Some recent information exists on the nutrient requirements of pheasant, quail, and partridge; however, there is a tendency to rely on information for the turkey. A challenge exists in designing game bird diets since birds can be reared for commercial meat production or for hunting preserves. Birds grown for release are not required to grow at the maximum rate, and in many cases achieving a high rate of gain would be detrimental to flight ability.

THE World Health Organization (WHO) recently released its first ever antimicrobial resistance report, titled “Antimicrobial Resistance: Global Report on Surveillance.”
To accomplish this, WHO attempted to obtain information on resistance from 129 member states for nine bacterium/antibiotic drug of choice combinations the agency selected. Unfortunately, only 114 countries provided any data, and only 22 countries had data for all nine combinations.
In addition to the nine bacteria of concern in regard to antibiotic resistance, the report also focuses on other antimicrobial resistance that is increasing in multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB), malaria, influenza and HIV.
