Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

Home range shifts and habitat selection across life‐history stages in grey partridges

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how birds use space throughout the year is essential for effective conservation planning, even in resident species. We investigated seasonal space use in a Central European population of grey partridges Perdix perdix, a rapidly declining residential farmland bird.

The effects of prestorage incubation and length of storage of broiler breeder eggs on hatchability and subsequent growth performance of progeny

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2006
A total of 1 200 broiler breeder eggs were collected from a commercial flock at the hen age of 37 weeks and divided into storage treatments of 5 and 15 days. Prior to storage, the eggs were further divided into pre-storage incubation (PRESI) 0 (control),

Pest‐preservation paradox among insects

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
The pest‐preservation paradox is a non‐binary perspective that insects range from those that are harmful and requiring management on the one side, to those requiring conservation intervention on the opposite end of the spectrum. Importantly, the vast majority of insects occur somewhere in the center of the two extremes, and their position along the ...

Breeder hen ages and the storage period of the eggs over the incubation efficiency and starter performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Two experiments have been carried out to evaluate the effect of the breeder hen ages and of the storage period of the eggs over the incubation efficiency and initial performance of laying hens.

Choline Requirements of Turkey Breeder Hens

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1964
Abstract THE justification for added choline in the diets of turkey breeder hens seems to be based mostly on the known requirements of poults. Considerable research with chicken breeder hens indicates that additions of choline to semi-purified or extracted diets may increase egg size, yolk size, and hatchability of fertile eggs (Ringrose and Davis ...

The depth and breadth of capitalism at the Cape

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Limited liability company legislation was introduced to the Cape Colony in 1861. An amendment in 1892 led to wider adoption, expanding and diversifying the capital market. Using novel data from the Cape Joint Stock Archive between 1892 and 1902, this paper examines who invested, where capital flowed, and how these patterns shaped firm outcomes

Comparison of the Ability of Different Types of Birds to Derive Energy from Corn and Soybean Meal [PDF]

open access: yesPoultry Science Journal
This study evaluated the ability of different types of birds to derive energy from corn and soybean meal (SBM) using the reference diet substitution method. The corn and SBM were combined into a reference diet at 60 and 30%, respectively.
