Endemic diseases affect population dynamics of tree squirrels in contrasting landscapes

2018-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Habitat loss and fragmentation can have detrimental effects on wildlife populations and where pervasive can create population isolates that may experience reduced genetic diversity and lower persistence. Diseases that cause epizootics also can reduce wildlife populations and may have disproportionate effects on small populations. We studied survival of radio‐marked western gray squirrels (Sciurus griseus) using kn...
