Survey for Hemoparasites in Imperial Eagles (Aquila heliaca), Steppe Eagles (Aquila nipalensis), and White-tailed Sea Eagles (Haliaeetus albicilla) from Kazakhstan [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Wildlife Diseases, 2004
Prevalence of hemoparasites has been investigated in many avian species throughout Europe and North America. Basic hematologic surveys are the first step toward evaluating whether host-parasite prevalences observed in North America and Europe occur elsewhere in the world. We collected blood smears from 94 nestling imperial eagles (Aquila heliaca), five

Non‐Passerine Birds in Zoos: A Global Approach on Distribution Patterns of Threatened Birds in Zoological Institutions 动物园中非雀形目鸟类:全球动物机构中受威胁鸟类的分布模式研究

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 600-615, December 2025.
Only 1541 (34.2%) of 4503 recognized non‐passerine bird species are held in ZIMS institutions worldwide. Approximately ~83% of the species kept globally are classified as non‐threatened and ~16% as threatened. To improve the conservation of threatened birds, a shift toward keeping threatened species should be considered within ex situ management ...

Seasonal Exploitation of Migratory Waterfowl at Natufian el‐Wad Terrace, Mount Carmel, Israel

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 555-570, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Increased avian exploitation is a hallmark of broad‐spectrum subsistence strategies in the Levantine Natufian culture (15,000–11,700 cal. BP). However, detailed publications of bird remains from the Natufian are scant, especially regarding the Early Natufian, and the available evidence shows high inter‐site variability that begs explanation ...

Under the radar: The availability of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs in South America and implications for avian scavenger populations

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2025.
The use of diclofenac and other nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been identified as a cause of vulture decline in Asia and Europe. Investigation into the availability of two NSAIDs (diclofenac and flunixin) in South America found that both are approved for veterinary use and are accessible in all countries searched, across many ...

A novel, post‐Soviet fire disturbance regime drives bird diversity and abundance on the Eurasian steppe

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 1, January 2024.
The break‐up of the Soviet Union in 1991 and subsequent land abandonment in the Kazakh steppe resulted in increased fire activity that altered vegetation structure of the steppe. Effects of fire persisted for at least 8 years, leading to significant declines in bird populations and changes in community composition.
