Road mortality mitigation for red wolves requires a landscape approach
In 1980, the red wolf Canis rufus was declared extinct in the wild. However, starting in 1987, a captive breeding program allowed for a reintroduction effort in and around Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge (Alligator River NWR), North Carolina, USA. In 2012 the wild red wolf population peaked at about 120 individuals.

American crow Corvus brachyrhynchos is a common species throughout North America. Crows play a role in the ecology of multiple diseases and a single laboratory experiment has shown the potential for crows to pass infectious prions, such as those associated with chronic wasting disease (CWD), in their feces after being force‐fed with infected material ...

Development of a reliable PCR‐based protocol for molecular sexing of king vultures Sarcoramphus papa
The king vulture Sarcoramphus papa is a large Neotropical scavenger that lacks external sexual dimorphism, complicating demographic, ecological, and conservation studies. Reliable sex identification is therefore essential, particularly for wild and managed populations. In this study, we assessed and optimized a PCR‐based molecular sexing protocol for S.

This study investigates the breeding success of the critically endangered White‐rumped Vulture in Khaireni Community Forest, and examines local knowledge and perceptions toward its conservation. We found that 71% of active nests were successful, with breeding success significantly influenced by the proximity to carcass deposition sites.
