| serology of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus in wild rabbits before and after release of the virus in new zealand. | rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (rhdv) was illegally released in new zealand in august 1997. the initial release and spread of the virus was conducted by landholders in an effort to reduce costs associated with more conventional control methods (poisoning and shooting). serum was collected from wild rabbits throughout the otago region prior to the release and from 13 sites in the months following the first epizootic. following the occurrence of the first rhdv epizootic on 13 pastoral farming p ... | 1999 | 10223320 |

| modelling landscape-level numerical responses of predators to prey: the case of cats and rabbits. | predator-prey systems can extend over large geographical areas but empirical modelling of predator-prey dynamics has been largely limited to localised scales. this is due partly to difficulties in estimating predator and prey abundances over large areas. collection of data at suitably large scales has been a major problem in previous studies of european rabbits (oryctolagus cuniculus) and their predators. this applies in western europe, where conserving rabbits and predators such as iberian lynx ... | 2013 | 24039978 |
