Optimization of Sperm Cryopreservation Protocol for Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus). [PDF]

Animals (Basel), 2020
Sperm cryopreservation is a complex process that needs to be adapted to wild and domestic avian species to ensure proper efficiency. Because of its accessibility, the peregrine falcon may be used as a good model for studying other raptor species. To find the most optimal cryopreservation protocol for peregrine falcon ejaculates, sperm parameters such ...

Resident and Migratory Falcons' Breeding Phenology and Productivity Respond Differently to Weather and Climate Change Across the Arctic [PDF]

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Climate change is altering breeding phenology and productivity of peregrine falcons and gyrfalcons across the circumpolar Arctic. Long‐term monitoring shows that responses vary among study areas and Arctic regions, with some populations advancing hatch dates while others show weaker or contrasting trends, highlighting spatially variable effects of ...

Induced triple clutching in captivity for three falcon species: Common Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), Saker Falcon (Falco cherrug) and Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) [PDF]

Biodiversity Data Journal
Triple clutching within a single breeding season is rarely documented in falcons, particularly under captive conditions. This study reports the occurrence of triple clutching in three falcon species — Common Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), Saker Falcon ...

Primer registro de Serratospiculum tendo (Nematoda: Diplotriaenidae) para el Perú

Revista Peruana de Biología, 2014
Reportamos por primera vez la presencia del nematodo, Serratospiculum tendo Nitzsch, 1819, parasitando los sacos aéreos de un halcón peregrino (Falco peregrinus Tunstall, 1771). Seis nematodos (2 machos y 4 hembras) fueron colectados e identificados como

Functional Morphology of the Pedal Musculature and Grip Force Estimation in the Red‑and‑Green Macaw (Ara chloropterus Gray, 1859) [PDF]

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 8, August 2026.
Integration of detailed hindlimb anatomy with biomechanical analyses demonstrates that pedal performance in the red‐and‐green macaw is driven by specialized muscle architecture and force distribution. Hypertrophy of digit IV flexor musculature, together with modifications of the intrinsic and extensor muscles, enhances grasping stability, climbing, and

Sedimentary Metagenomics Reveal Avian Community Transitions From the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We used sedimentary ancient DNA shotgun metagenomics to reconstruct past bird communities in northern high‐latitude environments. By using long time series and data collected across a large environmental gradient, we contributed in a unique and explorative way to the understanding of palaeoecological dynamics between birds and their habitat on the ...
