Sternum morphology varies among birds and is a function of body mass and order. The area of the sternum is inversely related to the area of the keel suggesting that the increase in bone mass associated with a large keel has been mitigated by a reduction in bone mass of the sternum.

Abstract Introduction Tidal wetland restoration is widely used to recover ecosystem function in modified estuaries, yet uncertainty remains about how quickly wildlife communities respond. Early trajectories are central to evaluating restoration success, guiding adaptive management, and building ecosystem resilience in engineered landscapes. Marsh birds

ABSTRACT In a context of food security of animal consumption and diversification of protein sources, we have studied the risks to contract metazoan parasites through the consumption of ‘gros‐gris’ snails (Cornu aspersum maximum) sampled in 12 French farms.

Impact of Rainfall on Aquatic and Terrestrial Species Monitoring Using Riverine Environmental DNA
Environmental DNA (eDNA) has enabled simultaneous monitoring of aquatic and terrestrial vertebrates, yet the influence of rainfall on detection patterns remains poorly understood. In this study, we sampled river water in the Kiyotake catchment in Japan and compared vertebrate detection patterns under rainfall and non‐rainfall conditions.

Abstract Migratory bird species are under heavy energetic demands following the breeding season. Birds must first complete a pre‐migratory molt and build fat deposits during the postbreeding season for migration. Many birds utilize early successional habitat, consuming fruit resources for energy and using cover provided by vegetation.
