New tool links wildfire smoke to wildlife health

Original: New tool links wildfire smoke exposure to wildlife health and behavior

A newly introduced tool links wildfire smoke exposure to health and behavioral effects in wildlife, according to a report by DVM360. The development gives researchers and veterinarians a way to measure how smoke from increasingly frequent wildfires affects wild animals, a topic that has received far less attention than impacts on human health. It arrives as wildfire seasons intensify across North America and elsewhere.

Why now: Wildfire smoke is increasingly common, and attention is turning to its effects on animals as well as people.
