AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Wildlife Research: University of Maine biologist Kylie Brunette and colleagues report the first known footage of American woodcock hens defending nests from white-tailed deer, using tactics from puffing up to full attacks—an unexpected behavior that may help explain how the birds manage high re-nesting potential. Public Health: Maine is now included in the ongoing Cyclospora outbreak tied to Taylor Farms iceberg lettuce, with FDA/CDC inspections underway at the Mexican facility and 9,481 illnesses reported across 17 states as officials stress recalled product is off the market. Rural Health & AI: Maine is seeking federal Rural Health Transformation funding to modernize rural care, with state plans likely to include AI while focusing on workforce recruitment, community-based services, and reducing transportation barriers. Marine Safety: Maine DMR is urging beachgoers to use extra caution as white shark sightings increase along the coast, especially near southern Maine beaches, with guidance on swimming behavior and reporting sightings via Sharktivity. Infrastructure Watch: MaineDOT says it will conduct a fact-finding review after a section of the Llewellen Estes Bridge under construction in Old Town collapsed, with minor injuries reported and the temporary bridge still carrying traffic. Biomedical Research: Maine INBRE marked 25 years of biomedical research training and infrastructure investment, highlighting how the network has expanded undergraduate research opportunities across Maine’s universities and partners.
