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.

Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 4, Page 443-454, August 2026.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...
