Ultrasound-Guided Femoral and Sciatic Nerve Blocks for Repair of Tibia and Fibula Fractures in a Bennett's Wallaby (Macropus rufogriseus) [PDF]

, 2016
Locoregional anesthetic techniques may be a very useful tool for the anesthetic management of wallabies with injuries of the pelvic limbs and may help to prevent capture myopathies resulting from stress and systemic opioids’ administration.

Non‐brooding northern bobwhite resource selection during breeding season in a managed longleaf pine ecosystem

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Investigating resource selection patterns of declining species is critical to developing effective conservation strategies and mitigating negative population trends. We trapped and radio‐collared northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus and recorded the location of each individual three times per week during the northern bobwhite breeding season (April ...

When and where does mortality occur in migratory birds? Direct evidence from long-term satellite tracking of raptors.

Journal of Animal Ecology, 2014
Information about when and where animals die is important to understand population regulation. In migratory animals, mortality might occur not only during the stationary periods (e.g. breeding and wintering) but also during the migration seasons. However,

Molecular characterization of Trichomonas gallinae isolates recovered from the Canadian Maritime provinces’ wild avifauna reveals the presence of the genotype responsible for the European finch trichomonosis epidemic and additional strains [PDF]

, 2015
Finch trichomonosis, caused by Trichomonas gallinae, emerged in the Canadian Maritime provinces in 2007 and has since caused ongoing mortality in regional purple finch (Carpodacus purpureus) and American goldfinch (Carduelis tristis) populations ...

A global review of the conservation status of true quails (Families Odontophoridae and Phasianidae)

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding the conservation status of species is imperative to stem global declines. To better inform conservation, we summarized the global conservation status of New World (Family Odontophoridae) and Old World (Family Phasianidae) true quail species.

Fecal corticosterone metabolite levels in two closely related rodent species in a sub‐Mediterranean environment

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Glucocorticoids regulate many physiological functions and play an important role in coping with challenging stimuli. The non‐invasive assessment of glucocorticoids is increasingly used as a tool to evaluate individual and population health status in wild animals.

Visual abilities in two raptors with different ecology

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2016
Differences in visual capabilities are known to reflect differences in foraging behaviour even among closely related species. Among birds, the foraging of diurnal raptors is assumed to be guided mainly by vision but their foraging tactics include both ...
