Using Artificial Nests To Study Nest Predation IN BIRDS
The American Biology Teacher, 2005 A simple and effective field exercise that demonstrates factors affecting predation on bird nests is described. With instructor guidance, students in high school biology or college-level biology, ecology, animal behavior, wildlife management or ornithology laboratory courses can collaborate to design field experiments related to nest depredation.

Evaluating the efficacy of carbachol at reducing corvid predation on artificial nests
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2018 Nest predation often limits recovery of threatened and endangered birds, especially ground‐nesting species. Accordingly, a variety of techniques are used to reduce the impact of nest predation on listed species.
