Sustained contraceptive‐level plasma concentrations of 4,4′‐dinitrocarbanilide in free‐ranging urban feral pigeons fed a custom bait Niveles plasmáticos altos y sostenidos de 4,4′‐dinitrocarbanilida en palomas domésticas libres alimentadas con un cebo anticonceptivo

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 4, December 2025.
We assessed the acceptability and consumption of a custom‐developed nicarbazin bait for feral pigeons, inferred its contraceptive efficacy, and evaluated the reversibility of its effects upon cessation of treatment. Only feral pigeons consumed the bait, except for one eared dove that also ingested the food. Continuous administration of this bait raised

A new beef: An analysis of discourse coalitions in the nascent cellular agriculture policy subsystem

Review of Policy Research, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1404-1427, November 2025.
Abstract A robust approach to examining the nature and influence of coalitions in the policy process is the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF), which is especially useful to study policy issues fraught with scientific and technical controversy. Yet, important gaps exist in ACF literature regarding nascent policy subsystems. Consequently, there is scant

Rapid riparian ecosystem decline in Rocky Mountain National Park

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Understanding the drivers of ecosystem collapse is critical for resource management, particularly for protected areas mandated to preserve biodiversity. In Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, tall willows (Salix spp.) dominated riparian vegetation, and a beaver–willow state was the natural ecosystem type in the Colorado River headwaters ...

Alimentos alternativos como indutor de muda forçada em codornas poedeiras

Revista Acadêmica Ciência Animal, 2019
A utilização de métodos de muda forçada alternativos ao convencional na avicultura está em crescimento, visando bem-estar animal e menor agressão para as aves, porém, na coturnicultura este manejo ainda é pouco utilizado. Diante disso, objetivou-se avaliar três tipos de alimentos como método alternativo ao comumente utilizado (restrição alimentar) de ...

Assessing Closed Hydroponic Subsystems for Batavia Lettuce Growth Under Different Planting Densities

World Water Policy, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 427-438, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Hydroponic systems have the potential to be sustainable and alternative methods for food production that confer advantages of high production and better control of growth. However, only a few studies have focused on leafy vegetable growth in different subsystems and environmental variables.
