  • Free-Roaming Cat Interactions with Wildlife Admitted to a Wildlife Hospital
    The Journal of Wildlife Management; DOI: 10.1002/jwmg.21181 Note Free-roaming cat interactions with wildlife admitted to a wildlife hospital DAVE L. MCRUER,1 Wildlife Center of Virginia, PO Box 1557, 1800 South Delphine Avenue, Waynesboro, VA 22980, USA LINCOLN C. GRAY, Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, James Madison University, MSC 4304, 801 Carrier Drive, Harrisonburg, VA 22807, USA LEIGH-ANN HORNE, Wildlife Center of Virginia, PO Box 1557, 1800 South Delphine Avenue, Waynesboro, VA 22980, USA EDWARD E. CLARK JR., Wildlife Center of Virginia, PO Box 1557, 1800 South Delphine Avenue, Waynesboro, VA 22980, USA ABSTRACT Free-roaming domestic cats are a major anthropogenic source of morbidity and mortality to wild birds and mammals in the United States. Permitted wildlife rehabilitators routinely treat cat-caused injuries. However, extent of these activities is under-reported in the scientific literature. To determine incidence, age class, mortality, diversity and frequency of species affected, nature of injuries, time in care, and temporal and geospatial trends associated with interactions between free-roaming cats and wildlife, we conducted a retrospective analysis on 20,921 records from small birds and mammals presented to the Wildlife Center of Virginia (WCV), USA between 2000 and 2010. Cat interaction was the second greatest cause of small-mammal admissions (14.8%), fourth greatest cause of mammal mortality (70.8%), fourth greatest cause of bird admissions (13.7%), and second greatest cause of avian mortality (80.8%). Eighty-three species were admitted following interactions with cats. Age of wildlife admitted following cat interaction varied by class; juvenile mammals were captured most frequently (40.5%), followed by neonates (34%), then adults (25.5%).

  • Food Habits and Feeding Behavior of the Baltimore Oriole in Costa Rica
    FOOD HABITS AND FEEDING BEHAVIOR OF THE BALTIMORE ORIOLE IN COSTA RICA RICHARD L. TIMKEN ALTIMORE Orioles (Zcterus galbula) are mainly insectivorous during B their summer residence in North America (Bent, 1958)) but little is known of their food habits while wintering in Central America and northern South America. Slud (1964) mentions that this bird has a varied behavior and diet while in Costa Rica, and A. F. Skutch is reported as saying that Baltimore Orioles subsist on a variety of animal and plant foods (Bent, 1958). However, no qualitative or quantitative data are available concerning the food habits and feeding behavior of this species. In Costa Rica the species occupies a wider range of habitat than do the native orioles and exceeds them in total numbers (Slud, 1964). This study was undertaken to obtain some data concerning the habits of this successful species during its stay in Costa Rica. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted at seven different sites in five of the seven Costa Rican Provinces. Collections were obtained at: Taboga, Guanacaste Province; Heredia, Heredia Province; Turrialba, Cartago Province; and San Isidro, San Jose Province. Observations of feeding behavior were obtained at the collection sites and at three other sites: San Jose, San Jose Province; San Vito, and Rincon, Puntarenas Province. Birds were collected with shotguns at different hours on several dates. Stomachs from collected specimens were removed as quickly as possible, slit and preserved in a 70 per cent ethanol solution. The number of each item was recorded per stomach and the per cent by volume of each kind of food item was estimated.

    Baltimore oriole Icterus galbula Kingdom: Animalia FEATURES Phylum: Chordata The Baltimore oriole averages about seven to eight Class: Aves inches in length. The male has orange feathers Order: Passeriformes underneath and black back, wing, tail and head feathers. The female and young have orange-yellow Family: Icteridae feathers underneath and olive-green feathers on the ILLINOIS STATUS upper side. Two, white wing bars may be seen on all Baltimore orioles. common, native BEHAVIORS ILLINOIS RANGE The Baltimore oriole is a common migrant and summer resident statewide. It winters along the coast of the southern United States through Central America. It tends to stay high in the treetops, where it may sometimes be located by its whistling song. These birds begin arriving in Illinois each year in April and May. Nesting takes place in May and June with one brood raised per year. This oriole nests in elm, willow, apple, cottonwood and maple trees. The nest is a woven, hanging pouch of plant fibers, hair, yarn, string and bark placed six to 60 feet above the ground. The nest is lined with hair, wool and grasses. The female builds the nest in four to eight days. Three to five white to pale blue eggs with dark markings are laid in the nest. The incubation period lasts 12 to 14 days with the female alone incubating. Fall migration starts in July, with most of the migration taking place at night. The Baltimore oriole lives in woodlands, especially along lakeshores or streams, and shade trees. It eats insects, fruits and seeds. © Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

  • A Bird's Primary Consideration When Choosing a Nesting Site Is Security
    Fun Facts About Nesting GENERAL - A bird's primary consideration when choosing a nesting site is security. Protection from predators and proximity to food is of vital importance to the success of a bird's offspring. - Abundant and easily obtained sources of food allow for more time to be devoted to better nest site selection and construction of higher quality nests, along with more time and energy to be vigilant in defense of the nesting territory from interlopers and predators. - A study published in the England’s Royal Society journal Biology Letters found that birds with winter access to the extra nutrition that feeders provide will lay their clutch of eggs earlier and fledge an average of one more chick per clutch than do their counterparts with no access to feeders. CHICKADEE - Chickadees are cavity nesters. They will excavate their own nest site in a rotten or decaying wood, use an old woodpecker hole or use a nesting box. They add a cozy nest on a moss base. - Mountain Chickadees may excavate a cavity as well in very loose wood. They will also nest under rock crevices in a bank or in a hole in the ground. They add a cozy lining of fur to the nest. BUSHTITS - The one-foot-long hanging nest of a Bushtit resembles an Oriole’s nest and is woven out of a variety of materials including mosses, lichens, leaves and spider's webs. WRENS - The Cactus Wren builds an elaborate gourd-shaped nest in about ten days, and may fuss with improvements for another several weeks.
