Non‐Passerine Birds in Zoos: A Global Approach on Distribution Patterns of Threatened Birds in Zoological Institutions 动物园中非雀形目鸟类:全球动物机构中受威胁鸟类的分布模式研究

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 600-615, December 2025.
Only 1541 (34.2%) of 4503 recognized non‐passerine bird species are held in ZIMS institutions worldwide. Approximately ~83% of the species kept globally are classified as non‐threatened and ~16% as threatened. To improve the conservation of threatened birds, a shift toward keeping threatened species should be considered within ex situ management ...

Treatment of pressure gun fractures and release in the wild of a caracara (Caracara plancus)

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract This report aims to describe the treatment progression of a free‐living southern crested caracara (Caracara plancus plancus) with gunshot‐related fractures. Radiographic examination revealed a comminuted fracture in the mid‐diaphysis of the humerus with displaced fragments, a comminuted fracture of the proximal third of the radius shaft, and ...

Phylogeny of Falconidae and phylogeography of Peregrine Falcons [PDF]

open access: yesOrnis Hungarica, 2018
Abstract We first examine how falcons can be integrated into avian tree of life. Then we go one step further and investigate the position of Peregrine Falcons in a comprehensive phylogeny of the falcons (genus Falco), which was reconstructed on the basis of DNA sequences.

Prevalence and Diversity of Haemosporidian–Associated Matryoshka RNA Viruses in a Natural Population of Wild Birds

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
This study investigated the prevalence and diversity of Matryoshka RNA viruses (MaRNAV) in wild birds in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. Using RNA sequencing and RT‐PCR, we identified two novel MaRNAVs (MaRNAV‐5 and ‐6) associated with haemosporidian infections in passerines and raptors. These findings suggest a high prevalence of these viruses,

Beware of hitchhiking ticks? Clarifying the variable roles of bird species in tick movement along migratory routes

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 3, May 2025.
Ticks are blood‐feeding parasites which act as major vectors for various pathogenic microorganisms affecting both animal and human health. Hard ticks are known to move passively (i.e. ‘hitchhike') on migratory birds as they transit between breeding and non‐breeding grounds.
