Design and Application of a Genome-Wide SNP Array to Improve Conservation Outcomes in the Critically Endangered Southern Corroboree Frog. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Species‐specific genomic information has the potential to transform modern conservation management strategies through improved genomic assessment and management outcomes. Gaining genomic insights into genetic diversity, adaptability and potential resilience against infectious diseases is essential to enhance conservation efforts for threatened

Examining the Effectiveness of Automated Acoustic Recording Units for Recording Predator-Related Disturbances in Colony Nesting Birds: A Case Study. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Automated recording units (ARUs) have soared in popularity within the field of avian research and have been used in various studies to replace human observers when collecting data. There is, however, a lack of research into the actual reliability of ARUs when compared to in‐person observers, especially when investigating avian behavior. This case study

Population impact to bald eagles by ingested lead in New York State, 1990–2018

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023
While the recent population recovery of bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) in New York State, USA, is a conservation success, evidence from necropsies suggest that ingested lead (Pb) from ammunition fragments is causing morbidity and mortality to ...

Lead Intoxication in Free-Ranging Bald Eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) [PDF]

Veterinary Pathology, 2018
Lead toxicity due to ingestion of spent ammunition is an ongoing cause of mortality in bald eagles. While gross and histologic lesions of lead intoxication have been described in a few individuals of this species, the prevalence of lesions is underreported. A retrospective study of 93 bald eagles with severe lead intoxication was performed to describe
