A Second brood in Canada Geese Branta canadensis?

Ornis Svecica, 2014
Canada Geese Branta canadensis do normally not produce more than one clutch per year. On the island of Nidingen off the west coast of Sweden a pair of Canada Geese successfully reared one early brood of young in the spring (2 and 8 young respectively in 2011 and 2012).

Assessing sustainable lethal take for great blue heron in the northeastern United States

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
We used Prescribed Take Level (PTL) models to estimate sustainable take limits for great blue heron and aid depredation permitting decisions by the USFWS in the northeastern United States. The PTL models suggested that current lethal take levels are sustainable and that cumulative authorized regional take should not exceed 2,650 individuals per year ...

Serological and molecular detection of Toxoplasma gondii in terrestrial and marine wildlife harvested for food in Nunavik, Canada

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Toxoplasma gondii, a zoonotic protozoan parasite, infects mammals and birds worldwide. Infection in humans is often asymptomatic, though illnesses can occur in immunocompromised hosts and the fetuses of susceptible women infected during ...

The Evolution of a Polar Cap Patch Into a Blob in the Nightside Ionosphere: Direct Observations of Multiple Blob Formation Mechanisms Acting Simultaneously on the Same Plasma

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract A polar cap patch was observed to exit the polar cap to become a blob as it entered the auroral oval on the nightside of the Earth under moderately quiet geomagnetic conditions (Kp = 3−). Auroral particle precipitation led to an increase in the electron density of the blob.

The Effectiveness of Postharvest Processing on Microbiological Safety of Game Meat—A Systematic Review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The rising global consumption of game meat has highlighted gaps in the management of biological hazards associated with its production and consumption, and the safety of processed game meat products remain insufficiently addressed. Therefore, there is a need for research evaluating the effectiveness of processing and preservation methods in ...

Measuring Personality in Wild Small Mammals: A Review of Methods and Proposal for a Standardised Approach

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
We provide a systematic review of methodologies used to study personality in small mammals. We propose adopting ‘Standardised Experimental Design’ and ‘Behavioural Measurements’ to effectively compare results across studies and foster progress in this field.

Marine Mammals in the Anthropocene: Developing a Systematic Evidence Base of Threats to Nineteen Species

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Marine mammals are vulnerable to a variety of anthropogenic threats, yet a global systematic map of the literature for 19 species found both spatial and temporal disparity in research effort between threats and between species. There are knowledge gaps for species and threats, with effort unequal across many species' ranges.

The Volatile Pentadecane From Bacillus Alleviates Plant Iron Deficiency Through Activating the Reduction‐Based Fe Uptake System

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1564-1577, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. Rhizosphere microorganisms play crucial roles in plant Fe nutrition, yet the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we assessed the effect of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by Bacillus velezensis SQR9 on Fe uptake in Arabidopsis, elucidated ...

Avian influenza overview December 2025–February 2026

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Between 29 November 2025 and 27 February 2026, 2514 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (406) and wild (2108) birds in 32 countries in Europe. Albeit still at high levels after the peak was reached at the beginning of the current reporting period, the weekly number of detections has since ...

Managing problems caused by urban Canada geese

, 1997
Canada geese (Branta canadensis) started nesting in urban areas during the past 50 years. Today, most urban areas in the U. S. and Canada support breeding populations of these birds. Many of these resident goose populations are the result of a successful effort by fish and wildlife agencies to restore populations of giant Canada goose (Branta ...
