Light wavelength and pulsing frequency affect avoidance responses of Canada geese [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Collisions between birds and aircraft cause bird mortality, economic damage, and aviation safety hazards. One proposed solution to increasing the distance at which birds detect and move away from an approaching aircraft, ultimately mitigating the ...

Archaeal diversity in the microbiomes of four wild bird species [PDF]
Microbiology SpectrumArchaea are generally low-abundance members of the vertebrate microbiota that require specific PCR primers to be detected in metabarcoding studies, and the robust intraspecific sample size is necessary for well-supported conclusions about archaeal ...

Harvest Demographics of Temperate-Breeding Canada Geese in South Dakota, 1967–1995
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 In South Dakota, breeding giant Canada geese (Branta canadensis maxima) have increased substantially, and harvest management strategies have been implemented to maximize hunting opportunity (e.g., special early-September seasons) on local, as well as ...

Population and Spatial Dynamics of Resident Canada Geese in Southeastern Nebraska
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 In response to increasing populations, damage complaints, and a desire to understand population and spatial dynamics, we studied population size, survival rates, home ranges, movements, and site fidelity of female resident Canada geese (Branta canadensis)

Translocation, survival, and recovery of Kansas‐banded Canada geese
Ecosphere, 2021 Temperate‐breeding, or resident, Canada geese were once extirpated in Kansas, USA, but currently provide abundant viewing and hunting opportunities. Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism (KDWPT) began reintroducing geese in 1980 with a goal ...
