The welfare and ethics of research involving wild animals: A primer
Wild animals are used in scientific research in a wide variety of contexts both in situ and ex
situ. Guidelines for best practice, where they exist, are not always clearly linked to animal …

Cold spell en route delays spring arrival and decreases apparent survival in a long-distance migratory songbird
Background Adjusting the timing of annual events to gradual changes in environmental
conditions is necessary for population viability. However, adaptations to weather extremes …

Low fitness at low latitudes: Wintering in the tropics increases migratory delays and mortality rates in an Arctic breeding shorebird
Evolutionary theories of seasonal migration generally assume that the costs of longer
migrations are balanced by benefits at the non‐breeding destinations. We tested, and …

Life‐history tradeoffs revealed by seasonal declines in reproductive traits of Arctic‐breeding shorebirds
Seasonal declines in breeding performance are widespread in wild animals, resulting from
temporal changes in environmental conditions or from individual variation. Seasonal …
