Modelling reindeer rut activity using on-animal acoustic recorders and machine learning

Author(s): Boucher AJ; Weladji RB; Holand Ø; Kumpula J;

For decades, researchers have employed sound to study the biology of wildlife, with the aim to better understand their ecology and behaviour. By utilizing on-animal recorders to capture audio from freely moving animals, scientists can decipher the vocalizat ...

Exposure to humans and task difficulty levels affect wild raccoons (Procyon lotor) learning

Author(s): Lazure L; Weladji RB;

Cognition helps wildlife exploit novel resources and environments. Raccoons (Procyon lotor) have successfully adapted to human presence, in part due to their cognitive abilities. However, interactions between humans and wildlife can create conflict. A bette ...

Evidence suggesting that reindeer mothers allonurse according to the direct reciprocity and generalized reciprocity decision rules

Author(s): Engelhardt SC; Weladji RB; Holand Ø; Røed KH; Nieminen M;

Allonursing is the nursing of the offspring of other mothers. Cooperation is an emergent property of evolved decision rules. Cooperation can be explained by at least three evolved decision rules: 1) direct reciprocity, i.e. help someone who previously helpe ...

Mismatch between calf paternity and observed copulations between male and female reindeer: Multiple mating in a polygynous ungulate?

Author(s): Coombs KR; Weladji RB; Holand Ø; Røed KH;

In polygynous systems, such as that exhibited by reindeer Rangifer tarandus, mate choice can be difficult to disentangle from male intrasexual competition because male behavior may constrain female choice. Multiple mating may provide an avenue for female ma ...
