| multimethod, multistate bayesian hierarchical modeling approach for use in regional monitoring of wolves. | in many cases, the first step in large-carnivore management is to obtain objective, reliable, and cost-effective estimates of population parameters through procedures that are reproducible over time. however, monitoring predators over large areas is difficult, and the data have a high level of uncertainty. we devised a practical multimethod and multistate modeling approach based on bayesian hierarchical-site-occupancy models that combined multiple survey methods to estimate different population ... | 2016 | 26864259 |
| noninvasive heavy metal pollution assessment by means of iberian wolf (canis lupus signatus) hair from galicia (nw spain): a comparison with invasive samples. | the current study represents the first investigation of the suitability of wolf hair as indicator tissue for metal exposure and accumulation within nw spanish ecosystems. dead animals, which were not specifically killed for these purposes, were necropsied, and further toxicological analyses were performed in order to establish the heavy metal content (pb, cd, and zn) in liver, kidney, and hair, by means of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. two different factors, gender an ... | 2013 | 23877576 |
| pcbs and pcts in wolves (canis lupus, l) in galicia (n.w. spain). | levels of pcbs and pcts (the aroclor1260 and aroclor5460 congeners, respectively) in viscera of wolves of galicia (n.w. spain) were determined by capillary gc with electron-capture detection. mean pcb levels ranged from 0.13 mg/kg of dry tissue in kidney to 3.70 mg/kg in liver. pcts were detected only in suprarenal capsule, their mean level being 3.77 mg/kg. | 1997 | 9308159 |
| lung and hearth nematodes in some spanish mammals. | thirteen host species belonging to the orders rodentia, insectivora and carnivora from various localities in galicia (nw spain) were examined for heart and lung parasites. the following species were found: parastrongylus dujardini (5.5%) in apodemus sylvaticus, crenosoma striatum in erinaceus europaeus (83%), angiostrongylus vasorum, crenosoma vulpis and eucoleus aerophilus in vulpes vulpes (3, 3.46 and 0.50%, respectively), crenosoma taiga in putorius putorius (100%) and crenosoma sp. in meles ... | 1991 | 1844789 |
