    • Ecological implications from spatial patterns in human-caused brown bear mortality 

      Steyaert, Sam; Zedrosser, Andreas; Elfström, Marcus; Ordiz Fernandez, Andres Avelino; Leclerc, Martin; Frank, Shane C.; Kindberg, Jonas; Støen, Ole-Gunnar; Brunberg, Sven; Swenson, Jon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Humans are important agents of wildlife mortality, and understanding such mortality is paramount for effective population management and conservation. However, the spatial mechanisms behind wildlife mortality are often ...

    • Infanticide as a male reproductive strategy has a nutritive risk effect in brown bears 

      Steyaert, Sam; Reusch, Christine; Brunberg, Sven; Swenson, Jon; Hackländer, Klaus; Zedrosser, Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-10-02)
      Behavioural strategies to reduce predation risk can incur costs, which are often referred to as risk effects. A common strategy to avoid predation is spatio-temporal avoidance of predators, in which prey typically trade ...

    • Proteolysis inhibition by hibernating bear serum leads to increased protein content in human muscle cells 

      Chanon, Stéphanie; Chazarin, Blandine; Toubhans, Benoit; Durand, Christine; Chery, Isabelle; Robert, Maud; Vieille-Marchiset, Aurélie; Swenson, Jon; Zedrosser, Andreas; Evans, Alina; Brunberg, Sven; Arnemo, Jon Martin; Gauquelin-Koch, Guillemette; Storey, Kenneth B.; Simon, Chantal; Blanc, Stéphane; Bertile, Fabrice; Lefai, Etienne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Muscle atrophy is one of the main characteristics of human ageing and physical inactivity, with resulting adverse health outcomes. To date, there are still no efficient therapeutic strategies for its prevention and/or ...

    • Seasonal and annual variation in the diet of brown bears Ursus arctos in the boreal forest of southcentral Sweden 

      Stenset, Nina Emilie; Lutnæs, Paul Antoni Nilsen; Bjarnadóttir, Valgerður; Dahle, Bjørn Steinar; Fossum, Kristin Høivik; Jigsved, Patrick; Johansen, Thomas; Neumann, Wiebke; Opseth, Ole; Rønning, Oddmund; Steyaert, Sam; Zedrosser, Andreas; Brunberg, Sven; Swenson, Jon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Understanding a species' feeding ecology is essential for successful management and conservation, because food abundance can influence body mass, survival, reproductive success, movements, and habitat use. We describe ...
