A national assessment of waterbird hunting in coastal wetlands of Suriname, South America

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We examined waterbird harvest levels in Suriname using hunter survey data from 2006 and 2016. The analysis showed a significant decline in the average harvest per hunter over the decade, except for blue‐winged teal and migratory shorebirds. However, the sustainability of current harvest levels remains uncertain, underscoring the need for a national ...

External structures at the nest‐site predict asymmetric architecture of nests in a mud‐building bird

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
In the animal kingdom, nests are essential structures and textbook examples of extended phenotypes. However, the relationship between builders, nest traits and the nest‐site remains poorly understood. We indirectly examine whether structures in the nest‐site influence nest‐building behaviour, specifically focusing on their effect on nest architecture ...
