Researchers, including a biologist from Venezuela , have found what's killing Turkey Vulture s in North America — which has implications for South America.can have a six-foot wingspan, eat carrion and the northern species are migratory: birds tagged in Canada have been found, lead scientist at Conservation Science Partners, Inc. explains that the populations he studies breed in North America and then spend time Central and Northern South America to avoid the cold days of the northern winter.
Naveda-Rodriguez explains that his most recent project involved the study of the spatial and population dynamics three North American breeding populations of Turkey Vulture. "The long-term persistence of turkey vultures and the ecosystem services they provide will depend on how we interact with them in breeding and non-breeding grounds," he says.Naveda-Rodriguez grew up in Venezuela, where his interest in wildlife ecology and conservation began before college when he was working as a reptile zookeeper in his hometown.
Naveda-Rodriguez says his current project emerged from a network of collaborators that he joined back in 2005 when he was conducting vultures surveys in Venezuela. "I do think that Global South science from Global South scientists is much needed," he says,"but unfortunately, scientific colonialism is still happening in our region, and we must stop that, we must encourage a sense of belonging among scientist from the Global South."
