This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Snowshoe hare (waabooz; Lepus americanus) are a culturally significant animal and an important source of food and fur for the Leech Lake Bank of Ojibwe. Showshoe hare populations within the Leech Lake Reservation have declined, primarily due to changes in forest structure resulting in reduced dense vegetative cover used to escape predators. Primary mammalian predators are American martens (waabizheshiwag; Martes americana), fishers (ojiigag; Pekania pennanti), and bobcats (gidigaa-bizhiwag; Lynx rufus), Snowshoe hares, martens, and fishers are currently listed as species of management concern on the LLBO's Threatened, Endangered, Sensitive and Management Concern Species list. Research using culturally appropriate techniques is crucial to the future management and conservation of wildlife on tribal lands. We used 2 non-invasive monitoring techniques to assess species-habitat relationships for snowshoe hares and their mammalian predators. Sampling methods examined both spatial occupancy (snow-tracking surveys) and temporal activity patterns (remote camera traps) during the winters of 2020-2021 and 2021-2022. Both sampling methods and subsequent analysis incorporated northern white cedar (giizhik; Thuja occidentalis) stands, one of the few remaining cover types within the reservation to provide dense vegetative refugia for snowshoe hares. Occupancy analysis revealed unique habitat relationships for each species; however, snowshoe hare, marten and fisher occupancy were all negatively related to the presence of roads and positively related to vegetative cover such as cedar stands, conifer cover or canopy cover. Snowshoe hare occupancy was positively correlated with predator species diversity, and fisher occupancy was negatively correlated with the presence of bobcats. Results from this research will further inform the use of forest management practices as a tool to support culturally significant species."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus) survival depends on the interaction of habitat characteristics with numerous biological and environmental variables. In boreal regions where considerable habitat heterogeneity exists, hares balance food availability with predation risk by moving among habitats seasonally, but it is largely unknown how often they move at shorter time scales. I investigated the seasonal effects of habitat, weather, and individual hare characteristics on survival and movement in two common but fundamentally different boreal habitats. Survival was highest in summer, for hares with higher body condition, and in black spruce rather than early successional forest. Hares moved among core use areas in different habitats twice per day on average, using more open areas at night when they were presumably feeding on preferred browse. Movement rates were lowest in mid-afternoon when hares appeared to be resting under dense cover. Behavior of individuals varied greatly with some hares repeatedly moving up to 1 km between defined patches in less than 5 hours and others remaining roughly within a 1 ha area. These findings illustrate the complexity of snowshoe hare ecology in an area where habitat variation promotes daily movement of hares among radically different habitats over a few hundred meters.
