  1. 1. Sharing space with a larger relative : examining interspecific effects of fallow deer on roe deer performance

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : John-Christophe Hessler Frelinckx; [2023]
    Keywords : roe deer; fallow deer; interspecific competition; population densities;

    Abstract : Interspecific competition of some form is a part of life for most species across the world. For some species it can be part of their evolutionary history over many thousands of years, while for others it is a more recent experience, as is the case of roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and fallow deer (Dama dama), in Scandinavia.

  4. 3. Day or night? Testing thermal imaging technology for estimating ungulate population densities in southern Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Julia Nowak; [2023]
    Keywords : monitoring; ungulates; thermal imaging; population density; distance sampling; Dama dama;

    Abstract : To be able to make a proper judgement and choose the best management or conservation solution when working with populations of wild ungulates or any other wildlife, it is important to obtain good estimates of population densities. Inventing or improving wild animal monitoring methods is a key to protect what may be endangered or to avoid human-wildlife conflicts. READ MORE

  5. 4. Import och förekomst av wapiti (Cervus canadensis) i Sverige

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Abstract : En kombination av jaktlagstiftningen under 1700-talets senare hälft, illegal jakt samt befolkningsökning i Sverige resulterade i en minskad population av stora hjortdjur i Sverige. Vid återetableringen under 1800-talet fram till sent 1900-tal fanns intresse av att introducera främmade hjortdjur för att förbättra viltbeståndet, en åtgärd som under denna tid blev allt vanligare världen över.

    Keywords : dovhjort; rådjur; avskjutning; konkurrens; föda;

    Abstract : Competition in ecosystems can occur in different ways and it is especially important to understand the competition due to well-functioning game management in order to predict what will happen to the competitive situation if something change in the ecosystem. Competition between herbivores can limit certain ecosystem services or lead to a reduction in the biodiversity. READ MORE
