Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Wheat Wild Relatives and Modern Cultivars Differ for Salt Resistance in Terms of Morpho‐Physiological Traits

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Wheat wild relatives are untapped genetic resources from salinity and drought hit areas. This study presents differential comparative morphophysiological responses of these species and modern wheat cultivars under saline conditions. Salt resistant species produce more shoot and root biomass under saline conditions through salt exclusion and/or tissue ...

The art of avoidance: bedsite use, antipredator strategies, and predation risk in white‐tailed deer fawns

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Horizontal visibility, rather than concealment cover, drove fawn bedsite use and predation risk. Greater field of view decreased the odds of coyote predation, likely by facilitated by early detection. As fawns transitioned from hiders to followers, they shifted from using dense overstory concealment to more open overstory that favored improved escape ...

Can't outrun recurrence: Long‐term outcomes of treating American black bear sarcoptic mange

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Abstract The growing incidence of sarcoptic mange in American black bears (Ursus americanus) has become a concern for wildlife managers in the eastern United States. Inconsistency in the use of single and multi‐dose treatment approaches makes it difficult to evaluate their effects on post‐release outcomes of mange‐rehabilitated bears, which remain ...

Seabird population responses after the removal of an introduced predator

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We studied the response of a breeding population of seabirds (pigeon guillemots) to the removal of an introduced population of predators (American mink) from an archipelago that was formerly the largest aggregation of nesting guillemots in Prince William Sound, Alaska.
