The European honey buzzard (Pernis apivorus) as an ally for the control of the invasive yellow-legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax). [PDF]

open access: yesPest Manag Sci
The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

Large-scale variations of raptor communities in urban green spaces of neotropical cities

open access: yesPerspectives in Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Urban areas are expanding continuously inducing changes in raptor communities. However, our knowledge about urbanization impacts on raptor communities at continental scales is scarce.

Spring raptor migration over the Aeolian Archipelago

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Ornitologia - Research in Ornithology, 2012
Spring raptor migration observations were performed from the island of Panarea in the period 20/4-20/5 of the years 2004, 2005 and 2006. The highest numbers were recorded for the Honey Buzzard, but also other species such as Marsh Harrier, Black Kite and

The role of Raptor in lymphocytes differentiation and function

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Raptor, a key component of mTORC1, is required for recruiting substrates to mTORC1 and contributing to its subcellular localization. Raptor has a highly conserved N-terminus domain and seven WD40 repeats, which interact with mTOR and other mTORC1-related

Flight feather moult in Western Marsh Harriers during autumn migration

open access: yesAvian Research, 2019
Background Most of long-distance migratory raptors suspend moult during migration but detailed information is patchy for most of the Palearctic species.

Game bird carcasses are less persistent than raptor carcasses, but can predict raptor persistence dynamics.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Researchers conduct post-construction fatality monitoring (PCFM) to determine a wind energy facility's direct impacts on wildlife. Results of PCFM can be used to evaluate compliance with permitted take, potentially triggering adaptive management measures

Olfaction in raptors [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2019
AbstractRaptors from the orders Accipitriformes and Falconiformes have been considered to rely principally on vision. Historically, this assumption has led scientists to discount any possible sense of smell in these birds, until work on cathartid vultures indicated that these species at least rely on olfaction to find carrion.
