Omnivores ... -
Can concentrations of steroid hormones in brown bear hair reveal age class?
Cattet, Marc; Stenhouse, Gordon B.; Boulanger, John; Janz, David M.; Kapronczai, Luciene; Swenson, Jon; Zedrosser, Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Although combining genetic and endocrine data from non-invasively collected hair samples has potential to improve the conservation of threatened mammals, few studies have evaluated this opportunity. In this study, we ... -

Swenson, Jon; Schneider, Michael; Zedrosser, Andreas; Söderberg, Arne; Franzén, Robert; Kindberg, Jonas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Adaptive management’, which has been defined as the repeated iteration between management action, scientific assessment and revised management action, leading to a strengthened foundation for management, is required by ... -
Correcting for enzyme immunoassay changes in long term monitoring studies
Wilson, Abbey E.; Sergiel, Agnieszka; Selva, Nuria; Swenson, Jon; Zedrosser, Andreas; Stenhouse, Gordon; Janz, David M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) are a common tool for measuring steroid hormones in wildlife due to their low cost, commercial availability, and rapid results. Testing technologies improve continuously, sometimes requiring ... -
