Researchers at Dauphin Island Sea Lab in Alabama conducting a two-year study focusing on the diets of Tiger Sharks in the Gulf of Mexico have made an alarming discovery: not only are these sharks eating the expected fish and other assorted marine organisms, but they’re also eating land-based songbirds!

While we were in a beautiful Air BnB, which was owned by some awesome bird lovers, I personally had not done enough research on the area. Our last stop for this week would be our farthest south, in Rio Claro, and the Golfito area. Once we arrived, we were able to track down a guide who was to take us to the Golfito area the next morning.
I never researched the resort, imagining that it lacked the amenities my family wanted, but visiting for dinner allowed us to rent its grandeur without forking over the considerable room rates. Panama inflicts usurious car insurance policies on visitors, so do your research. Rufescent Tiger-Heron. Neotropic Cormorant.
As she continued her monologue about these cats, the Wildcat cautiously walked in our direction, never taking its eyes off of us, stiff-legged, ears motionless, striped like a standard “tiger” domestic cat but entirely in grays. He also had tigers, cougars, and some other animals. That was one of his cats.
Here are some of the questions that were running through my mind as I read Owls of the Eastern Ice: A Quest to Find and Save the World’s Largest Owl : (a) Is ornithological research always this dangerous? (b) He wanted to do research that would have a conservation impact. Slaght provides funding from research grants.
However most recent research places them amongst the Panthera. This is the genus of the typical large cats including Lion, Leopard, Jaguar and Tiger. In fact genetic evidence indicates that the Snow Leopard’s closest living relative is the Tiger.
A private zoo operator in Taiwan cross-bred lions and tigers, resulting in three "liger" cubs. One died and the other two were seized for sheltering at a research institution. A fine of NT$50,000 is a mere slap on the wrist, " said Lin Tai-jing, an EAST researcher. Tags: zoos taiwan tigers lion endangered species.
With regard to the Grey-backed Thrush , “further research should focus on identification of nest predators, implications of nest exposure and begging calls on nesting success, and breeding habitat requirements at different spatial and temporal scales of Grey-backed Thrush in fragmented landscapes of northeast China.”
campus gardens – the Tropical Agricultural Research and Higher Education Centre, located 3 km east of the town of Turrialba. In a rock-garden in the middle of the river, one Fasciated Tiger-Heron was fishing, with both Amazon and Green Kingfishers nearby.

As an aside, I well remember the time that Binford came to our quaint little department at Harvard to meet with Isaac and his research team (us) to sort out this difference in understanding of human evolution. I did do some research on this topic, working with others.
Chinese researchers have actually been able to identify individual Asian Stubtails on the basis of their songs ( source ). It seems that a lot of ornithological research is based on thinking about what makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint, and then checking whether this actually the case. Most likely, this is a Common Cuckoo.
Forget lions, tigers, and bears – if Internet listicles are to be believed, all of Oz is full of crocodiles, sharks, jellyfish, snakes, spiders – even magpies – that are dead set on killing, maiming, or injuring any humans they encounter.

Uh, not what I’m looking for, but great artwork. My chosen cartoonist? Check out providers thoroughly.
Their goal is simple yet lofty: “We hope these redescriptions will arouse some interest in the chewing lice of shorebirds among researchers working with lapwings” As I mentioned in one of my posts this spring, for me the personal start of the migration season is when I see my first male colorful flycatcher.
of researchers looking for chemical contaminants in the environment. Of course, what is shown here (and in the video ) is a female – kind of typical for this blog. Please state your dismay and disappointment clearly in the comments section. It seems that the Black-crowned Night Heron is kind of the workhorse (workbird?)
