Use of abandoned structures by Przewalski’s wild horses and other wildlife in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone

Journal Article Schlichting, Peter E. ; Dombrovski, Valery ; Beasley, James C. - Mammal Research

Przewalski’s wild horses (Equus ferus przewalski) are an endangered species and current conservation efforts aim to maintain genetic diversity and reintroduce wild populations. From 1998-2004, 36 Przewalski’s horses were introduced in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ) with no subsequent direct management, and current population size and genetic diversity are unknown. We used remote cameras positioned at the entrance of abandoned structures within the CEZ to elucidate visitation of these structures by Przewalski’s horses and other large mammals to assess the use of this method for monitoring the horse population within the CEZ. We estimated frequency of structure use in wintermore »« less

Evidence of long-distance dispersal of a gray wolf from the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone

Journal Article Byrne, Michael E. ; Webster, Sarah C. ; Lance, Stacey L. ; ... - European Journal of Wildlife Research

The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ) is a ~ 4300 km² area in Belarus and Ukraine that remains heavily contaminated with radiation from the nuclear accident of 1986. Long standing controversy persists on the fate of wildlife within the CEZ following human abandonment of the area. Human residency remains extremely sparse, and the CEZ has become a refuge for some populations of wildlife, including gray wolves (Canis lupus). Here, using GPS telemetry, we documented the first long-distance movements of a young (1-2 years) male wolf from the CEZ into the surrounding landscape. The wolf travelled 369 km from its home rangemore »« less

Genomic data detect corresponding signatures of population size change on an ecological time scale in two salamander species

Journal Article Nunziata, Schyler O. ; Lance, Stacey L. ; Scott, David E. ; ... - Molecular Ecology

Abstract Understanding the demography of species over recent history (e.g. <100 years) is critical in studies of ecology and evolution, but records of population history are rarely available. Surveying genetic variation is a potential alternative to census‐based estimates of population size, and can yield insight into the demography of a population. However, to assess the performance of genetic methods, it is important to compare their estimates of population history to known demography. Here, we leveraged the exceptional resources from a wetland with 37 years of amphibian mark–recapture data to study the utility of genetically based demographic inference on salamander species with documentedmore »« less
