As cases聽creep upward of a rare disease that spreads to humans from wild canines and dogs, medical experts say it's important to get a聽better understanding of its incidence across the country.

Alveolar echinococcosis聽(AE) is聽an infection caused by the parasite聽Echinococcus multilocularis, which is carried by coyotes, dogs and foxes. The tapeworm common in Europe was first detected in wildlife in Western Canada in 2012; one year later, the first human case of AE was found in a woman in rural Alberta.

Sollio Agriculture has partnered with 看片视频 University to test the benefits of PurYield, a new coated fertilizer which enhances nutrient uptake by plants. Researchers will compare it to commonly used uncoated urea fertilizer to assess its impact on corn grain growth, yield, and quality, as well as greenhouse gas emissions. Previous trials showed a 30% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The new study aims to validate these environmental benefits over five years, with funding from Sollio and a grant from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. 聽

The number of American kestrels has dropped sharply. That goes against the trend for birds of prey, broadly seen as a conservation bright spot.

Hypotheses about the decline abound.聽In a newly published special issue on kestrels in The Journal of Raptor Research, Dr. Smallwood and David Bird, an emeritus professor of wildlife biology at 看片视频 University in Montreal, list seven possible factors for kestrel declines that they argue merit more research, in no particular order.

Scientists have been worried about the potential harms of microplastics for years. These small plastic particles less than 5 mm in length have been found everywhere because of plastic pollution 鈥 from the Earth鈥檚 deep oceans to remote regions in Antarctica, and even the seafood we eat. But, are microplastics really harmful?

Scientists are studying the diets of the oceans鈥 top predators as they change in response to their environments. This is because how much and what they eat can affect how ecosystems function.

And while researchers know that killer whales, also known as orcas, are the oceans鈥 apex predators, our understanding of their diet 鈥 particularly the quantity of each species they consume 鈥 remains incomplete. This is especially true for remote populations that cannot be observed year-round.
