik, A. K., Facka, A. N., & Powell, R. A. (2023, February 8). Canadian Journal of Zoology.

By: A. Fraik  n, A. Facka n & R. Powell n

author keywords: cover; food; forest management; functional value; Neotoma fuscipes; Peromyscus maniculatus
topics (OpenAlex): Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Animal Ecology and Behavior Studies; Ecology and Vegetation Dynamics Studies
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that shrubs and non coniferous trees are particularly important for small mammals and should be of particular focus to forest managers in the Sierras and mountains with similar forest structures. (via Semantic Scholar)

2021 article

Intraspecific Competition, Habitat Quality, Niche Partitioning, and Causes of Intrasexual Territoriality for a Reintroduced Carnivoran

Facka, A. N., & Powell, R. A. (2021, November 1). Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution.

By: A. Facka n & R. Powell n

author keywords: carnivore; competition; habitat; home range; intrasexual territory; movements; niche partitioning; territory
topics (OpenAlex): Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Marine animal studies overview; Bat Biology and Ecology Studies
TL;DR: Female fishers avoid conspecific competition from all fishers, but males tolerate, or impose, competition with females, apparently to increase mating opportunities, consistent with the movements and strategies of other solitary carnivores. (via Semantic Scholar)

2020 article

Using reintroduction to elucidate breeding system, breeding phenology, and infanticide for a solitary carnivore (fisher, Pekania pennanti)

Smith, K. P., Facka, A. N., & Powell, R. A. (2020, March 13). Canadian Journal of Zoology.

By: K. Smith  n, A. Facka n & R. Powell n

author keywords: breeding strategy; carnivore; fisher; male infanticide; Pekania pennanti; polygamy; polygynandry; reintroduction
topics (OpenAlex): Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Bat Biology and Ecology Studies; Animal Ecology and Behavior Studies
TL;DR: This work uses logistic and linear regression to evaluate the timing and frequency of male visitation at 262 reproductive dens used by 50 individual females and provides the first descriptions of male–female interactions for wild fishers. (via Semantic Scholar)

2016 article

Timing of translocation influences birth rate and population dynamics in a forest carnivore

Facka, A. N., Lewis, J. C., Happe, P., Jenkins, K., Callas, R., & Powell, R. A. (2016, January 1). Ecosphere.

By: A. Facka n, J. Lewis*, P. Happe *, K. Jenkins *, R. Callas* & R. Powell n

author keywords: California; carnivore; delayed implantation; fisher; life history; Olympic Peninsula; Pekania pennanti; population extinction; reintroduction; reproduction; timing; translocation; Washington
topics (OpenAlex): Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Ecology and biodiversity studies; Rangeland and Wildlife Management
TL;DR: The results from both empirical data and simulations show that the timing of translocation should be considered during planning of translocations and implemented before the capture, movement, and release of organisms for translocation. (via Semantic Scholar)
