Micro‐habitat selection by boreal woodland caribou improves access to food

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Bio‐logging sensors attached to radiotelemetry receivers have great potential to transform our understanding of the ecological, physiological, and energetic constraints that shape patterns of wildlife movement under field conditions. We used video camera collars to assess microhabitat selectivity by woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus in boreal forests ...

Nests in trees are as good as or better than cliffs for two formerly persecuted, primarily cliff nesting eagles in Spain: a cautionary tale in defining the habitat of range‐restricted or threatened species

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In the late‐20th century, golden and Bonelli's eagles suffered population declines on the Iberian Peninsula, partly due to human persecution. Habitat assessments – especially for Bonelli's eagles – always found or assumed strong associations with cliffs that provided nesting sites.

Forty years of captive breeding in Przewalski's horse: pedigree‐based insights into population growth, sex ratio, and inbreeding

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Long‐term captive breeding programs play a critical role in the conservation and reintroduction of endangered species, yet they face persistent challenges related to demographic structure and genetic management. The Przewalski's horse Equus przewalskii, once extinct in the wild, represents a global model for conservation breeding supported by pedigree ...

Feathers and flu: identifying data gaps in avian influenza host dynamics to prioritize wildlife conservation Plumas y gripe: identificación de datos faltantes en la dinámica de hospedadores de la influenza aviar para priorizar la conservación de la vida silvestre

Wildlife Monographs, EarlyView.
We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.

Behavioral Patterns of Zoo‐housed Lowland (Tapirus terrestris) and Malayan tapirs (Tapirus indicus), With a Focus on Sleeping Behavior

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
A behavioral study of the nocturnal activity budget and rhythmicity reveals the relationship between lying cycle (LC) duration and time spent in the REM‐sleep posture (“lying – head down”, LHD) in zoo‐housed Lowland tapirs (Tapirus terrestris) and Malayan tapirs (Tapirus indicus). ABSTRACT To ensure and optimize husbandry conditions, zoo management and
