Integrating oxidative ecology into conservation physiology

Given that oxidative balance acts on fitness components, its measurement may be valuable to conservationists to assess population health. We show that antioxidant defences reflect population trends in penguin colonies. These preliminary results suggest that oxidative balance could be used to assess the health of animal populations in their habitat.
