Beyond genotype

Reliable population estimates are an important aspect of sustainable wildlife management but usually difficult to obtain for rare and elusive large carnivores. I tested a new method developed by Creel and Rosenblatt (2013) to estimate the population size of two Swedish brown bear (Ursus arctos) popu...
