Comprehensive Evaluation of Bisphenol A Toxicity Reveals Neurobehavioral, Metabolic, and Reproductive Impairments in Girardia tigrina

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA), a common industrial chemical used in plastics and consumer products, is increasingly detected in aquatic environments, raising serious concerns about its potential ecological impacts. This study evaluated the sublethal and acute toxic effects of BPA on the freshwater planarian Girardia tigrina, a recognized model for ...

Detection of Leptospira in cane toads (Rhinella jimi) from urban and rural Paraíba, Brazil

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Leptospirosis is a significant zoonosis in tropical regions, where poor sanitation and favourable climate aid its spread. Synanthropic animals such as the cane toad (Rhinella jimi), which share environments with both people and wild and domestic animals, may harbour Leptospira and contribute to urban and rural transmission cycles ...

Monitoring active osprey nests with drones is more time efficient and less disturbing than conventional methods

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Drones are used to monitor bird nesting sites at less accessible locations, such as on cliffs, human infrastructure, or within the tree canopy. While there are a growing number of studies documenting avian behavioral responses to various drones, there is a continued need to monitor taxa‐specific responses to different drone models. We explored both the

Differences in mammal community response to highway construction across different levels of human land use

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Worldwide, transportation agencies have been involved in road mitigation efforts to reduce road mortality and promote connectivity of endangered species. Baseline data on how mammals respond to highway construction, however, are rarely collected in road mitigation and monitoring studies, including in the USA.

‘Using anuran community diversity and Pseudacris crucifer to predict landscape quality across a land use gradient'

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As human‐modified landscape and climate changes proliferate, maintaining biodiversity and understanding the function and quality of available habitat is imperative. As anurans (frogs/toads) such as Pseudacris crucifer, can be an indicator species of habitat quality and ecosystem productivity, studying the anuran community in a mixed‐land use region ...
