An evaluation of translocation as a tool to reduce burrowing owl collisions at airports

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2023
Bird strikes at airports pose a human‐wildlife conflict (HWC) present in the world's major cities. Conflict mitigation frequently encompasses translocation, but its effectiveness in resolving HWCs is unclear.

Methods of amphibian tracking

open access: yesБіологічні студії, 2020
Introduction: In this article, we present a literature review of modern, most common, and useful methods of amphibian tracking. Amphibians are the most sensitive group of animals and near 41 % of species are under the risk of extinction.

Home Range of the Caspian Whipsnake Dolichophis caspius (Gmelin, 1789) in a Threatened Peri-Urban Population

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Semi-natural environments within cities can provide habitats for vulnerable reptile species. Better understanding of their habitat use and home range sizes is important for their conservation.

Deletion of Orphan G Protein-Coupled Receptor GPR37L1 in Mice Alters Cardiovascular Homeostasis in a Sex-Specific Manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
GPR37L1 is a family A orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) with a putative role in blood pressure regulation and cardioprotection. In mice, genetic ablation of Gpr37l1 causes sex-dependent effects; female mice lacking Gpr37l1 (GPR37L1−/−) have a ...

A comparison of ultrasonic detectors and radiotelemetry for studying bat–habitat relationships

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2011
Ultrasonic bat detectors and radiotelemetry are 2 methods used to examine habitat selection for bats, but no one has empirically examined if conclusions drawn from these 2 methods are comparable and, although previous work has presented concerns ...

SURVIVAL AND CAUSE‐SPECIFIC MORTALITY OF MERRIAM'S TURKEYS IN THE SOUTHERN BLACK HILLS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2005
: Merriam's turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo merriami) in the Black Hills feed in ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) forest habitats during winter, but some birds centralize winter activities within or near farmsteads that provide waste grain as supplemental ...

Radiomarking brood‐rearing mallard females: Implications for juvenile survival

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
Radiotelemetry is frequently used to measure habitat use, movements, and survival in birds; presumably, outfitting adult females with radiotransmitters does not influence juvenile survival, but this critical assumption is rarely tested.

Recent Trends in Survival and Mortality of Wolves in Minnesota, United States

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Survival is a key determinant of population growth and persistence; computation and understanding of this metric is key to successful population management, especially for recovering populations of large carnivores such as wolves.
