Migration comes with tradeoffs. Flamingoes that migrate don’t live as long as their resident cousins—their lifespan is 6.7 years shorter on average—but nonmigrating flamingoes see accelerated mortality and reproductive declines later in life. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Flamingos Reveal a Secret About Ageing. While most living beings do grow old, migrating flamingos do so more slowly than residents. Thanks to long-term monitoring program led by @tourduvalat.bsky.social we have uncovered this surprising phenomenon.Look at our publication www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

🦩🦩🦩 First paper from my last postdoc at @tourduvalat.bsky.social, co-first authored with Hugo Cayuela, is now published in @pnas.org. Thanks to a wonderful dataset on the Greater Flamingo in southern France, we investigated the relationship between migratory behaviour and ageing. 🦩🦩🦩

A large proportion of the white storks in southern Europe no longer migrate. Our new paper examined the mechanims behind the loss in migratory behavious with several methods including tracking data besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #ornithology #whitestorks #animalmigration

Mechanisms underlying the loss of migratory behaviour in a long‐lived bird

White stork populations in Iberia are undergoing a profound change in their migratory patterns, becoming mostly resident. By combining census data, GPS-tracking and genomic analyses, Andrade et al. l...
