This study shows that group size affects how vulturine guineafowl adjust their behavior to thermoregulation-foraging trade-offs, with intermediate group sizes showing more flexible use of open areas.

This study shows that helminth infection in feral pigeons reduces lice abundance, suggesting inhibitory interactions between parasites, though the mechanism remains unclear.

This study finds that lead exposure increases coccidia abundance in male feral pigeons but not other parasites, suggesting lead may impair host antiparasitic defenses.
