Wind farms are a clean and efficient source of renewable energy. However, they cause negative impacts on raptors. Here, we present a review of the existing scientific literature on the effects of wind farms on raptors' ecology with a particular interest in the potential solutions. After collecting 216 studies, we found a consensus in the literature...

Simple Summary This study focuses on New World Vultures, a group of seven scavenger bird species with ecological significance. Despite their importance, there is limited knowledge about their evolutionary history and conservation needs. Recent advances in understanding their evolutionary relationships have paved the way for addressing these gaps us...

Simple Summary This study explores the use of biometric analysis to identify the sex of Bonelli’s eagles, a bird species with reverse sexual dimorphism where females are usually larger than males. By using linear discriminant analysis of biometric variables, we were able to obtain equations that accurately distinguished between male and female eagl...

A male red deer was repeatedly observed scavenging in eastern Spain. This is the first time this behaviour of the red deer being recorded by means of camera traps. Scavenging behaviour of herbivores may have implications for wildlife biologists and managers.
