Long-term demography of a reintroduced population of endangered falcons

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2022
We examined long-term demography of an endangered subspecies, the Northern Aplomado Falcon (Falco femoralis septentrionalis), in South Texas, USA. The population has been managed and monitored since reintroductions began in 1993.

Age-Specific Survival Estimation of a Eurasian Crane Population Highlights a Long-Term Decline in Juvenile Survival. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The Eurasian crane (Grus grus), a symbol of conservation success in Europe, has made an impressive recovery. However, our results show that over the study period, juvenile survival declined by almost 30% overall, while sub‐adults experienced a smaller decrease, and adults showed no change.

Annual survival estimation of migratory songbirds confounded by incomplete breeding site-fidelity: study designs that may help [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2004
Many species of bird exhibit varying degrees of site–fidelity to the previous year’s territory or breeding area, a phenomenon we refer to as incomplete breeding site–fidelity. If the territory they occupy is located beyond the bounds of the study area or

Cryptic disease-induced mortality may cause host extinction in an apparently stable host- parasite system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The decline of wildlife populations due to emerging infectious disease often shows a common pattern: the parasite invades a naive host population, producing epidemic disease and a population decline, sometimes with extirpation.

Covariantes continuas individuales dependientes del tiempo y el modelo de Cormack–Jolly–Seber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Cormack–Jolly–Seber model provides the basic framework for analyzing the survival of animals in open populations using capture–recapture data. Extensions of this model have already been developed that allow the survival and capture probabilities to ...

Fate of orphans of Canada geese harvested by hunters in Connecticut, USA, depends upon which month the parents were killed

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Little is known about what happens to juvenile birds after one or both of their parents are harvested by hunters during the post‐fledging dependency period. Here, we compare the fate of juvenile Canada geese Branta canadensis that lost ≥ 1 parent to hunters (orphans) during this period to other juveniles that retained both parents (non‐orphans). For 25

Apparent annual survival of staging ruffs during a period of population decline: insights from sex and site-use related differences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ruff Philomachus pugnax, a lekkingshorebird wintering in Africa and breeding across northernEurasia, declined severely in its western range. Based on acapture-mark-resighting programme (2004–2011) in thewesternmost staging area in Friesland (the ...

Drone‐based radiotelemetry and imagery systems provide an advantage over traditional techniques for estimating survival of dependent juveniles

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We used drone‐based radiotelemetry and multispectral imagery to estimate detection and survival probabilities of blue‐winged teal broods in Saskatchewan, Canada. Weekly brood survival probabilities, estimated via Cormack‐Jolly‐Seber models, increased with age and were comparable between drone methods.

Anthropogenic and Environmental Factors Influence Kentish Plover (Anarhynchus alexandrinus) Survival in a Conservation-Reliant Coastal Population

open access: yesBirds
Bird survival is influenced by both natural and anthropogenic factors, including weather conditions and oil spills. In this study, we examined the impact of a major oil spill (Prestige oil tanker) and climatic conditions (precipitation and wind) on ...
