Low Nest Success of Black‐Legged Kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) at a Mainland Colony Is Not Associated With Disturbance From Walkers or Boats: Implications for Compensation for Offshore Renewables Impacts

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Offshore wind energy is rapidly expanding in the North sea foraging grounds of internationally important seabirds, with predicted impacts on their survival and productivity. Since reduction to breeding colony disturbance is a proposed compensation measure for these impacts, we used a seven‐year dataset of > 1400 black‐legged kittiwake nests at an ...

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...

Gastrointestinal and external parasites of the Variable hawk Geranoaetus polyosoma (Accipitriformes: Accipitridae) in Chile [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2019
Abstract Information about parasites associated with diurnal raptors from Chile is scarce. Between 2006 and 2017, a total of 15 specimens of the Variable hawk, Geranoaetus polyosoma (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824) were collected, 14 of them from different localities in the Biobío region and one specimen from the Valparaíso region. An external examination of

Feathers and flu: identifying data gaps in avian influenza host dynamics to prioritize wildlife conservation Plumas y gripe: identificación de datos faltantes en la dinámica de hospedadores de la influenza aviar para priorizar la conservación de la vida silvestre

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 225, Issue 1, September 2026.
We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.

Functional Morphology of the Pedal Musculature and Grip Force Estimation in the Red‑and‑Green Macaw (Ara chloropterus Gray, 1859)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 8, August 2026.
Integration of detailed hindlimb anatomy with biomechanical analyses demonstrates that pedal performance in the red‐and‐green macaw is driven by specialized muscle architecture and force distribution. Hypertrophy of digit IV flexor musculature, together with modifications of the intrinsic and extensor muscles, enhances grasping stability, climbing, and

DNA barcoding for identification of species involved in wildlife strikes at Brazilian airports

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
A collaborative network of 42 Brazilian airports applied DNA barcoding to identify 80 species involved in wildlife strikes. Among them, 32 species (17 birds and 15 bats) were not currently available in Brazil's wildlife strike reporting database, underscoring the value of molecular tools for strengthening wildlife strike monitoring. Abstract This study

Avian influenza overview March–May 2026

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Between 28 February and 4 June 2026, 949 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (186) and wild (763) birds in 30 countries in Europe. The downward trend in the number of detections observed at the end of the previous reporting period continued and is expected to persist throughout the summer ...
