Macronutrient and micronutrient profiles of meat types: insights into human health and diet
Abstract Despite considerable advances in global health and nutrition, emerging challenges such as population growth, climate change, and limited natural resources continue to threaten food security. Meat remains an essential component of the human diet, supplying high‐quality proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, and minerals necessary ...

Living on the edge: Habitat characteristics of northern myotis at the periphery of its distribution
Northern myotis selected tall trees with minimal decay, in patches with other roosting options. In our study area, these trees occurred in narrow bands within an agricultural matrix, differing from contiguous forest at the core of the species' distribution. Nevertheless, bats selected the tallest trees in the densest patches available.

Combining large‐scale avian surveys with remote sensing products revealed landscape variables that likely limit scaled quail occurrence at the ecoregion scale in Texas. Promoting management practices that address ecoregion‐specific limiting factors may be key to averting further declines.

Evaluation of the marking duration of iophenoxic acid (IPA) derivatives in raccoons (Procyon lotor)
We evaluated the marking duration and intensity of iophenoxic acid (IPA) analogues in raccoon (Procyon lotor) serum following consumption of test doses encapsulated in a marshmallow or formulated into an oral rabies vaccine bait matrix. The IPA biomarkers demonstrated utility for evaluation of oral rabies vaccination baiting strategies targeting ...

Models of spatiotemporal variation in hunter harvest show that monsoon precipitation and changes in hunter behavior and composition are the primary drivers underlying variation in annual harvest of Montezuma quail. The demographic structure of the previous year's harvest was also strongly associated with the magnitude and rate of annual harvest ...

The North Slave Métis Alliance's Indigenous Guardianship Program conducted on‐the‐ground patrols monitoring caribou interactions with the Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter road and quantify caribou harvest. Quantifying the impacts of winter roads on barren‐ground caribou herds supports community members’ commitment to safeguarding their traditional territory

We use ecological niche model predictions across the next 3 decades for 263 forest‐dependent, terrestrial, vertebrate species of conservation concern in the Southeastern Appalachians under 4 future climate scenarios. We overlay these predictions with a collaborative conservation plan to determine if the priority map successfully represents potential ...

Snowshoe hare population densities in Pennsylvania were greatest in early‐successional forest and densely‐understoried mature forest. Forest management that increases and maintains the amount of early‐successional forest, or that increases understory complexity in mature forest, would benefit snowshoe hares and may mitigate population declines under ...

Bears selected areas with lower percent slope and higher percent canopy, but movement flow across the landscape was more generalized for translocated bears. Interstate 40 was a barrier to movement, but our models predicted several consistent road segments as having higher than average flow where bears might benefit from crossing structures.

ABSTRACT Chemical compliance remains the usual endpoint for closing contaminated‐soil remediation projects, although it does not establish recovery of soil function or the durability of the post‐treatment state. This critical review examines when microbiological evidence can contribute to ecological closure decisions.
