  • AN EVALUATION of TECHNIQUES for CAPTURING RAPTORS in EAST-CENTRAL MINNESOTA by Mark R
    AN EVALUATION OF TECHNIQUES FOR CAPTURING RAPTORS IN EAST-CENTRAL MINNESOTA by Mark R. Fuller and Glenn S. Christenson Department of Ecologyand BehavioralBiology University of Minnesota 310 Biological SciencesCenter St. Paul, Minnesota 55108 ABSTRACT. To meet the objectivesof a study,several species of raptorshad to be trapped on a 9,880-hectare study area of heterogenoushabitat types. Bal-chatri,mist net, Swedish Goshawk,and automatic bow-net traps (and combinationsof these traps) were used in severalgeneral habitat situations.Mist nets combined with a baited bal-chatri or tethered bait were most successfulin capturingbirds, and the bal-chatrisalone and mist nets alone were next most effective. Trappingwas found to be most productivein deciduousupland habitats where an openingin the canopy or break in the understoryoccurred. Trapping along a woodlot-fieldedge was also effective. Strigiformeswere most often trappedjust before sunriseor just after sunset,while falconiformeswere most often capturedin the late morning and late afternoon. Trapping was least efficient from Decemberto February. A different trap type from that i•sedin the initial captureis often most effectivefor recaptur- ing raptors.Maintenance of healthybait animalsand frequent trap checksare emphasized. Introduction This paperpresents results from a combinationof methodsused to captureand recapture Great HornedOwls (Bubo virginianus), Barred Owls (Strix varia),Red-tailed Hawks (Buteo }amaicensis),and Broad-wingedHawks (Buteo platypterus) on a 9,880-hectarestudy area in east-central

  • Chapter 3. Capture and Marking
    CHAPTER 3. CAPTURE AND MARKING A. Overview Scientific studies of birds often require that birds be captured to gather morphometric data and to collect samples for pathological, genetic, and biogeochemical analysis. These data and samples can be used to understand evolutionary relationships, genetics, population structure and dynamics, comparative anatomy and physiology, adaptation, behavior, parasites and diseases, geographic distributions, migration, and the general ecology of wild populations of birds. This knowledge informs us about avian biology and natural history and is necessary to effect science-based conservation and management policies for game and non-game species, endangered species, economically important species, and bird habitat conservation (White and Garrott 1990). Capture is generally necessary to mark birds, which allows scientists to investigate demography, migration/movement patterns, or identify specific individuals after release (Day et al. 1980). Many techniques have been developed to capture and mark birds (Nietfeld et al. 1994; Bub 1995). The assumption that marking does not affect the birds is critical because it is the basis for generalizing the data to unmarked birds (Murray and Fuller 2000). The purpose of this section is not to describe capture and marking techniques, but instead to discuss the effects that different capture and marking techniques have on a bird’s short- and long-term physiological well-being and survival. The more commonly used methods are covered and described briefly, but the focus is on the potential impacts of the method. Thus, even if a particular method is not covered, the researcher is alerted to concerns that may arise and questions to be considered in refining methods so as to reduce impacts.

Kirsher In the flat agricultural lands around Sacramento, California where in prlml- tive times Cliff swallows (petrochelidon p;trrhonota) must have been hard put to find nesting sites, today there are man-made structures that admirably fill the bird's needs for sheltered, elevated purchases for their mud nests. The species now populates the valley abundantly. Colonies are often found in culverts and under small bridges, some no higher than a man's head. In these, by working at night when all the birds are at the nest, practically the whole colony can be trapped by simultaneously closing both openings of the structure with large fish nets. Most of the m,allows flush at the first disturbance, fluttering to the nets where they are easily captured by hand. There are always a few reluctant ones that have to be flushed by shining a bright light (which the bander wears on his forehead) into the nest as he claps his hands and makes hissing sounds and other noises.

  • Trapping White Ibises with Rocket Nets and Mist Nets in the Florida Everglades
    J. Field Ornithol. 74(2):187±192, 2003 Trapping White Ibises with rocket nets and mist nets in the Florida Everglades Julie A. Heath1 and Peter C. Frederick Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611 USA Received 30 April 2002; accepted 19 September 2002 ABSTRACT. We lured White Ibises (Eudocimus albus) to trap sites with decoy plastic ¯amingos and captured them with a rocket net or mist nets. Our ability to attract ibises to a site (and consequently our capture success) was affected by vegetation height and water depth but not by decoy numbers or their arrangement. Both the rocket net (37 ibises) and mist nets (97 ibises) caught birds. The number of birds captured per day was the same for both methods, but the rocket net trap captured more birds per set than did mist nets. Because mist nets were easy to reset we captured 1±2 birds per set multiple times in one day with mist nets. We preferred mist nets over rocket net traps because mist nets allowed for shorter bird processing times, greater ease of set up, and fewer safety considerations for transport and operation of the trap. Also, rocket nets required more equipment and expense. Although we discouraged other species from landing at a trap site, there was evidence that these techniques may also be useful for capturing other wading birds. SINOPSIS.

  • The Use of Nets in Wildlife Damage Management
    Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment for the Use of Wildlife Damage Management Methods by USDA-PHIS-Wildlife Services Chapter XIII The Use of Nets in Wildlife Damage Management JULY 2017 Peer Reviewed Final August 2020 THE USE OF NETS IN WILDLIFE DAMAGE MANAGEMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nets are live capture devices used by USDA-APHIS-Wildlife Services (WS) for specific wildlife damage management projects. Birds were involved in 89% of the wildlife captured and virtually 100% of the dispersal. Fish and mammals were also involved in capture projects with take at 10% and 1%, respectively. Projects involving the use of nets were conducted primarily to protect aircraft from wildlife strikes, monitor wildlife for disease, and conduct research (e.g., capturing and marking or radio collaring birds and mammals to follow their movements). WS uses several netting systems including cannon/rocket nets, net guns, drop nets, mist nets and other netting systems. Cannon, air cannon, and rocket nets were the primary net system used, accounting for 66% of all wildlife captured using nets Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) evaluated the potential human health and environmental risks from WS’ proposed use of nets and determined that the risks to human health and the environment are negligible. Risks to workers are low based on WS personnel being trained in the proper use and set up of nets, net explosives, and wildlife handling in accordance with WS Directive 2.625. Risks to the general population are negligible because site selection and timing of activities minimizes exposure to the public and the fact that WS personnel are always present at the site during netting operations.
