2. The importance of Ecoparks for saproxylic beetles : a study on general ecological hypotheses in differently managed landscapes
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesAbstract : Current forestry practices have led to a decline of deadwood availability in Swedish forests.

4. Mätning av hästars ättider av grovfoder i en aktiv grupphästhållning
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and BiochemistryAbstract : Measurements in horses of feeding times of haylage in an active open barn system In an active open barn, such as Active Stable®, the ratio of roughage to each horse is controlled by a transponder that regulates the horses time for feeding in certain amount of minutes each day. Recommended feeding-times for these kinds of housing systems are generalized which entails that the horse’s ratio will not be individualized. READ MORE

5. Winter feeding site choice of ungulates in relation to food quality
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesAbstract : Supplementary feeding is a widespread practice in Sweden. In most cases, this is done in order to increase ungulate densities for hunting purposes. Forest regimes can also provide a high amount of natural food which influences densities. But high densities are not unproblematic and can cause several problems, e. READ MORE
