				<![CDATA[
					What drives rabies virus transmission in vampire bats? What is the  current status of isolated wetlands in southwest Georgia? How will the  transition from confinement dairy farms to pasture-based dairy farms  affect carbon cycling in the southeastern U.S.? These are just a few of  the research questions that will be addressed by students, faculty and  postdoctoral associates from the University of Georgia at the upcoming  97th annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America Aug. 5-10 in  Portland, Ore.

				<title>UGA study may lead to more effective rabies control strategies</title>
				<link>http://news.uga.edu/releases/article/uga&#45;study&#45;may&#45;lead&#45;to&#45;more&#45;effective&#45;rabies&#45;control&#45;strategies</link>
				<description>
				<![CDATA[
					A new study of rabies in vampire bats in Peru has found that culling  bats&mdash;a common rabies control strategy&mdash;does not reduce rates of rabies  exposure in bat colonies and may even be counterproductive. The findings  may eventually help public health and agriculture officials in Peru  develop more effective methods for preventing rabies infections in  humans and livestock. The study, published in the Proceedings of the  Royal Society B on June 13, was conducted by a team of scientists from  the U.S. and Peru led by Daniel Streicker, a postdoctoral associate in  the University of Georgia Odum School of Ecology.

				<description>
				<![CDATA[
					Something is killing American bald eagles, and Susan Wilde is determined  to find out what. An assistant professor in the University of Georgia  Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources, Wilde has a theory  about the silent killer of America's most famous birds. She thinks their  food is killing them, causing avian vacuolar myelinopathy, with deadly  brain lesions and neurological problems.
