There is increasing evidence for impacts of light pollution on the physiology and behaviour
of wild animals. Nocturnally active Procellariiform seabirds are often found grounded in …

The fundamental change in nocturnal landscapes due to the increasing use of artificial light
at night (ALAN) is recognized as being detrimental to the environment and raises important …

Vertebrate animals can be injured or threatened with injury through human activities, thus
warranting their “rescue.” Details of wildlife rescue, rehabilitation, release, and associated …
