Making use of harvest information to examine alternative management scenarios: a body weight‐structured model for wild boar

Summary 1. Harvest models are often built to explore the sustainability of the dynamics of exploited populations and to help evaluate hunting management scenarios. Age‐structured models are commonly used for ungulate population dynamics. However, the age of hunted individuals is usually not recorded, and hunting data often only include body weight and sex limiting the usefulness of traditional models. 2. We propose a new modelling approach that...
