Challenges of Monitoring Endangered Bryde's Whales During a Period of Rapid Environmental Change

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Estimating population size is challenging for rare and elusive species that occur at low densities and are difficult to detect during sampling. We estimated the abundance of a Nationally critical whale species—Aotearoa New Zealand Bryde's whales—using a custom‐formulated POPAN model which incorporated transience to account for their complex residency ...

No escape from microplastics: Contamination of reef manta ray feeding areas in a remote, protected archipelago

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We found microplastic contamination of the upper water column around the Chagos Archipelago, a remote, protected archipelago in the central Indian Ocean. Key aggregation areas for reef manta rays (Mobula alfredi) were contaminated, putting them at risk of microplastic ingestion.
