SURVIVAL OF FEMALE WILD TURKEYS TRANSPLANTED BEYOND THEIR CURRENT DISTRIBUTION IN MINNESOTA

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2010
: The current distribution of eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) in Minnesota extends well beyond their ancestral range. Severe winter conditions are believed to prevent wild turkeys from persisting in areas beyond their current ...

Movement and Space Use Patterns of the Beale's Eyed Turtle (Sacalia bealei) Suggest Sensitivity to Environmental Changes and Poaching 比氏眼斑龟 (Sacalia bealei) 的活动与空间利用模式揭示其对环境变化及盗猎的敏感性

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Using radiotelemetry, we found that the movement and home range of the endangered Sacalia bealei varied significantly across reproductive classes and seasons, with males exhibiting greater movement than females during wet and mating seasons. The species exhibits strong aquatic dependence, favoring deep pools interspaced among riffle‐pool sequences ...

Drone‐based radiotelemetry and imagery systems provide an advantage over traditional techniques for estimating survival of dependent juveniles

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We used drone‐based radiotelemetry and multispectral imagery to estimate detection and survival probabilities of blue‐winged teal broods in Saskatchewan, Canada. Weekly brood survival probabilities, estimated via Cormack‐Jolly‐Seber models, increased with age and were comparable between drone methods.

Microbiome Dynamics During Translocation of the Critically Endangered Frog Craugastor ranoides

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
A female Craugastor ranoides fitted with an LB‐2X radio transmitter using a silicone waist‐belt harness for post‐translocation monitoring. ABSTRACT Amphibian populations are declining, and species are going extinct due to habitat loss, climate change, and emerging infectious disease, prompting the increasing use of translocations as a conservation tool.

Home range and habitat use by pacas in a montane tropical forest in Bolivia [PDF]

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 2017
We studied the home range and habitat use of paca (Cuniculus paca) in a rural agricultural community in the Alto Beni region, in La Paz department, Bolivia, where game meat is the main source of protein for a large portion of local inhabitants.

Direct evidence implicating the asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA)‐dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 (DDAH1) pathway in cerebrovascular dysfunction and stroke pathogenesis in mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA) is an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), whereas dimethylaminohydrolase 1 (DDAH1) is primarily responsible for its metabolism. However, the roles of DDAH1 in cerebrovascular regulation are poorly understood. Furthermore, despite evidence that elevated ADMA levels are

Spatial organisation of badgers (<em>Meles meles</em>) in a medium-density population in Luxembourg

open access: yesHystrix, the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 2010
<p><strong>Abstract</strong><br /> Any hypothesis aiming to explain the social organisation of Eurasian badgers <em>Meles meles</em> has to consider its wide inter-population variability.

Implantation of Radiotelemetry Transmitters Yielding Data on ECG, Heart Rate, Core Body Temperature and Activity in Free-moving Laboratory Mice

open access: yesJournal of Visualized Experiments, 2011
The laboratory mouse is the animal species of choice for most biomedical research, in both the academic sphere and the pharmaceutical industry. Mice are a manageable size and relatively easy to house.

A systematic review and meta‐analysis of variation in nest predation of ground‐nesting birds

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Predation and communities of predators of ground‐nesting bird nests and fledglings have been studied across multiple groups of ground‐nesting birds, such as waders, waterbirds, gamebirds and passerines, and habitats, but differences and similarities between groups are less studied.

A modified night‐netting technique for recapturing quail

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
Difficulties in recapturing radiomarked birds often prevent wildlife researchers from replacing transmitters and continuing to collect data over long time periods.
