Beyond birds: rethinking bird‐centered pathogen models in light of insect migration
Ecography, EarlyView.Migration redistributes biomass, nutrients, and pathogens across ecosystems. For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long‐distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology.
