1. 6. Economic Studies on Wildlife Management and Conservation

   Författare :Julian Eduardo Lozano Galindez; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The present research consists of four articles addressing wildlife management and conservation using different methodological approaches of applied economics. The thesis encompasses various economic analyses on three carnivore species mainly: the wolf (Canis lupus), the brown bear (Ursus arctos), and the lynx (Lynx lynx). LÄS MER

3. 7. Conservation Genetics of Scandinavian Wolverines

   Författare :Eva Hedmark; Hans Ellegren; Lisette Waits; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular genetics; carnivores; conservation; genetic monitoring; molecular sexing; non-invasive genetic techniques; parentage analysis; tanning; Genetik; Gulo gulo; Genetics; Genetik;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, genetic methods for individual identification and sex determination of wolverines from non-invasive samples were developed and applied in genetic monitoring of Scandinavian wolverine populations. Paternity and mating system of wolverines were studied by combining genetic analysis with telemetry data. LÄS MER

4. 8. Life and death in wolverines : linking demography and habitat for conservation

   Författare :Geir Rune Rauset; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Developing trustworthy conservation planning for endangered species requires a deep understanding of the variations of their populations in both space and time. I used individual-based long-term location and demographic data on wolverines (Gulo gulo) in Northern Sweden, and data on reproductions from the national monitoring systems of Norway and Sweden, to analyze how wolverine demography in Scandinavia is affected by variation in habitat and management policies.

5. 9. Interactions between Eurasian lynx and wolverines in the reindeer husbandry area

   Författare :Jenny Mattisson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : In conservation and management, carnivore species are often treated as isolated units, even though interspecific interactions can have important implications for the behaviour, demography and distribution of the species involved. In this thesis I used individual based GPS-location data to study interactions between two solitary predators in the reindeer husbandry area in Northern Scandinavia: The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx), an obligate predator, and the wolverine (Gulo gulo), an opportunistic predator and scavenger.

7. 10. Tracking Wild Boar and Hunters : Osteology of Wild Boar in Mesolithic South Scandinavia

   Författare :Ola Magnell; Historisk osteologi; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Humanities; Mesolithic; body size; age estimation; taphonomy; hunting; osteology; Humaniora; wild boar;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the hunting of wild boar during the Mesolithic in South Scandinavia and the relationship between humans and wild game. The study is based on an analysis of osteological remains from sites in Scania, Sweden, dating from the Late Maglemose Culture to the Early Ertebølle Culture. LÄS MER
