Oxidative stress as a mediator of life history trade-offs: mechanisms, measurements and interpretation. (2009, background): “…depend on the balance between resources devoted to combating oxidative stress vs. other requirements – and investment in the former divided between reducing ROS production, quenching those ROS that are produced and repairing any oxidative damage (McNamara & Buchanan 2005; Yearsley et al. 2005).”
Hematological differences between stingrays at tourist and non-visited sites suggest physiological costs of wildlife tourism. (2009, background): “McNamara and Buchanan (2005) modeled the optimal tradeoff of resource allocation between competing demands of combating a stressor and bodily maintenance, and predicted that the longer the stress period is expected to last, damage to self maintenance (e.g., reduced physiological reserves of…”
Costs of group-living for a normally solitary forager: effects of provisioning tourism on southern stingrays Dasyatis americana (2008, background): “Open wounds can be sources of pathogen entry, or tax the ray’s allostatic abilities (the cumulative result of physiological allocation in relation to environmental stimuli) with resultant effects on long-term health (McNamara & Buchanan 2005).”
