Does conservation status predict research output?

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract The Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 uses the best available science to protect threatened and endangered species, but limited knowledge of listed species can undermine conservation success. This study examined whether ESA‐listed species receive more peer‐reviewed publications than ecologically similar non‐listed species.

Using value of information in recovery planning for imperiled species

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conservation planning often employs predictive models to prioritize alternative actions, but uncertainty related to lack of data or uncertainty in the influence of global change may erode confidence in predictions. Managers must choose between investing time and money to gather more information, or implementing conservation actions immediately, despite

An update on hatchery success of olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) at Playa San Miguel, Costa Rica

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study aims to elucidate and update the impacts of nest temperatures and rainfall on the San Miguel olive ridley hatchery success from 2019 to 2022 sea turtle seasons. Nest sand temperatures significantly affect nest failures (Estimate = 0.123 ± 0.059 SE, z = 2.088, p = .037) while nesting seasons also significantly affect nest failures with lower ...

Boldness Predicts Nest‐Site Choice of a Freshwater Turtle in an Anthropogenically Disturbed Landscape

Ethology, EarlyView.
One measure of antipredator behavioral boldness predicted turtle nest distance to the nearest human‐made structure. Turtles experienced two behavioral assays to quantify boldness (left panel). Turtles that displayed more bold behaviors during simulated predation nested closer to human‐made structures (top right) than their shyer counterparts (bottom ...
