Factors Related to Shell Deaths During Artificial Incubation of Ostrich Eggs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The ostrich industry experiences a high rate of embryonic mortalities during artificial incubation of eggs. Embryonic deaths were studied from data recorded on 37 740 fertile eggs incubated artificially during the 1998–2005 breeding seasons.

Risk posed by the HPAI virus H5N1, Eurasian lineage goose/Guangdong clade 2.3.4.4b. genotype B3.13, currently circulating in the US

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1), clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13 in U.S. dairy cattle marks a significant shift in the virus' host range and epidemiological profile. Infected cattle typically exhibit mild clinical signs, such as reduced milk production, mastitis and fever, with morbidity generally below 20% and

Range‐Wide Camera Trapping for the Australian Cassowary Reveals Habitat Associations With Rainfall and Forest Quality

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
We conducted large‐scale camera trapping across the Australian range of the southern cassowary and quantified habitat associations. Cassowary relative abundance peaked in intact rainforest areas with comparatively less rainfall, but also showed weak avoidance of humans.

The Effect of Chitosan Edible Coating Containing Nanoemulsion of Eryngium campestre Essential Oil on the Quality of Ostrich Meat During Storage in Refrigerator

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2025.
Ostrich meat samples coated with chitosan containing nanoemulsion of Eryngium campestre essential oil had lower free fatty acid, peroxide value, and total volatile bases and also lower microbial count. Chitosan coatings incorporated with 2.5% and 5% nanoemulsion of Eryngium campestre essential oil decreased the drip loss and increased the texture ...

FACTORS AFFECTING PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY IN A NEW ALTERNATIVE ENTERPRISE: THE CASE OF THE RATITE INDUSTRY [PDF]

open access: yes
Technical efficiency measures are calculated for ratite producers using data envelopment analysis. Regression analysis is then used to determine producer characteristics that are likely to lead to higher technical efficiencies.

Molecular evidence for gender differences in the migratory behaviour of a small seabird [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Molecular sexing revealed an unexpectedly strong female bias in the sex ratio of pre-breeding European Storm Petrels (Hydrobates pelagicus), attracted to playback of conspecific calls during their northwards migration past SW Europe.
