Phenology of migrating game birds in Italy based on citizen science data

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Studying the timing of the seasonal movements of migratory birds, known as migration phenology, is crucial for managing and conserving migratory bird populations. This is particularly important for migratory game bird populations in Europe because, according to the EU, migratory birds should not be hunted during their breeding season or during return ...

Contrasting elevation‐dependent effect of snow cover on nest‐box use in a cold‐adapted alpine specialist, the white‐winged snowfinch Montifringilla nivalis

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Snow cover plays a critical role for many alpine animals, but our understanding of how snow effects vary with elevation is limited. The white‐winged snowfinch is restricted to high‐elevation habitats, relying on snowfields, edges of melting snow patches, and short‐sward alpine grasslands to collect invertebrates for nestlings.

Energetic and oxidative costs of microfilarial infection: evidence for fitness trade‐offs in male village weavers of the Amurum Forest Reserve

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Microfilariae contribute to a higher energetic demand that could lead to oxidative damage and reduce hosts' fitness. Yet reports about the energy status and oxidative stress‐defense mechanisms of infected wild birds are rarely documented. We investigated the relationship between microfilariae and the energy status and oxidative damage‐defense ...

Effects of grassland fragmentation and precipitation on secretarybird Sagittarius serpentarius reproduction in the Serengeti ecosystem

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Accurate demographic data are essential for understanding population dynamics and developing effective conservation strategies for threatened raptor species. This study provides the first quantitative assessment of how grassland fragmentation at landscape scale, driven by woody plant encroachment, and interannual variation in precipitation affect the ...
