Bird electrocution on power lines: Spatial gaps and identification of driving factors at global scales

Francisco Guil et al.

Summary: The study revealed that bird electrocution on power lines is a global issue, with a focus on developed countries like Europe and North America. Socio-economic factors play a major role in influencing bird and raptor electrocution rates, while climate-related factors are most influential for eagles. There is a lack of systematic studies in regions like Oceania, South America, and Africa, highlighting the need for more research in these areas to address biodiversity risks.

Niche segregation on the landscape scale of two co-existing related congeners in the sympatric zone - modelling approach

Jakub Z. Kosicki

Summary: This study examines niche divergence and interspecific competition in the spatial distribution of sister species within a sympatric zone in Poland, showing how different habitat preferences can lead to co-existence of related congeners due to ecological mechanisms.

'Animals under wheels': Wildlife roadkill data collection by citizen scientists as a part of their nature recording activities

Kristijn R. R. Swinnen et al.

Summary: 'Animals under wheels' is a citizen science project that collected nearly 90,000 roadkill records from Flanders, Belgium between 2008 and 2020. The project utilized various platforms and apps, involving a large number of volunteers who achieved a high accuracy rate in species identification. The study found that monitoring speed affected the encounter rates and composition of roadkill species, while COVID-19 restrictions had an impact on the seasonal patterns of some species. The data also indicated that roadkill records did not increase, suggesting mitigation measures and declining population densities as possible factors.

Prey-Base Does Not Influence Breeding Success in Eagle Owls (Bubo bubo) in Judea, Israel

Ezra Hadad et al.

Summary: This study investigated the diet and breeding success of Eagle Owls in the Judea region of Israel. The results showed that the prey-base of Eagle Owls consisted mainly of mammals and birds, with variations in species diversity along a west-east gradient. The adaptations of the Eagle Owls as generalist foragers and potential species-specific specialists were highlighted. This study provides insights into the importance of dietary habits in the survival of Eagle Owls.

Importance of Mesohabitat for Nest-Site Selection in Breeding Eagle Owls (Bubo bubo): A Multi-Scale Model

Ezra Hadad et al.

Summary: Apex predators like eagle owls are excellent bioindicators of habitat quality and anthropogenic changes. In Israel, the breeding population of eagle owls is limited by the availability of high-quality nest locations, such as quarries and caves. Increasing the number of nest sites and reclaiming abandoned quarries could potentially help increase the eagle owl population in a sustainable manner.

Why link diverse citizen science surveys? Widespread arboreal habits of a terrestrial amphibian revealed by mammalian tree surveys in Britain

Silviu O. Petrovan et al.

Summary: Research indicates that amphibians in England and Wales commonly exhibit arboreal behavior, with common toads being found in hazel dormouse nest boxes, tree cavities, and even bird nests. However, there are fewer records of frogs or newts engaging in similar behavior.

Mortality of grassland birds increases with transmission lines

Caroline J. Martin et al.

Summary: Electrical transmission line development has led to an increase in avian collisions, with the majority of mortalities attributed to collisions with overhead shield wires. Linear disturbances, such as transmission lines and roads, contribute to significant bird mortality, highlighting the need for mitigation measures.
