As animals age and grow, their habitat selection changes as they are better able to find food, traverse landscapes and assess the risk of predators. Understanding these changes could be especially important in declining populations of eastern wild turkeys in the Southeast. In the November issue of the Journal of Wildlife Management, researchers studied how habitat selection shifted as broods aged. The findings could help managers provide better brood habitat for the birds at various ages.

Other articles look at ungulate kill rates by Mexican wolves, bottlenose dolphin patterns off the coast of Georgia, the use of swimming pools by South African bats, and more. Log in to read the November issue today.
