Technologies for equine welfare and performance monitoring under field conditions – Where do we stand?

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The need for comprehensive equine welfare assessments has become particularly evident amid ongoing debates about the social licence to operate in equestrian sports. During exercise, multiple physiological systems, principally the cardiovascular, respiratory, muscular, thermoregulatory, endocrine, and locomotory systems, undergo complex ...

Wild and Naturalized Hatchery Brown Trout: A Comparison of Movement, Space Use, and Survival in a Large Lake

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most research comparing wild and hatchery‐produced fish focuses on recently stocked individuals. As a result, these studies only investigate the behavior of naive hatchery fish, leaving a knowledge gap regarding long‐term survivors. We compared the movement, space use, and survival of wild and hatchery‐reared brown trout (Salmo trutta) that ...

Wetland location and captive breeding influence trans‐Mediterranean movements in the endangered Marbled Duck (Marmaronetta angustirostris)

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Waterbirds distributed in semi‐arid and arid regions seem to have adapted their behaviour to the availability and seasonality of wetlands, increasing their mobility range. The Marbled Duck Marmaronetta angustirostris is a threatened waterbird that shows trans‐Mediterranean movements but these are poorly known.

Breeding and foraging habitat are important in determining foraging ranges of sympatric generalist species

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
How far animals travel to gather food for offspring or themselves is a central component of ecology. Among birds, the ‘foraging range’ (straight‐line distance between a central place and a destination) is used to assess potential interactions with anthropogenic stressors such as wind farms.
