- Geography
- 1 December 2002
We examined the behavior of bobcats and coyotes in a fragmented urban area northwest of Los Angeles, California, from July 1998 to October 1999. Activity patterns of bobcats and coyotes were… Expand
Population Dynamics of Bison in the Henry Mountains, Utah
- D. V. Vuren, D. V. Vuren, Martin P. Bray, Martin P. Bray
- Biology
- 8 August 1986
We assessed structure, survival, productivity, and growth of a Bison bison population in southern Utah during 7 years. Consistently female-biased sex ratios resulted from male-biased hunting… Expand
Duration of snow cover and its influence on life-history variation in yellow-bellied marmots
- D. V. Vuren, K. Armitage
- Biology
- 1 July 1991
We evaluated the relationship between growing-season phenology, as indicated by time of snow melt, and intrapopulation variation in reproduction and growth of yellow-bellied marmots. The time of snow… Expand
A 32-year demography of yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris)
- O. A. Schwartz, K. Armitage, D. V. Vuren
- Biology
- 1 November 1998
Yellow-bellied marmots Marmota flaviventris in the East River Valley of Colorado were live-trapped and individually marked annually from 1962 through 1993. These pooled data were used to produce a… Expand
Spatial relations of American bison Bison bison and domestic cattle in a montane environment

Translocation as a Nonlethal Alternative for Managing California Ground Squirrels
- D. V. Vuren, A. Kuenzi, Ivette Loredo, A. L. Leider, M. L. Morrison
- Biology
- 1 April 1997
To evaluate the efficacy of translocation as a nonlethal management alternative, we determined trapability, post-release survival, site fidelity, and homing ability of experimentally translocated… Expand
Survival of dispersing and philopatric yellow-bellied marmots: what is the cost of dispersal?
- D. V. Vuren, K. Armitage
- Biology
- 1 March 1994
Understanding the evolution of dispersal has been hindered by a lack of reliable measures of the cost of dispersal. We report that survival of dispersing yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris)… Expand
IMMOBILIZATION AND PHYSIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS ASSOCIATED WITH CHEMICAL RESTRAINT OF WILD PIGS WITH TELAZOL® AND XYLAZINE HYDROCHLORIDE

Diets of bison (Bison bison) mnd cattle (Bos taurus) were evaluated on a southern Utah range seeded to crested wheatgrass (Agropyron desertorum) and alfalfa (Medicago sativa). Bison feces comprised… Expand
Insular Endemic Plants Lack Defenses Against Herbivores
- L. Bowen, D. V. Vuren
- Biology
- 16 October 1997
Islands are of special conservation importance because island ecosystems typically support unique biotic communities rich in endemic taxa (Mueller-Dombois 1981). Species endemic to islands, however,… Expand
