Site Fidelity is Associated with Food Provisioning and Salmonella in an Urban Wading Bird
Screening wild and semi‐free ranging great apes for putative sexually transmitted diseases: Evidence of Trichomonadidae infections
First published: 26 June 2015 DOI: 10.1002/ajp.22442 In Rushmore et al., there was an error that affected the phylogenetic analysis presented in Figure 2. Below is a corrected version of Figure 2, which includes sequences from fecal and urine samples obtained from chimpanzees in our study and other related parasites (with Genbank accession numbers). Full-length (250 ±1 nt) Illumina reads from fecal samples were paired by name and merged using Gen…
Screening wild and semi‐free ranging great apes for putative sexually transmitted diseases: Evidence of Trichomonadidae infections
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) can persist endemically, are known to cause sterility and infant mortality in humans, and could have similar impacts in wildlife populations. African apes (i.e., chimpanzees, bonobos, and to a lesser extent gorillas) show multi-male mating behavior that could offer opportunities for STD transmission, yet little is known about the prevalence and impact of STDs in this endangered primate group. We used serology …
Do Shade-Grown Coffee Plantations Pose a Disease Risk for Wild Birds
Shade-grown coffee plantations are often promoted as a conservation strategy for wild birds. However, these agro-ecosystems are actively managed for food production, which may alter bird behaviors or interactions that could change bird health, compared to natural forest. To examine whether there is a difference between the health parameters of wild birds inhabiting shade-grown coffee plantations and natural forest, we evaluated birds in Costa Ric…
High Occupancy of Stream Salamanders Despite High Ranavirus Prevalence in a Southern Appalachians Watershed
New Findings from an Old Pathogen: Intraerythrocytic Bacteria (Family Anaplasmatacea) in Red-Backed Salamanders Plethodon cinereus
Field Anesthesia and Health Assessment of Free-ranging Cebus capucinus in Panama
Health and disease are critical factors for understanding primate evolution and for developing effective conservation and management strategies. However, comprehensive health assessments of wild primate populations are rare, in part because of the difficulty and risk of chemically immobilizing subjects to obtain the necessary biological samples. We report here the results of a health assessment, as well as the methods and drug dosages used to cap…
