Canada should be and is cold but there are exceptions, if you know where to go. In BC if you stay on the western Side of the Rocky Mountains the weather is quite mild because it is warmed by the Pacific Ocean. If you hunt east of the Rocky Mountains, what I call the Canadian Interior it can be as much as 50 degrees colder depending on the time of the year. The area has now preference point requirements, the Outfitter has his allotted vouchers so you can get a reasonably priced license and, in most cases, less than you can get for the same animal in the US as a non-resident. You don’t even buy the voucher from the Outfitter it is part of his hunt cost because without it you could not get a license anyway. Travel is easy and the residents are friendly. Like anywhere outside the US you will need a easy to acquire Passport if you don’t have one, just don’t wait until the last minute to get one for $10 from your local Post office by where you live. The one thing in Canada is if you have a felony on your record Canada will not allow you into their safe Country.

    Species Fact Sheet: Sika Deer (Cervus nippon) [email protected] www.mammal.org.uk 023 8023 7874 Quick Facts Recognition: A medium-sized deer. Has a similar spotted coat to fallow deer in summer, but usually is rougher, thicker, dark grey-brown in winter. Tail is shorter than fallow deer, but with similar white “target” and black margins. Usually has a distinctive “furrowed brow” look, and if seen well, evident white spots on the limbs, marking the site of pedal glands. Males have rounded, not pamate, antlers, looking like a small version of a red deer stag’s antlers. Size: 138-179 cm; Tail length: 14-21cm; Shoulder height 50-120 cm. Weight: Males 40-63kg; females 31-44kg. Life Span: Maximum recorded lifespan in captivity is 26 years; 16 in the wild. Distribution & Habitat Sika are native to SE China, including Taiwan, Korea and Japan. It was introduced to Powerscourt Park, Co Wicklow, Ireland, in 1860, and to London Zoo. Sika then spread to many other parks and escaped or were deliberately released; in some cases they were deliberately released into surrounding woodlands to be hunted on horseback. This resulted in feral populations S England (especially Dorset and the New Forest), in the Forest of Bowland and S Cumbria, and, especially, in Scotland. It is still spreading. Its preference for conifer plantations, especially the thick young stages, has been a big advantage to it. It can reach densities up to 45/km2 in prime habitat. General Ecology Behaviour They typically live in small herds of 6-7 animals, at least in more open habitats, but in dense cover may only live in small groups of 1-3 only.

    Reeves' Muntjac Populations Continue to Grow and Spread Across Great

    European Journal of Wildlife Research (2021) 67:34 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10344-021-01478-2 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Reeves’ muntjac populations continue to grow and spread across Great Britain and are invading continental Europe Alastair I. Ward1 & Suzanne Richardson1 & Joachim Mergeay2,3 Received: 27 August 2020 /Revised: 18 November 2020 /Accepted: 5 March 2021 # The Author(s) 2021 Abstract The appropriate response for controlling an invasive non-native species depends on the extent to which its invasion has progressed, which can be revealed by information on its distribution and abundance. Reeves’ muntjac is a native deer to China and Taiwan, but has been introduced and become well-established in Great Britain. Moreover, in recent years, reports and verified records in the wild from other European countries have become more frequent. We reviewed the status of Reeves’ muntjac in Britain and evaluated its national range expansion from 2002 to 2016. While the British population appears to have tripled in size since 1995, the rate at which it has expanded its range seems to have peaked at approximately 12% per year between 2002 and 2005 and has since declined. We also consolidated observations on its international distribution, including a conservative evaluation of its presence in zoological collections. We predict that this species could expand its range to include every European country, although the availability of suitable landcover and climate is likely to vary substantially between countries. To prevent the significant impacts to conservation interests that have been observed in Great Britain from extending across Europe, national administrations should consider eradicating Reeves’ muntjac while that is still feasible.

    Utah Pronghorn Statewide Management Plan

    UTAH PRONGHORN STATEWIDE MANAGEMENT PLAN UTAH DIVISION OF WILDLIFE RESOURCES DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES UTAH DIVISION OF WILDLIFE RESOURCES STATEWIDE MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR PRONGHORN I. PURPOSE OF THE PLAN A. General This document is the statewide management plan for pronghorn in Utah. This plan will provide overall direction and guidance to Utah’s pronghorn management activities. Included in the plan is an assessment of current life history and management information, identification of issues and concerns relating to pronghorn management in the state, and the establishment of goals, objectives and strategies for future management. The statewide plan will provide direction for establishment of individual pronghorn unit management plans throughout the state. B. Dates Covered This pronghorn plan will be in effect upon approval of the Wildlife Board (expected date of approval November 30, 2017) and subject to review within 10 years. II. SPECIES ASSESSMENT A. Natural History The pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) is the sole member of the family Antilocapridae and is native only to North America. Fossil records indicate that the present-day form may go back at least a million years (Kimball and Johnson 1978). The name pronghorn is descriptive of the adult male’s large, black-colored horns with anterior prongs that are shed each year in late fall or early winter. Females also have horns, but they are shorter and seldom pronged. Mature pronghorn bucks weigh 45–60 kilograms (100–130 pounds) and adult does weigh 35–45 kilograms (75–100 pounds). Pronghorn are North America’s fastest land mammal and can attain speeds of approximately 72 kilometers (45 miles) per hour (O’Gara 2004a).

In March 2017, the Department of Interior changed its policy to allow for hunting of hibernating bears. These cubs may have been orphaned as a result of the hunting deaths of their mothers. The cubs came to the San Francisco Zoo after rehabilitation at the Alaska Zoo and are thriving in their new home. Male found outside Valdez, Alaska, May 2017. Animal rescue is an important component of the Society’s strategic vision, tying together our work in animal conservation, wellness, and advocacy, as well as raising awareness of human impact on animal habitats and the environment. Special thanks to our volunteer photographers, Marianne Hale and May Woon, for their contributions. Dear Friends: What is your Zoo story? Each one of us has a unique connection to the Zoo whether as a visitor, donor, volunteer, partner, or staff member. In this fiscal year 2016–2017 annual report, we are pleased to share a collection of vignettes and stories that together tell the larger narrative of today’s San Francisco Zoo and Gardens as a vibrant space for animal advocacy, conservation, wellness, and community education and engagement.
