Aglais io, the European peacock, more commonly known simply as the peacock butterfly, is a colourful butterfly, found in Europe and temperate Asia as far east as was formerly classified as the only member of the genus Inachis (the name is derived from Greek mythology, meaning Io, the daughter of Inachus [citation needed]).It should not be confused or classified Class: Insecta.

Airports often contain foraging, breeding, and roosting resources for wildlife. Airports also have different types of radars to assist with air traffic control, monitoring weather, and tracking.

The body is less dense so there is less scatter and grids are not needed even in birds > 10cm. As a high proportion of the body is air, lower exposure settings are required than what might be expected for the same body thickness in mammals.

Avian influenza or avian influenza virus (AIV) is a viral disease that can affect bird species throughout the world.

Birds get the flu like other wildlife and humans do. There are many subtypes or strains of AIV based on a combination of two proteins, H and N. Avian influenza viruses are further classified based on their ability to produce. Start studying chapter 10 terms. Learn vocabulary, terms, and more with flashcards, games, and other study tools.

Weight: Avian patients MUST be weighed at every visit. The only way to get an accurate weight is to use a gram scale. For friendly birds you can use a perch stand on top of the scale and for others a small basket/cage on the scale.

Always zero the scale with the perch or cage on it. for identifying avian repellent compounds. It has now been found that certain topological and electronic features of a molecule, especially the presence of a core ring structure, the basicity of the molecule in general, and the electrone gativity of the core ring structure, are predictive of its avian repellency.

Spain is the 14th European Union member to report H5N1 avian flu in birds, on the basis of information from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. An outbreak of avian influenza is a particular concern in Spain because, according to a Bloomberg News report today on the outbreak, Spain is Europe’s biggest tourist destination.

This study describes selection derived from habitat acoustics on the physical structure of avian sounds. Sound propagation tests were made in forest, edge, and grassland habitats in Panama to quantify pure tone and random noise band sound transmission levels.

The sounds of bird species in each habitat were analyzed to determine the emphasized frequency, frequency range, and Cited by: Historically, fire was one of the most widespread natural disturbances in the western United States.

More recently, however, significant anthropogenic activities, especially fire suppression and silvicultural practices, have altered fire regimes; as a result, landscapes and associated communities have changed as well.
