Dispersal in a plain landscape: short-distance genetic differentiation in southwestern Manitoba wolves, Canada

2012-04-01

Abstract excerpt

The effects of human-caused fragmentation require further study in landscapes where physical dispersal barriers and natural ecological transitions can be discounted as causes for population genetic structure. We predict that fragmentation can reduce dispersal across such barrier-free landscapes because dispersal also is limited by a perception of risk. Considerable fragmentation has occurred in the Riding Mountain...
