Warner, Richard E. Gosselink, Todd Eric 2015-09-25T21:00:21Z 2015-09-25T21:00:21Z 10000-01-01 2002 2002 Survival was influenced the most by environmental and body condition. Adult foxes with low (0--20%) and high (80--100%) row-crop percentages, and higher capture weights experienced higher survival. Juveniles from larger litters, low capture body fat, and fewer dispersal days had higher survival. Adult survival (0.35) was higher than juvenile survival (0.24). Yearly urban survival varied due to cyclic outbreaks of sarcoptic mange, resulting in survival ranging from 0.10 (mange prevalent) to 0.83 (no mange) indifferent years. Mange was the major source of urban fox mortality, followed by road kill. Road kill and coyote predation mortalities were major sources for rural foxes. Urban areas may provide refugia for red foxes in North America where reestablished coyote populations persist at high densities. Made available in DSpace on 2015-09-25T21:00:21Z (GMT).
