Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.Wildlife research has benefitted from the development of new methods that allow data to be collected remotely, with less disturbance to focal animals. The proliferation of livestreaming webcams, for example, those used by nature reserves for public engagement purposes, have offered new possibilities for the study of wildlife behaviour.

Demographic consequences of translocation of overabundant Canada geese breeding in urban areas
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017 Translocation is a common tool for managing nuisance Canada geese (Branta canadensis) in urban areas across North America. However, no previous research has assessed how translocation affects survival and philopatry at donor and release sites.

Exploring sources of uncertainty in the estimate of waterfowl harvest in the United Kingdom
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.There is an urgent need to gather data on harvest rates of waterbirds in Europe to assess the sustainability of hunting. Estimates of total waterbird harvest in the United Kingdom (UK) and the relative harvest of different huntable species come from two separate surveys, the Value of Shooting (PACEC 2014) and National Gamebag Census (NGC), and these ...
