Timber harvest is the main threat to nesting birds because of their preference for large trees and forest stands with high canopy cover (Squires and Reynolds 1997), although loss of forest stands to fire and bark beetles could degrade goshawk habitat.ests were constructed an average 10.9 meters above the ground and were usually located near water (232 m) or a clearing (85 m) (Kirkley 1996). Range-wide nest site characteristics are similar. Almost no information is available regarding Northern Goshawk foraging strategies in Montana.
A common result of mycoplasma infection is pneumonia (sometimes called walking pneumonia because it is usually mild and rarely requires hospitalization). Infections of the middle ear (otitis media) also can result. Less common finding are abnormalities of liver function, nausea, diarrhea, and rash.ycoplasma infection is most common in late summer and fall.

It is transmitted to humans by tick bites primarily from the black-legged tick and the western black-legged tick. Symptoms of anaplasmosis include fever, headache, chills, and muscle aches.ince 1972, the blood supply has been screened for Hepatitis B in the U.S., making the risk of transfusion-transmitted HBV extremely rare. Hepatitis C virus. Hepatitis C is a contagious liver disease caused by the Hepatitis C virus (HBV). Hepatitis C is the most common chronic bloodborne infection in the United States.
