Marine and Terrestrial Protein in Australian Aboriginal Diets

TL;DR: The Koranic prescription of breast-feeding until two years of age probably reinforced a strong pre-Islamic behavior pattern, and the present rapid disintegration of this pattern may have a much greater impact on human evolution than the so-called industrial revolution as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Do purely capital layers exist among flying birds? Evidence of exogenous contribution to arctic-nesting common eider eggs

TL;DR: This work investigates the annual and seasonal variation in contributions of endogenous and exogenous resources to egg formation in eiders breeding at the East Bay colony in the Canadian Arctic and rejects the hypothesis that eiders are pure capital layers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of forest fragmentation by agriculture on avian communities in the southern boreal mixedwoods of western canada

TL;DR: Species richness was higher than expected in contiguous forest for interior species, whereas edge and short-distance migratory species were more common in the fragmented landscape, and Predation and brood parasitism were higher on nests of ground and shrub nesting birds in the fragmentation landscape than in contiguousforest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advances in Linking Wintering Migrant Birds to Their Breeding-Ground Origins Using Combined Analyses of Genetic and Stable Isotope Markers

TL;DR: This work presents a new Bayesian approach for inferring breeding grounds of wintering birds of unknown origins in North America based upon stable-hydrogen isotope analysis of feathers (δ2Hf), using the Loggerhead Shrike.
