Abstract:
Providing supplemental feed is a popular management practice for quail (northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus and scaled quail Callipepla squamata ) in Texas. It is common knowledge that non-target species, e.g., raccoons (Procyon lotor), are frequent visitors at feeding stations intended for quail. However, empirical data are scarce on seasonal visitation rates at such feeders, either by quail or by non-target species. The ecological efficacy and economic efficiency of a feeding program for quail depends on several variables; perhaps the most important of these is how much of the feed is cons

Abstract:
Cattle grazing patterns on Lehmann lovegrass rangelands often create heavily-grazed (HG) areas surrounded by lightly-grazed (LG) or ungrazed patches. The purpose of this study was to characterize the forage resource and ingestive behavior of cattle grazing Lehmann lovegrass plants in both LG and HG patches on the Santa Rita Experimental Range. The general hypothesis was that residual bunchgrass vegetation resulted in sward characteristics which physically inhibited the efficiency of cattle grazing by increasing the manipulative activity per harvested bite.

Abstract:
Three levels of resource selection (seasonal movements and habitat use, winter feeding site selection, and forage selection), by two populations of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in west-central British Columbia were examined to evaluate potential effects of logging on those populations. Seasonal movements and habitat use were determined by monitoring radiocollared adult female caribou; winter feeding site and forage selection were determined by following caribou tracks on winter ranges. Caribou moved from winter to summer ranges along relatively snow-free, low elevation migrati
