Fifty Years of Bird Ringing Reveal Opposing Seasonal Responses of Migration Timing to Temperature and Rainfall on Hilbre Island

Ecology and Evolution
Understanding how populations respond to environmental variability is crucial for interpreting long‐term monitoring data, especially for migratory species with complex life cycles that are susceptible to changing weather conditions and may show variation

Abundance, trends, and challenges facing mountain goats throughout their North American distribution

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Our survey of states and provinces revealed that 13% of native mountain goat populations increased during the past 10 years, whereas 38% declined. For introduced populations, increases were roughly equal to declines. Rates of change were positively associated with being introduced or pioneering, and negatively associated with heavy snow, and, to a ...

Lost traditions and new pathways: Hunting participation and perceptions among Black HBCU students in the U.S.

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Relevancy Roadmap urges wildlife agencies to engage nontraditional audiences in activities such as hunting, yet little research has examined young Black Americans’ perceptions of and participation in hunting.

Refinement of Poultry Standing in Japan Based on Recent Anthropo-ornithological Perspectives

The Journal of Poultry Science
Poultry meat and eggs are important sources of high-quality animal protein worldwide. However, poultry in Japan has historically been regarded as a symbolic or spiritual entity more than as a food source, as its roles are deeply embedded in Japanese ...

Diet, phenology and body size shape nutrient release by songbirds

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animals can dramatically alter ecosystem structure and function through the cycling and transport of nutrients in their waste. While birds are particularly capable of influencing nutrient cycles due to their high mobility, abundance, metabolism and functional diversity,

Abiotic variables drive different aspects of fish community trait variation and species richness across the continental United States

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Trait distributions provide insight into how niches overlap within a broader trait space. By integrating individual‐level trait observations from different communities, we can explore how facets of trait dimensionality vary across environmental conditions.

Maternal glucocorticoids have persistent effects on offspring social phenotype irrespective of opportunity for social buffering

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study tests whether early‐life maternal association buffers offspring from the effects of prenatal stress in a facultatively social lizard. Despite clear effects of maternal glucocorticoids on growth and social behaviour, social associations did not mitigate these effects, revealing limits to social buffering in this species.
