Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.There is a lack of research on the predation of tropical pheasant nests. The study conducted artificial nest experiments based on egg size and we have supported the viewpoint that using experimental eggs matched in size with those of natural eggs improves the accuracy of artificial nest simulation studies. ABSTRACT Nest predation is the principal cause

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Using feral pigeons in urban environments, we show that microbiome diversity and composition vary seasonally despite stable diet composition. ABSTRACT Gut microbiomes play a crucial role in host physiology and seasonal adaptation. While seasonal shifts in avian gut microbiota are often attributed to seasonal diet variation, environmental factors may be

Monitoring mercury across the National Wildlife Refuge System using a biosentinel approach
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.We measured mercury concentrations in 1,356 dragonfly larvae collected from 30 National Wildlife Refuges across the United States and found wide variability among refuges, spanning the full range reported for other protected lands. Using a management‐focused mercury impairment index, 80% of refuges contained sites classified as moderate or higher risk.
