Behavioral Evidence of Predator–Predator Commensalism: Cobia Track and Feed on Prey Disturbed by Southern Stingrays

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 3, Page 225-234, March 2026.
We documented a novel predator–predator commensal foraging interaction between cobia (Rachycentron canadum) and a southern stingray (Hypanus americanus) in a shallow coastal habitat of Biscayne Bay, Florida. Using drone‐based observations, we recorded a 7‐min sequence in which a cobia closely tracked the stingray's movements and fed on prey disturbed ...

Marking power lines to reduce avian collisions near the Audubon National Wildlife Refuge, North Dakota

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Overhead power lines can pose collision risks to birds. Risks may be mitigated through marking lines with high‐visibility devices, but the effectiveness of line marking remains unclear.

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 ...

Climate Change, Local Harvests and Marine Contamination: A Perspective on Cetacean Populations and Coastal Whaling Communities

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Cetaceans are indicators of ocean health, influence marine ecosystem dynamics and hold socio‐economic importance for coastal whaling communities. Yet whale–whaler relationships remain poorly understood and are increasingly compromised under the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. Here, we briefly outline

Seabird Diversity and Deterrence on Floating Oyster Cages

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Off‐bottom oyster aquaculture involves the use of floating gear, which increases the surface area at the farm and provides roosting sites for seabirds. State authorities require oyster growers to have operational plans that outline mitigation or deterrent strategies to prevent interactions between birds and floating aquaculture gear.

The impact of boat activities associated with an acoustic fish telemetry study on waterbird populations in a Special Protection Area

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract It is widely recognized that the research techniques used to monitor and study wildlife have the potential to disturb and alter the behavior of the study species. However, other impacts on sensitive, non‐target, species are rarely investigated.

Human–Bird Interactions Across Time and Space in a Bronze Age City: The Case of Tell Atchana, Alalakh (Amuq Valley, Turkey)

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 597-611, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Birds have played both subsistence and symbolic roles in past human societies, with their significance evolving alongside sedentary lifestyles and agriculture. Although Neolithic settlements in Western Asia primarily relied on domesticated mammals, birds remained a marginal resource, their importance varying by region.
