Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

Integrating fecal DNA and telemetry to estimate wildlife densities in anthropogenic landscapes

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Density estimation is central to wildlife management efforts but can be challenging in anthropogenic landscapes due to small parcel sizes, access restrictions, and limited green space. We evaluated (a) the use of a plot‐based spatial capture‐recapture sampling design to estimate deer density in developed landscapes and (b) if integrating telemetry data

Development of Microsatellite Markers for Ex Situ Management of the Harpy Eagle Using Next Generation Sequencing

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Harpy Eagle (Harpia harpyja), one of the largest birds of prey in the world, is threatened with extinction throughout its entire area of occurrence in the Neotropics. While conservation efforts for the wild populations are crucial, it is also important to focus on ex situ conservation actions.
