Small mammal survey tools are needed at airports to help inform aircraft strike‐risk management. We evaluated thermal optics and tracking tunnels as small mammal survey tools. We conclude that thermal optics would not be a viable survey tool for mouse‐sized mammals (19‐41 g) at airfields and other thick grass habitats unless grass height was maintained

Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) prefer inoculated peanuts over whole‐kernel corn in cafeteria‐style study
In this study, we explored bait preference of wild pigs (Sus scrofa), a highly invasive species where primary removal efforts include the use of bait and corral‐style trapping. In addition, we investigated preferences of a common nontarget to identify a bait that is preferred by wild pigs and not by white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus).

Accuracy of wildlife observations identified by citizen scientists in Florida
Citizen scientists varied widely in their ability to identify wildlife, with bird identifications substantially more accurate than those of snakes, mustelids, and panthers. Despite frequent misidentifications, public observations generated more confirmed records than professional biologists, demonstrating the value of their involvement. Quality‐control
