Corticosterone and Mitochondrial Efficiency Are Associated With Changes in DNA Oxidative Damage During an Acute Stress Response in Leach's Storm‐Petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ability of organisms to effectively respond to challenges is critical for survival. We investigated how an acute stressor affected corticosterone, mitochondrial function, and DNA oxidative damage in a wild population of Leach's storm‐petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous).

Social composition of soft‐release groups is correlated with survival of translocated gopher tortoises

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Gopher tortoises (Gopherus polyphemus) are often translocated into soft‐release enclosures with individuals from many other source sites. In a long‐term study of marked, translocated, adults and subadults, we found that survival in high‐density enclosures was higher for individuals with a greater number of potentially familiar individuals co ...

Carnivore resource subsidies to support predator reintroductions and mitigate threats to reintroduced prey

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Supplementary feeding of reintroduced carnivores is a tool that may increase translocation success and ease predation pressure on prey populations at critical times. In this study, we monitored the activity of native prey, and the activity and diet of a reintroduced predator, the western quoll (Dasyurus geoffroii), around carcass feeding stations in an
