利用线粒体DNA细胞色素c氧化酶亚基Ⅰ基因(COⅠ)和16S核糖体RNA(16S rRNA)基因鉴定某公安机关查获的1件鸟类残体所属物种。结果表明:鸟类残体样本的COⅠ、16S rRNA基因片段与白枕鹤(Antigone vipio)对应的序列相似度均不低于98.98%,遗传距离分别为0.001~0.007和0。基于这2个基因片段构建系统发育树,显示鸟类残体样本与白枕鹤均聚为一支,鉴定该鸟类残体属白枕鹤所有。得到的COⅠ和16S rRNA基因片段可作为鉴定鹤科(Gruidae)鸟类的分子标记。

Assessing capture and tagging methods for brolgas, Antigone rubicunda (Gruidae) [PDF]
Context Studies assessing welfare issues and efficiency of animal capture methods are important, as capture can pose a significant welfare risk and methods can be time consuming to develop. It is imperative to choose methods that minimise injuries, maximise capture rates and minimise time spent on capture.

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non‐CITES birds between Africa and Asia
Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...

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 ...

Avian influenza overview September–November 2025
Abstract Between 6 September and 28 November 2025, 2896 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (442) and wild (2454) birds in 29 countries in Europe. The magnitude and geographical extent of these detections were unprecedented for this time of the year, particularly in wild birds.
