The diet of the pine marten Martes martes (Linnaeus, 1758) was studied during 16 successive winters in an uninhabited area in northern boreal Finland. The results are based on 5677 scat analyzed. The ...present data support earlier findings that the pine marten is an opportunistic generalist, its most favoured food apparently being small rodents, especially Clethrionomys spp.

Food habitats of European polecat Mustela putorius Linnaeus, 1758 and of American mink Mustela vison Schreber, 1777 are compared by analysis of scats collected from two radiotracked animals in a ...marsh habitat over a 5 month period.

The preliminary results of studies on food niches of predators in the Białowieża National Park, the last remnant of European virgin lowland forests, are presented. The winter diet of seven native ...species (wolf, lynx, red fox, pine marten, polecat, stoat, and tawny owl) and one introduced species (racoon-dog) was determined by scat analysis. Pianka's index α of niche overlap was calculated.
