Research Interests

Terrestrial vertebrate ecology (mammals)

Dynamics of small populations (including Allee effects)

Predator-prey interactions particularly the effects of changes in relative abundances in multi-prey, multi-predator systems (e.g., apparent competition, introduction of exotics)

Conservation Biology: conservation planning; quantitative targets for population/species recovery; ecosystem versus species-level conservation

Mammalogy: ecology and evolution of ungulates and carnivores
