Infanticide as a male reproductive strategy has a nutritive risk effect in brown bears
(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 ... -
Infestation of mice and voles with Ixodes ricinus ticks in Lithuania and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)A total of 693 small rodents were live-trapped in Lithuania and Norway. In Lithuania, the mice Apodemus flavicollis and A. agrarius were more frequently infested with ticks than the voles Microtus arvalis and Myodes ... -
Infestation with Ixodes ricinus ticks on migrating passerine birds in Lithuania and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)Ticks are known to carry several pathogenic agents of human diseases. To define the role of migrating birds as host and disseminators of ticks in Lithuania and Norway we analysed immature stage of ticks feeding on different ... -

Inkoo and Sindbis viruses in blood sucking insects, and a serological study for Inkoo virus in semi-domesticated Eurasian tundra reindeer in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Mosquito-borne viruses pose a serious threat to humans worldwide. There has been an upsurge in the number of mosquito-borne viruses in Europe, mostly belonging to the families Togaviridae, genus Alphavirus ... -
Insights in the regulation of trimetylamine N-oxide production using a comparative biomimetic approach suggest a metabolic switch in hibernating bears
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Experimental studies suggest involvement of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) in the aetiology of cardiometabolic diseases and chronic kidney disease (CKD), in part via metabolism of ingested food. Using a comparative biomimetic ... -
The interplay between hunting rate, hunting selectivity, and reproductive strategies shapes population dynamics of a large carnivore
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Harvest, through its intensity and regulation, often results in selection on female reproductive traits. Changes in female traits can have demographic consequences, as they are fundamental in shaping population dynamics. ... -
Invasive North American beaver Castor canadensis in Eurasia: a review of potential consequences and a strategy for eradication
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-12)Seven North American beavers Castor canadensis (Cc) were introduced into Finland in 1937 to supplement an ongoing reintroduction of the nearly extinct Eurasian beaver C. fiber (Cf). At that time, many zoologists recognised ... -

Investigations of waterborne pathogens in Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) from Telemark county, Southeast Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2001)The presence of pathogenic bacteria and parasites in drinking water is a well-known cause of human disease outbreaks. There is however, a lack of knowledge of the contamination routes to water. In Norway, the supply of ... -
Island biogeography theory explains the genetic diversity of a fragmented rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) population
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The island biogeography theory is one of the major theories in ecology, and its applicability to natural systems is well documented. The core model of the theory, the equilibrium model of island biogeography, predicts that ... -
Ixodes ricinus and Borrelia prevalence at the Arctic Circle in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)The distribution limit of Ixodes ricinus ticks in northwestern Europe (Brønnøy, Norway, 1° south of the Arctic Circle), has been known since the 1930s. To reconfirm this finding and extend studies in the areas adjacent to ... -

Koppermangel hos oppdrettshjort
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2001)Raising red deer in enclosures for meat production is a relatively new practice in Norway and is based on national stocks (Cervus elaphus atlanticus). Presently only 400 - 500 hinds are reared in enclosures by 25 ... -
Landscape genetics of northern crested newt Triturus cristatus populations in a contrasting natural and human-impacted boreal forest
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Among vertebrates, amphibians currently have the highest proportion of threatened species worldwide, mainly through loss of habitat, leading to increased population isolation. Smaller amphibian populations may lose more ... -
Landscape of fear or landscape of food? Moose hunting triggers an antipredator response in brown bears
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Hunters can affect the behavior of wildlife by inducing a landscape of fear, selecting individuals with specific traits, or altering resource availability across the landscape. Most research investigating the influence of ... -
Landscape use and economic value of Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) on large forest in southeast Norway
(Conference report, 1999)Though numerous studies of damage caused by beaver (Castor canadensis and C. fiber) to commercially managed forests have been conducted, few have incorporated the economic advantages beaver can create for forest owners. ...
