A behaviorally-explicit approach for delivering vaccine baits to mesopredators to control epizootics in fragmented landscapes.
Despite the widespread use of aerial baiting to manage epizootics among free-ranging populations, particularly in rabies management, bait acceptance and seroconversion rates often are lower than required to eliminate spread of disease. Our objectives in this study, therefore, were to evaluate the pe...
