African Openbill Stork distributional response to rice paddy prey availability driven by crop-stage and competitor abundance -- implications for bio-control of schistosomiasis gastropod vectors

2025-02-10

Abstract excerpt

Rice paddy-fields have become increasingly important worldwide as reliable alternative foraging sites for many wading birds due to the rapid loss or degradation of their natural wetland habitats. While assemblage and dispersal patterns of these birds are influenced by spatial distribution of their food resources, foraging activities of some species contribute significantly to natural suppression of some organism h...
