Arctic rabies is an ongoing threat to human populations and domestic animals inpolar
regions, where Arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus) are the main reservoir hosts. Human-driven
changes in resource availability are shifting the distribution of Arctic foxes and these
changes may affect the risk of rabies transmission and spread. Our understanding of the
effects of broad-scale movement strategies in Arctic foxes and spatial distribution of
resources on contact patterns among Arctic foxes, and their consequences on the dynamics …
