- Wild snakes harbor West Nile virus.
Dahlin CR, Hughes DF, Meshaka WE Jr et al. · One health (Amsterdam, Netherlands) · 2016-09 · open access
West Nile virus (WNV) has a complex eco-epidemiology with birds acting as reservoirs and hosts for the virus. Less well understood is the role of reptiles, especially in wild populations. The goal of our study was to determine whether a wild population of snakes in Pennsylvania harbored WNV. Six…

- Effects of a mining‐altered environment on individual fitness of amphibians and reptiles
Kiyoshi SASAKI, David Lesbarrères, Camille Tremblay Beaulieu et al. · Ecosphere · 2016-06 · open access
Abstract Pollution can affect wildlife directly through toxicity and indirectly through changes in biotic and abiotic factors, however, how these mechanisms interact in affecting free‐ranging animals remains poorly understood. By examining effects on individual fitness proxies, we aimed to…
- Evidence of Predation on Nestling Birds by Eastern Gartersnakes (Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis)
William D. Halliday · The Canadian Field-Naturalist · 2016-04 · open access
- Toxicity and population structure of the Rough-Skinned Newt (Taricha granulosa) outside the range of an arms race with resistant predators.
Hague MT, Avila LA, Hanifin CT et al. · Ecology and evolution · 2016-03 · open access
Species interactions, and their fitness consequences, vary across the geographic range of a coevolutionary relationship. This spatial heterogeneity in reciprocal selection is predicted to generate a geographic mosaic of local adaptation, wherein coevolutionary traits are phenotypically variable…

- Faecal corticosterone metabolite concentrations are not a good predictor of habitat suitability for common gartersnakes.
Halliday WD, Gilmour KM, Blouin-Demers G · Conservation physiology · 2015-10 · open access
Measuring habitat suitability is important in conservation and in wildlife management. Measuring the abundance or presence-absence of a species in various habitats is not sufficient to measure habitat suitability because these metrics can be poor predictors of population success. Therefore, having…

The endangered San Francisco garter snake Thamnophis sirtalis tetrataenia occurs in only 2 counties on the densely populated San Francisco Peninsula, California, USA.Due to its limited geographic range and destruction of populations by the rapid pace of urban development in the 1950s and 1960s, T.…
