Sage‐grouse breeding and late brood‐rearing habitat guidelines in Utah

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019
Delineation, protection, and restoration of habitats provide the basis for endangered and threatened species recovery plans. Species recovery plans typically contain guidelines that provide managers with a scientific basis to designate and manage ...

Influence of transmission line construction on winter sage-grouse habitat use in southern Utah

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
The construction and operation of electric power transmission lines (“power lines”) and their associated infrastructure has been identified as a conservation threat to the greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse).

Little penguins select more isolated nest boxes for breeding, but lay date influences breeding success

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
We determined that more isolated and possibly older nest boxes were selected by little penguins for breeding at Pōhatu/Flea Bay, New Zealand. However, breeding success was influenced by lay date in comparison to nest box characteristics. These findings inform immediate conservation recommendations regarding nest box design and placement.

Putatively Adaptive and Genome‐Wide Genetic Variation Often Rank Populations as Similarly Distinctive

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 15, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Identifying which populations within species to prioritize to maintain genetic diversity is challenging. Due to its direct connection to current patterns of adaptation and presumed connection to adaptive capacity, some researchers advocate prioritizing adaptive variation.

Adult sage‐grouse numbers rise following raven removal or an increase in precipitation

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
Weather and lethal control of common ravens (Corvus corax; hereafter, ravens) can affect the nesting success of greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), but implications of these effects in terms of the subsequent size of the breeding population ...

Effect of Seaweed Fucoidan Incorporated Into Batter on Shelf Life Extension of Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) Nugget During Refrigerated Storage

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
The fucoidan from Sargassum angustifolium incorporated directly in batter (0%, 1%, 2%, and 3% w/w; C, F1, F2, and F3, respectively) of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) nuggets increased some physiochemical properties during the refrigerated storage.

Trends in greater sage‐grouse lek counts relative to existing wind energy development in Wyoming

Wildlife Society Bulletin
Rapid increases in wind energy development globally highlight the need to evaluate how electricity generation may impact wildlife. The greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage‐grouse) has experienced range‐wide population declines,

A mobile tool for capturing greater sage‐grouse

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2018
Capturing greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) using standard approaches can be challenging and inefficient, particularly in areas with relatively small populations and patchy habitat.

Winter habitat use by juvenile greater sage-grouse on Parker Mountain, Utah: implications for sagebrush management

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage-grouse) are entirely dependent on sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) for food and cover during winter.
