Evaluating Thiram‐Induced Embryotoxicity Using Integrated In Silico, In Vitro, and Transcriptomic Approaches

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term exposure to low‐dose food contact materials (FCMs) has raised concerns regarding developmental toxicity. In the present study, we prioritized FCMs with potential developmental toxicity using a weight‐of‐evidence computational model, which predicted 127 chemicals to be of high concern.

Experimental Evidence for Mobilization of Mercury From the Eggshell by the Developing Embryo in an Avian Model Organism

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the many pollutants wildlife is exposed to, mercury ranks among the most toxic. In birds, mercury does not only accumulate within generations, but also is transferred across generations via maternal offloading in eggs, with higher mercury concentrations found in shells of unhatched eggs.

Using programmable infusion pump in avian species – a validation methodology in geese

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife face anthropogenic and natural stressors that affect their physiology and behaviour. The activity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and glucocorticoid (GC) production is intrinsically linked with energy regulation and environmental stressors.

Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

Interannual dynamic resource selection patterns of the northern bobwhite in a region with poor edaphic conditions

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding an organism's shifting resource needs throughout its life cycle is crucial for developing effective conservation strategies. Northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus populations have been declining for nearly a century due largely to habitat loss/degradation.

Understanding thermal conditions provides context for the influence of habitat characteristics on gamebird winter ecology

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The fundamental niche of an organism is regulated partially by its ability to cope with a range of thermal environments, which can be directly influenced by management across spatial scales and seasons. However, despite winter weather being a major source of mortality for many species in northern latitudes, the impact of thermal conditions on wintering

Detection‐Dog‐Guided Camera Placement Increases Efficiency of Surveys for Long‐Tailed Weasels (Neogale frenata) 利用探测犬引导布设相机可提升长尾鼬调查效率

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
By comparing widespread surveys with randomly placed cameras to a protocol pairing detection dogs with cameras, we found that the detection‐dog‐guided camera survey had approximately 33 times greater detections with fewer camera nights and reduced survey costs. We recommend using detection dogs to identify areas to focus camera trapping. ABSTRACT Multi‐
