Arctic temperatures and the long‐tailed ducks shot in eastern North America
The numbers of adult females and first‐winter long‐tailed ducks Clangula hyemalis shot in eastern North America between 1972 and 1994 have fallen, though the kill of adult males shows no trend. Most of these ducks are likely to have originated in the Arctic Tundra climatic region of Canada. Although...
