Dispersal in Raptors

, 2018
Dispersal in raptors and their underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown because of the difficulties inherent to track highly mobile and often shy species across large landscapes. Raptors have a number of peculiarities that open new perspectives in the study of dispersal.

The Aging Raptor

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2010
There is little information available in the literature regarding geriatric raptor medicine. Estimating the life span of birds of prey and evaluating factors that influence longevity are continuing to be explored. Identifying disease conditions that arise with advancing age may involve various body systems including the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular,

Raptor Therapeutics

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2000
Developing a therapeutic plan for raptors can be challenging because the veterinarian must take numerous and sometimes conflicting factors into consideration. Successful therapy depends on proper management of the raptor patient, beginning with its initial presentation and continuing throughout its time in captivity. Important considerations concerning

Lethal Infection of Wild Raptors with Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N8 and H5N2 Viruses in the USA, 2014–15

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2019
: An outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) led to heavy losses of poultry in commercial farms in North America in 2014–15. Enhanced surveillance by virologists and pathologists at the US Geological Survey National Wildlife Health Center ...

Synovial Chondromatosis in Raptors

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1999
Fourteen raptors, consisting of 13 great horned owls (Bubo virginianus) and one red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis), from central and north central Minnesota, western Wisconsin, and eastern South Dakota (USA) were admitted to a raptor rehabilitation center between June 1992 and June 1995, with perisynovial and synovial chondromatosis affecting multiple

Raptors and primate evolution

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, 2013
Most scholars agree that avoiding predators is a central concern of lemurs, monkeys, and apes. However, given uncertainties about the frequency with which primates actually become prey, the selective importance of predation in primate evolution continues to be debated.

Cardiac Disease of Raptors

Journal of Avian Medicine and Surgery, 2022
Cardiac disease, in its various presentations, is being recognized as a common raptor health problem. Evidence suggests that the prevalence of cardiac disease varies between captive and wild bird of prey populations, probably because of differences in activity levels and diet.

Care of the Geriatric Raptor

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2020
Despite falconry having been practiced for centuries and with a wealth of published material on the husbandry of captive raptors over that period, there is a paucity of published material on the care of the geriatric raptor. Raptors are often a long-lived species and can suffer a range of age-related conditions that may impact on their welfare.

Raptor Gastroenterology

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2014
Free-living raptors are frequently presented to wildlife rehabilitation centers. Conditions affecting the gastrointestinal tract can be the primary reason for presentation. The gastrointestinal tract can also be affected secondary to debilitation from other injuries or from the stress of the rehabilitation process.

On Raptor Codes

2006 IEEE International Conference on Communications, 2006
We introduce a construction of raptor codes to be used over symmetric channels. An important property of the proposed scheme is that unlike the previous construction of raptor codes, it allows to design codes that are approaching the capacity of the underlying channel in a rate-compatible way.
