In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Movement and Space Use Patterns of the Beale's Eyed Turtle (Sacalia bealei) Suggest Sensitivity to Environmental Changes and Poaching 比氏眼斑龟 (Sacalia bealei) 的活动与空间利用模式揭示其对环境变化及盗猎的敏感性

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Using radiotelemetry, we found that the movement and home range of the endangered Sacalia bealei varied significantly across reproductive classes and seasons, with males exhibiting greater movement than females during wet and mating seasons. The species exhibits strong aquatic dependence, favoring deep pools interspaced among riffle‐pool sequences ...

When and why to give shorebirds a head start

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

World Association for Veterinary Dermatology Consensus Statement for Diagnosis, and Evidence‐Based Clinical Practice Guidelines for Treatment and Prevention of Canine Leishmaniosis

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 6, Page 723-787, December 2025.
Hyperkeratosis of (a) the footpads and (b) the nasal planum. ABSTRACT Background Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) due to Leishmania infantum remains common, and veterinarians do not always follow scientifically sound approaches for diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Objectives To provide consensus guidelines for diagnosis and evidence‐based guidelines for

Facilitating Large‐Scale Bird Biodiversity Data Collection in Citizen Science: ‘Relaxed’ Point Counts for Anytime, Anywhere Monitoring

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This paper proposes a ‘relaxed’ point‐count survey method to enhance accessibility and expand geographic coverage by easing these constraints. Surveys can be conducted in diverse locations, including urban areas and travel routes, within flexible timeframes (e.g., 6 h after sunrise or during the evening) and with adaptable spacing between survey points,

Assessment of the Threat Status of Bent‐Toed Geckos (Cyrtodactylus) in Indochina: Implementation of the One Plan Approach

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 464-475, September 2025.
This study investigates the diversity, conservation status, distribution, and discovery rate of 84 Cyrtodactylus species in Indochina. Despite rising discovery rates, many species are unassessed, with over half unprotected and 90.5% endemic. This study suggests expanding protected areas and implementing an integrated approach to conservation with IUCN ...
