Declining northern pike 🐟 populations have raised concerns about possible reproductive issues, with one theory that sperm quality is reducing due to altered salinity. This study tests the theory, comparing sperm performance in fresh & brackish water ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

Steroid hormones are useful indicators of health in marine mammals, but measurements are often limited by sample size. This new #Toolbox article presents a new method for analysing steroid hormones in small blubber samples in four whale species. 🐋 ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy…
