Evaluating the efficacy of carbachol at reducing corvid predation on artificial nests

open access: yesWildlife 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.

Arboreal twig-nesting ants form dominance hierarchies over nesting resources. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Interspecific dominance hierarchies have been widely reported across animal systems. High-ranking species are expected to monopolize more resources than low-ranking species via resource monopolization. In some ant species, dominance hierarchies have been

Snakes are the principal nest predators of the threatened reed parrotbill in a coastal wetland of eastern China

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Nest predation is a major limiting factor of bird reproductive success, and predation by snakes may have particularly adverse effects on passerines. The reed parrotbill (Paradoxornis heudei) is a threatened passerine that inhabits reedbeds in East China,
