3. 12. Not everything that glitters is gold : does linear infrastructure create an ecological trap for golden eagles?

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

   Author : Michelle Etienne; [2020]
   Keywords : HIREC; animal ecology; animal movement; animal behaviour; integrated step selection function; wildlife traffic accidents; maladaptive behaviour; fitness; habitat selection;

   Abstract : Animals can be caught in an “ecological trap” when they select for seemingly attractive habitats at the expense of their fitness. This maladaptive behaviour is often a consequence of human induced rapid changes in their natal environment, such as the development of linear infrastructure, where roads and railways create novel feeding conditions through traffic induced mortality of other species and powerline areas provide perching or nesting sites.

6. 15. Clearcutting and the breeding productivity of golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) in Västerbotten County

   Keywords : forestry; breeding productivity; breeding success; nestlings; breeding core home range; breeding core area;

   Abstract : The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) is red-listed as near threatened in Sweden, but there are many basic ecological and demographical parameters important for successful management and conservation that are unknown for the Swedish golden eagle population. Forestry, and especially clearcutting (or final cutting/felling or regeneration cutting/felling), the most common harvesting system in Sweden since the 1950’s, are likely important factors affecting the Swedish golden eagle population, but exactly how is largely unknown.
