Ontario black bear genotypes and locations (2017-2019)
<p>Characterizing patterns and drivers of dispersal is fundamental to our understanding of animal ecology and ultimately informing species conservation and management strategies. In this study, we used microsatellite data from 3,941 individual black bears, <em>Ursus americanus,</em> occupying 73 spatially distinct sampling areas across a large heterogeneous landscape to characterize dispersal via gene flow directionality. We fit spatial models to quantified gene flow to test hypotheses regarding drivers of putative dispersal patterns. Specifically, we tested the relative influence of food productivity gradients, bear density, and bear harvest on dispersal. We also evaluated differences in gene flow patterns within and between sexes to assess sex-biased dispersal. We found evidence suggestive of positive density-dependent, male-biased dispersal. Our data show evidence of a relationship between dispersal and broad food productivity gradients. Specifically, male bears displayed preferential dispersal towards mixed deciduous forests with higher food productivity relative to less productive boreal forests. Given the dense sampling scheme across a continuous population, occupying a large heterogeneous landscape, these results provide key insight as to the likely drivers of dispersal patterns in a wide-ranging mammal.</p>

Data from: The role of human outdoor recreation in shaping patterns of grizzly bear-black bear co-occurrence
Species distributions are influenced by a combination of landscape variables and biotic interactions with other species, including people. Grizzly bears and black bears are sympatric, competing omnivores that also share habitats with human recreationists. By adapting models for multi-species occupancy analysis, we analyzed trail camera data from 192 trail camera locations in and around Jasper National Park, Canada to estimate grizzly bear and black bear occurrence and intensity of trail use. We documented (a) occurrence of grizzly bears and black bears relative to habitat variables (b) occurrence and intensity of use relative to competing bear species and motorised and non-motorised recreational activity, and (c) temporal overlap in activity patterns among the two bear species and recreationists. Grizzly bears were spatially separated from black bears, selecting higher elevations and locations farther from roads. Both species co-occurred with motorised and non-motorised recreation, however, grizzly bears reduced their intensity of use of sites with motorised recreation present. Black bears showed higher temporal activity overlap with recreational activity than grizzly bears, however differences in bear daily activity patterns between sites with and without motorised and non-motorised recreation were not significant. Reduced intensity of use by grizzly bears of sites where motorised recreation was present is a concern given off-road recreation is becoming increasingly popular in North America, and can negatively influence grizzly bear recovery by reducing foraging opportunities near or on trails. Camera traps and multi-species occurrence models offer non-invasive methods for identifying how habitat use by animals changes relative to sympatric species, including humans. These conclusions emphasise the need for integrated land-use planning, access management, and grizzly bear conservation efforts to consider the implications of continued access for motorised recreation in areas occupied by grizzly bears.
