Pest‐preservation paradox among insects

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
The pest‐preservation paradox is a non‐binary perspective that insects range from those that are harmful and requiring management on the one side, to those requiring conservation intervention on the opposite end of the spectrum. Importantly, the vast majority of insects occur somewhere in the center of the two extremes, and their position along the ...

Importance of using genetic data to inform conservation captive breeding: A tale of two species of threatened macaws (Ara spp.)

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Unmanaged captive populations of threatened species often harbor hidden genetic risks, so using genomic tools, we audited a large private macaw collection and uncovered extensive hybridization and high inbreeding. Our findings provide an actionable framework for how routine genetic screening can be used to mitigate these risks, manage captive breeding ...

The cat's out of the bag: Examining US wildlife trade of felids from 2000 to 2020

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Felids feature heavily in the wildlife trade, and an investigation into LEMIS data from 2000 to 2020 showed felid imports were dominated by bobcats and Canada lynx for fur, while tigers and leopards were the most commonly traded cats in the illegal market, primarily as medicinal products.

Climatic, biogeographic and ecological factors influence the spatial patterns of odd‐ and even‐year dominance in biennial European butterflies and burnet moths

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
250,000 observations of 7 annual, 11 biennial and 4 flexible lepidoptera species in the Alps and over 150,000 observations of 5 biennial species from Scandinavia were analysed. Maps show distinct patterns of different species that fly predominantly in odd or even years in the researched areas.

Should equine practitioners still prescribe chloramphenicol for treating horses?

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Clinical breakpoints for chloramphenicol are not currently available to test susceptibility of bacteria isolated from horses. Without these breakpoints, testing the susceptibility of bacterial isolates from horses cannot be interpreted properly.
