“…We developed habitat covariates based either on our knowledge or the literature on fish owls (Slaght & Surmach 2008;Slaght 2011). We used a covariate (VALLEY) to assess important landform features within the home range (Takenaka 1998;Slaght 2011).…”

“…In Russia, mortality of Fish-owls likely increases wherever they come into contact with humans. For example, these birds drown when accidentally caught in fishing nets, freeze in winter when trapped in snares set for fur-bearing mammals, and are either wantonly shot or specifically targeted for fear they will ruin the pelts of fur-bearing species (Spangenberg 1965, Dykhan and Kisleiko 1988, Mikhailov and Shibnev 1998, Slaght and Surmach 2008, Andreev 2009). Of 26 recorded mortalities (Pukinskii 1993, Surmach 1998, Yelsukov 2005, Andreev 2009, Slaght and Surmach unpubl.…”

“…In addition to Fish-owl deaths caused by vehicles (three Fish-owls were killed by collisions in our study area from 2010 to 2013, including a female in 2012 that we had banded and monitored since 2007), logging roads themselves have indirect impacts on Fish-owls. First, large, riparian old-growth tree species such as Japanese poplar Populus maximowiczii and chosenia Chosenia arbutifolia , which are favored by Fish-owls as nest trees (Dykhan and Kisleiko 1988, Takenaka 1998, Andreev 2009, Slaght et al 2013a), are sometimes used by logging companies for bridge construction (Slaght and Surmach 2008). A nest tree in our study area near the Maksimovka River was felled for this purpose.…”

“…Blakiston’s fish owl ( Bubo blakistoni Seebohm; hereafter ‘fish owl’), the world’s largest owl, is currently categorized as ‘Endangered’ on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species [ 1 ]. This owl is non-migratory and endemic to northeastern Asia, comprising two subspecies: B. b. blakistoni in central and eastern Hokkaido and the southern Kuril islands; B. b. doerriesi in continental Asia, including the Russian Far East, northeastern China, and probably North Korea (Figure 1 ) [ 2 ]. Unlike many other owl species, the fish owl is specialized to aquatic prey, mainly freshwater fishes, and thus its habitat is limited to areas close to lakes, rivers, springs, and shoals that do not freeze in winter.…”
