Declining Arctic sea ice is increasing polar bear land use. Polar bears on land are thought to minimize activity to conserve energy. Here, we measure the daily energy expenditure (DEE) …
Around the world, climate change has impacted many species. In this study, we used bioclimatic variables and biophysical layers of Central Asia and the Asian Highlands …
Climate-mediated phenological shifts can cause species to lose access to their primary prey while increasing opportunities for alternative-prey encounters. Species that are able to …
Climate change is expected to increase the frequency and duration of long-distance swims by polar bears (Ursus maritimus). The energetic costs of such swims are assumed to be …

Simple Summary Human-caused climate change is proceeding rapidly and providing challenges to wildlife species, especially those adapted to colder temperatures. We …
Dinosaur foraging ecology has been the subject of scientific interest for decades, yet much of what we understand about it remains hypothetical. We wrote an agent-based model …
During much of the year, polar bears in western Hudson Bay use energy-conserving hunting tactics, such as still-hunting and stalking, to capture seals from sea-ice platforms. Such …
Relatively little is known about the feeding ecology of grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) in Wapusk National Park. Other ursids, polar bears (Ursus maritimus), are well known predators of …
