Tri-axial accelerometry shows differences in energy expenditure and parental effort throughout the breeding season in long-lived raptors

Pascual Lopez-Lopez et al.

Summary: Cutting-edge technologies were used to monitor 25 Bonelli's eagles during the breeding season, revealing roles and differences in parental care between sexes and substantial increase in energetic requirements of males. The study highlights the crucial role of males in raptor species exhibiting biparental care.

Long-term monitoring program reveals a mismatch between spatial distribution and reproductive success in an endangered raptor species in the Mediterranean area

Beatriz Martinez-Miranzo et al.

Summary: Understanding the ecological processes behind population dynamics is crucial for identifying threats and assessing viability. In this study, we investigated the reproductive success of an endangered raptor in relation to its ecological niche and spatial distribution. Our results showed that biotic factors were more associated with spatial distribution, while abiotic factors were linked to reproductive success. Interestingly, there was a mismatch between spatial suitability and reproductive success. This study highlights the importance of considering both large-scale spatial distribution patterns and fitness measures in conservation programs for endangered species.

Fifteen days are enough to estimate home-range size in some long-lived resident eagles

Sara Morollon et al.

Summary: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that between 2200 and 2800 fixes are sufficient to define the territory of two long-lived resident raptors marked by GPS transmitters. This finding is valuable for movement ecology studies lacking long-term GPS data series.

Potential negative effects of the installation of video surveillance cameras in raptors' nests

Pascual Lopez-Lopez

Summary: Video surveillance cameras installed on birds' nests are a cost-effective tool to study ecology and behavior. However, their inappropriate use may have negative effects on bird reproduction.

Cryptic population decrease due to invasive species predation in a long-lived seabird supports need for eradication

Steffen Oppel et al.

Summary: Invasive species are causing significant biodiversity loss globally, and removing them from islands is an effective management strategy. However, uncertainty over the impacts of invasive species and their eradication can hinder investment in eradication efforts. This study focuses on the Tristan albatross, a long-lived bird species threatened by invasive species on land and industrial fisheries at sea. The research shows that eradicating invasive mice on the breeding site of Tristan albatrosses could significantly increase their population, emphasizing the importance of invasive species control to prevent population decline.

Home-Range Size and Space Use of Territorial Bonelli's Eagles (Aquila fasciata) Tracked by High-Resolution GPS/GSM Telemetry

Sara Morollon et al.

Summary: High-resolution GPS/GSM dataloggers provide high-quality spatial information that improves our understanding of home-range behavior and spatial ecology. This paper examines the home-range size and the influence of sex, season, and breeding status on the space use of Bonelli's eagle using high-resolution GPS/GSM dataloggers. The study finds that home-range size is similar among individuals occupying the same territory, primarily due to cooperative hunting behavior. Females have slightly smaller home ranges, likely due to reduced activity during the breeding season. There is low neighbor overlap, indicating high intraspecific competition among Bonelli's eagles.

Weather conditions explain reproductive success and advancement of the breeding season in Western Capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus)

Joy Coppes et al.

Summary: Research shows that weather conditions play a crucial role in the reproductive success of Western Capercaillie, with warm weather benefiting reproduction success and precipitation negatively impacting brood size. Variations in weather conditions also affect the ratio of female to male chicks in broods.

Population genomics for wildlife conservation and management

Paul A. Hohenlohe et al.

Summary: Biodiversity is threatened globally, and population genomics has emerged as a valuable tool for wildlife conservation. By providing precise estimates of population features and identifying genetic variants, genomics can help assess populations' ability to adapt to environmental changes and enhance conservation efforts.
