How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Cuban Connection: Regional Role for Florida's Manatees

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
The status of the West Indian manatee [Trichechus manatus (Linnaeus, 1758)] remains enigmatic. The International Union for Conservation of Nature classifies the species as “Vulnerable” and the two subspecies [T. m. manatus (Linnaeus, 1758) and T.

Using Aerial Photogrammetry to Estimate Body Condition and Assess Sexual Dimorphism in Narwhals

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Arctic is warming rapidly, impacting ice‐dependent species and communities that rely on them for resources. Body condition indices (BCI) are widely used to assess individual health within populations. We adapted the methodology to improve accessibility for estimating narwhal body condition from drone footage, using body length, body width,

Malignant Lymphoma in a West Indian Manatee (Trichechus manatus) [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2005
We identified a malignant lymphoma infiltrating the lung, liver, kidney, mesenteric lymph nodes, and eye as the cause of death in a male West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus). Diagnosis was based on gross, histopathologic, and immunohistochemical studies.

Dental Complexity and Crown Relief Document Occlusal Wear Along the Tooth Row in West Indian Manatees

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Sirenians are a lineage of herbivorous marine mammals morphologically specialized for exploiting aquatic vegetation in shallow‐water habitats. In manatees (Trichechus), continuous horizontal tooth replacement may represent a solution for mitigating heavy dental wear incurred by a diet of abrasive plant material.

Development and Validation of Girth‐, Volume‐, and Mass‐Based Body Condition Indices for Free‐Swimming Dugongs, via Drone Photogrammetry

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Drone photogrammetry provides a minimally invasive morphometric tool to assess growth and energy reserve in marine mammals. Converting drone‐derived measurements (e.g., body width) into body condition indices (BCIs, residuals from expected body girth, volume, or mass) requires prior knowledge of normative body shape. We developed and validated

Is the Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus) back in town? Presence of the species at the “Área de Protección de Flora y Fauna Yum Balam”, Quintana Roo, Mexico

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2017
The Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus), considered endangered, is protected at national (Mexico) and international levels. Since Hurricane Gilbert in 1988, sightings of manatees have been rare at Conil Lagoon, located within the natural ...
