SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Cities now constitute one of the most rapidly growing ecosystems in the world, and with the global spotlight on increasing urbanization and development, the focus on wildlife in 'natural' systems is sharing importance with a focus on wildlife in urban systems, providing unique research opportunities in ecology and conservation. Over four years from April 2014 through June 2018, we investigated the effects of urban development and natural food production on American black bear (Ursus americanus) ecology centered on the city of Asheville, North Carolina. Black bears are model animals for study because they are behaviorally flexible omnivores highly adapted to locate and secure high calorie foods and, thus, may benefit from a variety of urban resources.
