Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Amphibians are the most threatened vertebrate class globally. Climate change, agrochemicals, and/or pathogens and parasites are implicated in contributing to amphibian declines, either singly or in combination. We investigated individual and combined effects of elevated temperatures and atrazine (2.0 μg/L) on Lithobates [formerly Rana] pipiens

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fungal pathogens pose a growing threat to vertebrate biodiversity. In snakes, Ophidiomyces ophidiicola (Oo) has garnered particular concern, although its impact in Europe remains poorly understood. We conducted a season‐long, standardized survey of dice snakes (Natrix tessellata) along the northern shore of Lake Como (Italy) to quantify Oo and

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Depletion of dissolved oxygen (DO; hypoxia) and its influence on sensitive fauna and vulnerable life stages is an emerging concern in lotic freshwater ecosystems. A species particularly vulnerable to hypoxia is the Eastern Hellbender—a large‐bodied, fully aquatic salamander which relies on cutaneous respiration and has evolved to thrive in ...

Predicting long‐term population viability for an imperiled salamander under future climate changes
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We evaluated the long‐term viability of 2 reticulated flatwoods salamander (Ambystoma bishopi) populations in response to multiple future climate change scenarios. We found that there is a high probability of extinction by 2100 under some scenarios, mostly driven by severe droughts and repeated reproductive failure. Conservation actions should focus on

Analysis of dedicated revenue scale and diversity among U.S. state fish and wildlife agencies
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Most revenue for state fish and wildlife agencies originates from 3 sources: 1) hunting, fishing, and trapping licenses; 2) Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Grants; and 3) Federal Aid in Sportfish Restoration Grants. However, states also generate substantial revenue through 22 additional unique mechanisms, ranging from sales taxes to license plate ...
