Our Furry Friends the Animal Issue コミュニティー ライフスタイル ビジネス エンターテイメント VOL. 04 NO. 13 FREE JUL. 06 – JUL. 19 2007 ESTABLISHED 1970 BY CORKY ALEXANDER OUR FURRY FRIENDS THE ANIMAL ISSUE ANIMALS HEAD TO SCHOOL KEEPING PETS IN TOKYO BUYING INTO HORSERACING GO ON SAFARI AT HOME OR ABROAD Photo by Kerry Raftis/www.keyshots.com ALSO ONLINE AT WWW.WEEKENDERJAPAN.COM Twenty-two-year-old Lindsay Ann Hawker was teaching English in Japan when she was brutally murdered at the end of March this year. She was last seen with 28-year-old Tatsuya Ichihashi and her body was discovered on the balcony of his flat in Tokyo. He remains the Japanese police's only suspect and as we go to print, has still not been found. In support of Lindsay’s family and the Japanese police in their hunt for this man, Being A Broad is launching a t-shirt campaign. We hope that enough people—men and women, Japanese and foreign—will wear this t-shirt so that this man’s face is seen by as many people as possible in Japan, on a daily basis. The Japanese words on the t-shirt roughly translate to “Until this man is caught, I won’t sleep at night”, which can be interpreted in many ways: perhaps you are that bit more nervous at night knowing this man has not been caught; perhaps you are a father and worried about your daughter; perhaps you are a husband and worried about your wife; perhaps you want to make a statement against all violent crime against women. For men and women, Japanese and foreign, this t-shirt can have many meanings. What wearing this t-shirt will definitely mean, however, is that you are playing a part in assisting Lindsay’s family in keeping this man’s face right where people can see it. Wear it at the gym, dropping the kids off at school, going shopping, on the train, and just walking around—wear it anywhere you will be seen by many people. Caroline Pover-Foulkes Founder, Being A Broad “The more people that wear the t- shirts, the more support that we will feel is being shown for us. Lindsay was a teacher who loved her life in Japan. She would have been first in the queue to buy and wear such a t-shirt for another victim. She had a strong sense of justice and would have done anything she could have to have helped others.” -The Hawker Family To order your t-shirt, or to give a donation to pay for the production of t-shirts for others, go to: www.being-a-broad.com THINGS TO DO VOL.04 NO.13 FREE JUL. 06 – JUL. 19 2007 04 Feature Saturday, Jul 7 Saturday, Jul 14 Keeping pets in Tokyo May all your wishes come Hail Japan!

  • Immobilization and Anaesthesia in Asiatic Lions (Panthera Leo Persica)

Abstract | A total of 12 trials were conducted in 8 Asiatic and hybrid lions (Panthera leo persica) for diagnostic and surgical procedures. All the lions were immobilized with a combination of xylazine and ketamine at the rate of 1.00 mg/kg and 2.00 mg/kg body weight, respectively, using darts based on assumed body weight. Ketamine and propofol intravenously were used as induction agents sufficiently to achieve deep plane of anaesthesia and good jaw muscle relaxation in six trials each of treatment I and II. The commercially available large animal endotracheal tubes and cus- tom made silicon medical grade tubes were used for intubation either by direct visualization or by digital palpation of glottis. Anaesthesia was maintained with isoflurane. The study revealed that the young lions required 1.08±0.10 and 2.70±0.26 mg/kg and adult required 1.06±0.30 and 2.64±0.08 mg/kg body weight of xylazine and ketamine, respec- tively for immobilization. Ear flick reflex was taken as an indicator for safe and appropriate time for approaching the lion after immobilization, which was completely abolished only after 1.37 and 2.01 minutes after recumbency in young and adult lions, respectively.

  • Fecal Progestagens to Detect and Monitor Pregnancy in Captive Female Cheetahs (Acinonyx Jubatus)

The purposes of the present study were to establish a noninvasive monitoring assay of fecal progestagen measurement to detect pregnancy and to identify the components of fecal progestagens in early, middle and late pregnancy in cheetahs. Feces were collected from 7 female cheetahs and analyzed from 30 days before the last copulation to parturition in 9 pregnancies. Blood was collected from one cheetah. Fecal progestagen and serum progesterone concentrations were determined by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The profiles of the fecal progestagen concentrations were similar to the serum progesterone profile. Fecal progestagen and serum progesterone concentrations remained at the baseline until copulation. In the mean fecal progestagen profile during pregnancy (92.8 ± 0.4 days; from the last copulation to parturition), the concentrations increased 3–4 days after the last copulation and remained high until parturition. To investigate changes in the components of progestagen metabolites in the tripartite periods of gestation, fecal progestagens were analyzed by HPLC-EIA.
