Abstract
American Black Ducks Anus rubripes were marked and recaptured along mid-coastal Maine [USA] between the winters of 1979 and 1985 to examine the relationship between body mass and annual survival. Binary regression analyses indicated that late-winter body mass was not positively related to annual survival for any age-sex class.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
