Elephants were vital agents of empire. In British Burma their unique abilities made them essential workers in the colony’s booming teak industry. Their labour was integral to the commercial exploitation of the country’s vast forests. They helped to fell the trees, transport the logs and load the timber onto ships. As a result of their utility, capturing and caring for them was of utmost importance to timber firms. Elephants became a peculiar form of capital that required particular expertise. To address this need for knowledge, imperial researchers deepened their scientific understanding of the Asian elephant by studying working elephants in Burma’s jungle camps and timber yards. The resulting knowledge was contingent upon the conscripted and constrained agency of working elephants, and was conditioned by the asymmetrical power relationships of colonial rule. Animal agency Writing in the interwar years about his life working in the timber industry of colonial Burma during the late nineteenth century, John Nisbet recalled how Mounggyi, having been one of the best-natured and tamest elephants he had known, became unmanageable due to a bout of musth.

The user has requested enhancement of the downloaded file. Chapter 9 Costs and Consequences of Reproduction Virpi Lummaa Abstract The life history of women is characterized by several unusual patterns: women have a relatively late age at maturity compared to other primates, they pro- duce offspring at short inter-birth intervals, and typically have many dependent offspring of varying ages to care for simultaneously. Women then lose their poten- tial to bear children at menopause but can live a few decades afterwards. Such a reproductive strategy involves several trade-offs and costs of reproduction to future success that have to be optimized across the entire lifespan. This chapter sum- marizes evidence from humans on the costs of reproduction. First, I discuss the short-and long-term effects of investment in reproduction on the survival patterns of individuals. Second, I address how current reproductive investment affects the ability to invest in future reproductive events. Third, I review the evidence for such costs of reproduction and trade-offs changing with the age of the individual and across different environments.
