“…In many predatory birds and mammals, some bones of their prey resist digestion and are regurgitated as pellets and/or scats. These bones can be used, among other things, to estimate prey biomass (Raczyński and Ruprecht 1974;Borowski et al 2008). Several studies have focused on the prediction of body weight based on measurements of the skull in the bank vole (e.g.…”

“…Also, it is possible to estimate the preyed small mammal body mass and age classes from cranial or mandible dimensions (Blem et al, 1993;Zalewski, 1996). The topic was explored several decades ago (Pagels & Blem, 1984;Stewart & Barss, 1985;Dickman et al, 1991), and recently it has come back onto the stage again (Balčiauskienė, 2006(Balčiauskienė, , 2007aBorowski et al, 2008).…”
