Light Pollution Guidelines - external resources

The Australian Department of the Environment and Energy in collaboration with the Western Australian Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions has developed National Light Pollution Guidelines for Wildlife including Marine Turtles, Seabirds and Migratory Shorebirds. The National Light Pollution Guidelines aim to raise awareness of the potential impacts of artificial light on wildlife and provide a framework for assessing and managing these impacts around susceptible listed wildlife.  Published January 2020.

ACAP Directrices IAAP H5N1_Nov 2023_s.pdf

Serafini, P.P.; Vanstreels, R.E.T.; Uhart, M.; Dewar, M.; Wille, M.; Roberts, L.; Black, J.; Jiménez-Uzcátegui, G.; Baker, H.; Michael, S.; Gartrell, B.; Gamble, A.; Younger, J.; Lopez, V.; Work, T. 2023. Directrices para trabajar con albatros y petreles durante la panzootia de influenza aviar altamente patógena (IAAP) H5N1.

La actual ola panzoótica de influenza aviar altamente patógena (IAAP) subtipo H5N1 comenzó en 2021 y, desde entonces, ha causado la muerte de millones de aves tras haberse extendido a los cinco continentes (al 5 de noviembre de 2023, solo Oceanía y la Antártida continental permanecen libres de la enfermedad). Si bien la IAAP H5N1 ha sido reconocida como una amenaza para la industria avícola desde su aparición en 1996, se produjo una variación genética en 2021, lo que resultó en una explosión de casos en aves silvestres, especialmente aves marinas. Asociado a esto, se han producido numerosos e importantes eventos de mortalidad masiva, que han provocado la muerte de cientos de miles de piqueros, pelícanos, charranes, cormoranes, grullas, gansos, alcatraces, skúas y pingüinos en África, Eurasia y América.

Tissue sampling guidelines following disease outbreak - external resource

Unusual animal mortalities, although rare, have been observed amongst Antarctic wildlife. It is always possible that such phenomena are caused by disease introduced or spread by humans. The Australian Antarctic Division has developed an Unusual Animal Mortality Response Plan [PDF] to provide guidance on what to do if sick or dead animals are discovered in unusually high numbers or with signs that suggest disease.

ACAP Pautas de erradicación_1.3_09-2019_s.pdf

El objetivo de este trabajo es resumir las pautas de erradicación de vertebrados introducidos en los sitios de reproducción de las especies del ACAP, y ofrecer bibliografía seleccionada y recursos online. Las pautas se refieren principalmente a islas, pero muchos de sus principios se aplican a sitios continentales. Estas pautas no reemplazan el asesoramiento idóneo y detallado de los expertos en erradicación de plagas.  Actualizado en septiembre de 2019.
