Microsatellite diversity and structure of Carpathian brown bears (Ursus arctos): consequences of human caused fragmentation

2012-02-01

Abstract excerpt

The formerly large, continuous brown bear population of the Carpathians has experienced a radical decrease in population size due to human activities which have resulted in splitting the population into the larger Eastern Carpathian and the smaller Western Carpathian subpopulations. In the Western Carpathians, brown bears came close to extinction at the beginning of 1930s, but thanks to both conservation and manag...
