Source areas of Blue‐winged Teal harvested in Ontario and Prairie Canada based on stable isotopes: implications for sustainable management

Determining the source areas of harvested individuals is important for effective conservation and management of migratory game birds. Banding has provided much information about source areas, but obtaining samples of marked individuals representative of all potential breeding areas is difficult for most species. To add to previous knowledge of harvest derivation based on banding data and to assist with regulatory decisions, we used stable...
