Assessment of excreta collection methods to estimate true metabolizable energy of waterfowl foods in wild ducks

ABSTRACT True metabolizable energy (TME) of waterfowl foods is commonly estimated for use in energetic carrying capacity models in association with conservation planning efforts under the North American Waterfowl Management Plan. Researchers define and estimate TME as the net energy from excreta col...
