Waterbird zoogeochemical effects shape wetland nutrient dynamics and algal communities in Laurentian Great Lakes coastal freshwater wetlands

Taylor C. Michael, Paisley Kostick, Matthew A. Wuensch, David M. Costello

Freshwater wetlands along the Laurentian Great Lakes provide vital ecosystem services, two of which include providing habitat for millions of waterfowl and reducing nutrient (nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P)) runoff from the landscape. Nutrient bioavailability in wetlands is influenced by waterbirds, which …

Deconstructing white-tailed deer forage selection: the role of plant chemistry and volatile scent signaling

Matthew A. Wuensch, Andrew C. Eagar, Mahinda E. Gangoda, David C. Ward

The final product of this work is now published at Oecologia. Please read and reference these works there: https://doi.org/10.1007/s00442-025-05820-2 When foraging optimally, mammalian herbivores should select food items that confer the greatest nutritional benefits (such as crude protein and non-structural carbohydrates) and …

White‐tailed deer preferentially use areas with greater anthropogenic development in a suburban metropark system

Matthew A. Wuensch, Remington J. Moll, Jonathon D. Cepek, Nathan W. Byer et autres

Abstract Urban expansion and anthropogenic development result in wildlife‐habitat loss and fragmentation, increased human–wildlife conflicts, and biodiversity loss across the globe. However, some animal species are well adapted to anthropogenic land use and find novel foraging opportunities or refuge from predation in …

Predator activity and scent cues influence white-tailed deer behavior in a multi-predator landscape

Matthew A. Wuensch, Tony W. Mong, Brandon M. Scurlock, Nathan W. Byer et autres

Abstract When navigating landscapes, prey make decisions that balance their need to acquire high-quality resources with the risk of predation. When risk is heterogeneous across the landscape, prey can alter their habitat use to avoid high-risk patches, or they can employ behavioral …

Behavioural Trade‐Offs in Impala: The Influence of Predators and Social Structure on Foraging and Vigilance

Ellie N. Freidly, Matthew A. Wuensch, Taylor C. Michael, David Ward

ABSTRACT Group‐dwelling mammalian herbivores (e.g., impala) often have to balance between the amount of time spent foraging and being vigilant. Vigilance behaviour (scanning for predators) helps reduce predation risk while prey are vulnerable during foraging events. Impalas typically occur in either territorial …

Anthropogenic linear features exhibit greater mammal activity relative to surrounding game trails in a woody savannah

Ryan S. Fitzpatrick, Miranda C. Kissel, Matthew A. Wuensch, Taylor C. Michael et autres

Abstract Anthropogenic development throughout African savannahs results in changes to landscapes and wildlife habitat. Linear features (e.g. roads and powerlines) have become more prevalent and can reshape how many mammal species navigate the landscape. This study assesses how mammals use anthropogenic linear …
