Few studies have evaluated non-migratory Roosevelt elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti)
interactions and habitat use on lands undergoing extensive timber removal. We captured and
radio-tracked for 14 months representatives from 29 different bands of elk across a 37,000 ha area
of Oregon's Coast Range. We identified 6 habitat variables within individual...
No studies have evaluated the effects of limited vehicle access on movements, survival and habitat use of Roosevelt
elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti) . We installed twenty gates, restricting motorized vehicle access by the public in
seven discrete Road Management Areas (RMAs), comprising 35% of the study area. We radio-tracked 31...
Forage availability, diets, distribution, and productivity were
compared for Roosevelt elk, Cervus elaphus roosevelti, using improved
(i.e. seeded, fertilized, and grazed) and untreated areas of the Oregon
Coast Range. Seasonal forage availability was substantially different
on 1-year-old improved and untreated clearcuts, but the differences
diminished by clearcut age 4 and...
