Past research and future directions in understanding how birds use their sense of smell

Ibis, EarlyView.
Our understanding of the functional importance of olfaction to birds has improved over the past 60 years, largely as the result of experimental studies testing how birds use their sense of smell in different contexts. As it is impossible to measure directly which odours birds can detect, we rely on measuring behavioural responses to scent cues or ...

FOGS: A SNPSTR Marker Database to Combat Wildlife Trafficking and a Cell Culture Bank for Ex‐Situ Conservation

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 4, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Illegal wildlife trade is a growing problem internationally. Poaching of animals not only leads to the extinction of populations and species but also has serious consequences for ecosystems and economies. This study introduces a molecular marker system that authorities can use to detect and substantiate wildlife trafficking.

Under the radar: The availability of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs in South America and implications for avian scavenger populations

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2025.
The use of diclofenac and other nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been identified as a cause of vulture decline in Asia and Europe. Investigation into the availability of two NSAIDs (diclofenac and flunixin) in South America found that both are approved for veterinary use and are accessible in all countries searched, across many ...
