A more‐than‐human political ecology of Indonesian songbird trade

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Since its inception, conservation science has considered wildlife trade a problem. In focusing on conservation outcomes, conservationists almost completely ignore the welfare of traded animals and plants and the harms they endure. We developed a political ecology approach that incorporates the interconnectedness of people with animals and ...

Airborne Environmental DNA Analysis as a Tool to Monitor Live Bird Trade

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
We explore airborne environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis as a novel tool to detect avian species and assess its potential for monitoring bird trade. We collected airborne samples in both enclosed and open market environments, accompanied by visual surveys, and processed them using DNA extraction and metabarcoding to identify avian taxa.

The role of socialization network to understand the adoption of demand‐reduction behaviors: The red siskin's breeders community case study

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2025.
Social network analysis and decision‐making models revealed how socialization networks and psychosocial factors influence the adoption of sustainable bird‐sourcing practices among red siskin breeders across Venezuela, Brazil, Spain, and Portugal. Key findings, such as the role of information flow and attitudes towards collaboration, highlight the ...

FOGS: A SNPSTR Marker Database to Combat Wildlife Trafficking and a Cell Culture Bank for Ex‐Situ Conservation

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 4, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Illegal wildlife trade is a growing problem internationally. Poaching of animals not only leads to the extinction of populations and species but also has serious consequences for ecosystems and economies. This study introduces a molecular marker system that authorities can use to detect and substantiate wildlife trafficking.

The Role of Two Tyrosinase‐Like Glycoenzymes in Defining the Final Hue of Parrot Plumage

Pigment Cell &Melanoma Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in avian melanogenesis have pinpointed multiple genetic loci associated with color polymorphisms, predominantly in the plumage of chickens, quails, and pigeons. However, the genetic basis of melaninization in parrot plumage remains elusive.

A review of commercial captive breeding of parrots as a supply‐side intervention to address unsustainable trade

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract The volume and scale of commercial captive breeding of parrots have grown dramatically in recent decades. Although it has been proposed, and is often assumed, that captive breeding can reduce pressure on wild populations, there has been little scrutiny of the scale, viability, or impacts of captive breeding to prevent overexploitation among ...

Monitoring change: A Behavior‐Centered Theory of Change for effective demand reduction interventions

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 10, October 2024.
Our work integrates Theory of Change frameworks with behavioral models to create a Behavior‐Centered Theory of Change (BC‐ToC) that allows to design and evaluate behavioral interventions by describing both behavioral and progress indicators to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions in changing the target behavioral state.
