Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) diet and prey selection as assessed by the analysis of pellets collected under resting sites (River Ticino, north Italy)

Alessandro Nessi et al.

Summary: Collecting pellets under resting sites is a minimally invasive method to study the diet of the kingfisher Alcedo atthis outside the breeding period. It requires a large number of surveys to find suitable resting sites and obtain sufficient sample size, but allows for a precise estimate of prey frequency and assessment of diet.

Distribution and diet of recovering Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) along the natural-to-urban habitat gradient (river Segura, SE Spain)

Ettore Emanuele Dettori et al.

Summary: In the River Segura catchment in Southeast Spain, ongoing recovery of Eurasian otters and urbanization have led to otters expanding into urban areas for food. Despite high water pollution in urban areas, otters' diet is mainly comprised of red swamp crayfish and fish, with no apparent limitations in food availability. Urbanization and habitat modification may play a major role in shaping otter distribution.
