Article Synopsis
- Movement is crucial for animals as it influences their interactions with different landscapes, providing insights into ecological dynamics and potential conservation strategies.
- Based on studies of thrush species in Brazil, the research found that their movement patterns are highly complex or "tortuous" in forests, less so in urban areas, and straightforward in open spaces, indicating the impact of habitat type on their behavior.
- The study emphasized that while thrushes are adaptable to various environments, they prefer forest edges, highlighting the importance of edge habitats in ecological research and conservation efforts.
Hantaviruses are zoonotic viruses harbored by rodents, bats, and shrews. At present, only rodent-borne hantaviruses are associated with severe illness in humans. New species of hantaviruses have been recently identified in bats and shrews greatly expanding the potential reservoirs and ranges of these viruses.
