Abstract:
Eggs of wild giant Canada Geese (Branta canadensis maxima) breeding in southern Ontario were collected and incubated artificially. Components of the total nutrient reserve of goslings were measured at hatch to test whether relationships existed between egg size, gosling weight, and weight of reserves in goslings. The growth rate of fed goslings of different weights at hatch was measured for 25 days. The nutrient reserves remaining in goslings of different hatch weights were measured after 2, 4, and 6 days of starvation. Egg size and gosling weight were not highly correlated in this population

Abstract:
SummaryThe risk of the NeneBranta sandvicensisbecoming extinct has been minimized by the release of over 2,000 captive-reared geese, but the population (now at 500) is yet to achieve a self-sustaining status. The majority of birds released have been reared in gosling-only groups, thus missing out on the opportunity to learn social and feeding skills from adults. In this paper we test the hypothesis that rearing experience affects the subsequent behavioural traits of Nene goslings. We raised 42 goslings under four conditions: a gosling group not exposed to adults, a gosling group exposed to adu

Abstract:
AbstractAdoptions of unrelated young by successful breeders are a form of alloparental care which has been observed in many species of geese. Depending on costs and benefits to the parents, adoptions might represent an inter-generational conflict or a mutually beneficial strategy. Although most studies of wild populations suggest benefits of large brood sizes, incidental observations mostly report aggressive behaviour of parents towards lone goslings. No studies have investigated mechanisms and behaviour during adoptions in order to test whether adoptions are driven by parents or goslings. To

Abstract We conducted an experiment to study the effect of gosling density on food abundance and feeding behavior of Black Brant (Branta bernicla) goslings in two habitat types important to Black Brant on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska: (1) Carex subspathacea grazing lawns and (2) slough levees that contain Triglochin palustris. Within each habitat, we manipulated grazing pressure by allowing goslings to graze specific plots every 6, 9, or 12 days. We randomly assigned six goslings to one of six treatment groups (three grazing frequencies × two habitats). Biomass of C. subspathacea was high

A comparison of cold-stressed Lesser Snow Goose (Chen caerulescens caerulescens) goslings revealed that the metabolic rates of light-colored (snow) and dark-colored (blue) goslings did not differ when they were measured in the dark. Small differences in plumage insulation (higher in snow goslings) and core body temperature (lower in blue goslings) seemed to balance each other so that there was no difference in rates of thermogenesis between morphs. We conclude that physiological thermoregulation does not compensate for potential differential radiative heat loads between the morphs.

Abstract:
This study examines how changing from a standing to a sitting posture influences the thermal environment of greater snow goose goslings (Chen caerulescens atlantica). This was investigated by estimating the standard operative temperature of four heated taxidermic mounts (3, 10, 20, and 30 d old) exposed to various wind velocities (0-5 m/s) and ground (16-23°C) and air (0-15°C) temperatures, in three orientations (head, flank, or tail toward the wind) and two postures (sitting and standing). Changes in posture influenced both conductive and convective heat exchanges. At low wind speeds, sitting

Abstract:
The possibilities of increasing the productivity of animals and poultry when using an additive containing selenium, rapeseed cake and a complex mineral additive have been studied. Adding to the feed of selenium-containing drug “Carasel” enhanced the digestibility of nutrients, increase of erythrocytes, hemoglobin in the blood, yield of certifi ed goslings, and profi tability. The digestibility of dry and organic matter has increased by 0,46–1,14 %, protein – up to 5,15 %. Depending on the dose of the additive the digestibility of raw fi ber, raw fat, and nitrogen-free extractive substances wer

Abstract:
The long-distance migratory flights of birds are predominantly fueled by the oxidation of fatty acids, which are sourced primarily from extracellular adipose stores. These fatty acids have to be transported, via the circulatory system, to the mitochondria of the active muscles. An important facilitator of fatty acid transport within the cytoplasm of muscle cells is fatty acid binding protein (FABP), which serves as an intracellular carrier of long-chain fatty acids. In mammals, the muscular FABP content is related to the fatty acid oxidation capacity of the tissue. The aim of this study was to

According to many scientists, the list of trace elements that are currently used in compound feeds for various types of poultry is clearly insufficient. In recent years, applied research has been conducted to determine the physiological needs of poultry for certain mineral elements that perform important biochemical functions in the body. This also applies to such biotic ultramicroelement as selenium. Scientific research of domestic and foreign scientists in the field of physiology, biochemistry, medicine and veterinary medicine has proved that selenium is a trace element with a fairly wide ra

Abstract:
Two outbreaks of severe acute disease characterised by hepatitis and hydropericardium were observed in young goslings on large-scale farms in Hungary. Histological examination revealed multifocal necrotic areas and two types of intranuclear inclusion bodies adjacent to necrotic areas in the liver. The most prominent type of inclusion bodies showed strong basophilic staining and completely filled the enlarged nucleus. The other type was eosinophilic and occupied the centre of the nucleus, which had margination of chromatin. In the heart, haemorrhage was associated with multifocal necrosis in th

Abstract:
We recorded seasonal changes in the total amounts of soluble carbohydrates in shoots of salt- and fresh-water coastal plants at La Pérouse Bay, northern Manitoba, to determine whether adult snow geese and their goslings selected forage rich in soluble carbohydrates during the breeding season. The selection of forage plants in spring and summer by adults and goslings was strongly linked to the presence of high amounts of soluble carbohydrates in tissues: on the order of 100 mg·g–1 dry mass. When the content fell as a result of shoot development or leaf senescence, the geese switched to alternat
