The paper screens seabird species for antibodies against avian cholera bacteria to assess spatial distribution and identify potential sentinels for disease monitoring.

The study finds persistent antibody levels and limited population immunity in gannets after an HPAI outbreak, emphasizing the role of long-lasting immunity in population persistence.

The paper reports the first detection of H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b in mainland Australia from seabirds, tracing the viruses to Heard Island via phylogenetic analysis and highlighting the risk of mainland establishment.

The paper reports a multi-species outbreak of HPAI H5N1 on Heard Island, causing mass mortality in southern elephant seals and other seabirds, with drones used for monitoring.

This study tracks the spread and evolution of H5N1 in the sub-Antarctic and Antarctica, revealing long-distance dispersal and mammalian-adaptive mutations.

This study identifies drivers of infectious agent communities in seabirds by analyzing factors like host species, island location, and transmission traits across multiple islands.

This study examines co-infection patterns in European roe deer, finding that proximity to livestock, sex, age, and activity levels influence parasite presence, with minimal between-parasite interactions.

This study vaccinates king penguin chicks with an mRNA vaccine against H5 HPAI and finds a persistent immune response without adverse effects.

This study examines glycation rates and glucose levels across 88 bird species to assess their relationship with life history traits, finding resistance to glycation in high glucose species and unexpected patterns in lifespan and diet.

This study reports the arrival of HPAI H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b in sub-Antarctic Indian Ocean islands, causing mass mortality in seals and birds, and identifies independent introductions from South Georgia.

The paper assesses serological prevalence of Borrelia and TBEV in roe deer across Northern France, identifying spatial clusters for Borrelia but not TBEV.

The paper investigates the delayed incursion of H5N1 avian influenza in Antarctica by analyzing surveillance data from before confirmed cases.

The paper genomes 16 Erysipelothrix isolates from albatross carcasses, identifies them as a novel species, and proposes the name Erysipelothrix amsterdamensis.
