In the citing paper
“Observations by Mueller et al. (2018) indicate that coyote/fox interactions are not necessarily antagonistic and harmful to foxes, but their data also show foxes and coyotes partitioning use of urban landscape, with foxes occupying more developed areas, and coyotes avoiding areas heavily used by humans.”
From Microbiomes in Canidae (2021) · cites this paper as Mueller et al., 2018
In the citing paper
“Multiple studies indicate that coyotes (but not red foxes) prefer to avoid heavily human‐impacted areas (Cove et al., 2012; Moll et al., 2018; Mueller et al., 2018; Wait et al., 2018).”

In the citing paper
“multiple studies found that red foxes seek out highly developed areas when coyotes are present (Cove et al., 2012; Moll et al., 2018; Mueller et al., 2018).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
