Thesis (M.S.)--Mississippi State University, 2004.

Any depredation of individuals of rare, isolated, dispersed, and endangered species, such as the red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW), has much greater impact on such populations than on more abundant, stable, and non-threatened species. Predation is a complex process that can only be understood in context of the ecology of both prey and predator species. Given that rat snakes are a common predator of RCWs, an understanding of the relationships between these predator and prey are essential for RCW recovery. I assessed temporal climbing patterns and selection of trees climbed by gray rat snakes within RCW clusters. Also, I evaluated spatial and temporal patterns of habitat use by, and estimated survival of, radio-marked gray rat snakes within and adjacent to RCW clusters.

Predation is a complex process that can only be understood in context of the ecology of both prey and predator species.

520 $a Rat snakes only climbed trees with cavities. RCW nest trees were only climbed during nestling. Although rat snakes showed habitat preferences for pine habitat at Johnson's second- and third-order selection, rat snakes predominantly used hardwood trees for micro-habitat refugia during the active season. Rat snakes were active rarely during nocturnal hours. Rat snake survival was high during the annual cycle and active seasons. Male rat snake mortality was less than that of females. Management efforts to reduce gray rat snake depredation of RCW should be temporally specific within the nestling interval and should target hardwood elements and successional growth within clusters and non-lethal RCW nest tree protection.
