  • Zoological Best Practices Working Group Planning Roadmap
    September 2011, Zoo Animal Health Network www.zooanimalhealthnetwork.org Zoological Best Practices Working Group Planning Roadmap A Basic Guide for Emergency Planners for Managed Wildlife Facilities Prepared by the Zoo Best Practices Working Group for Disaster Preparedness and Contingency Planning 2011 Page 1 of 32 INTRODUCTION The Zoological Best Practices Working Group for Disaster Preparedness and Contingency Planning (ZBPWG) is pleased to provide the following information for your use in creating, reviewing and updating preparedness plans for managed wildlife facilities. The managed wildlife community is a diverse group, ranging from small exhibitors, wildlife owners, sanctuaries, rehabilitation facilities, zoos and aquariums. The ZBPWG’s mission was to provide information and recommend Best Practices that could prove useful to this wide variety of animal care experts. It is the hope of the Working Group that the information within and the references that are provided will assist anyone, regardless of the ‘size’ of your operation, to produce useful, integrated plans. The ZBPWG was created via Cooperative Agreement with United States Department of Agriculture Animal Care, and the Zoo Animal Health Network, located at Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. The ZBPWG members have a diverse background within the managed wildlife community. Members are USDA veterinarians, zoo employees, wildlife rehabilitators, and exotic ranchers. A number of the members have been directly involved in natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina. Others are subject matter experts who have added valuable information from other industry sectors that could be applied to wildlife facilities. The Mission Statement for the ZBPWG The mission of the Zoological Best Practices Working Group is to promote a culture of ‘all hazards contingency planning and preparedness’ for the managed wildlife community.

  • Read Book Through England on a Side-Saddle Ebook, Epub
    THROUGH ENGLAND ON A SIDE-SADDLE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Celia Fiennes | 96 pages | 02 Apr 2009 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141191072 | English | London, United Kingdom Sidesaddle - Wikipedia Ninth century depictions show a small footrest, or planchette added to the pillion. In Europe , the sidesaddle developed in part because of cultural norms which considered it unbecoming for a woman to straddle a horse while riding. This was initially conceived as a way to protect the hymen of aristocratic girls, and thus the appearance of their being virgins. However, women did ride horses and needed to be able to control their own horses, so there was a need for a saddle designed to allow control of the horse and modesty for the rider. The earliest functional "sidesaddle" was credited to Anne of Bohemia — The design made it difficult for a woman to both stay on and use the reins to control the horse, so the animal was usually led by another rider, sitting astride. The insecure design of the early sidesaddle also contributed to the popularity of the Palfrey , a smaller horse with smooth ambling gaits, as a suitable mount for women. A more practical design, developed in the 16th century, has been attributed to Catherine de' Medici. In her design, the rider sat facing forward, hooking her right leg around the pommel of the saddle with a horn added to the near side of the saddle to secure the rider's right knee. The footrest was replaced with a "slipper stirrup ", a leather-covered stirrup iron into which the rider's left foot was placed.

    Correspondent: Dr Mark Jones, Head of Policy, Born Free Foundation, Broadlands Business Campus, Langhurstwood Road, Horsham RH12 4QP, United Kingdom [email protected] Joint open letter to: Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus Inger Andersen Director General Executive Director World Health Organisation United Nations Environment Programme Avenue Appia 20 United Nations Avenue, Gigiri 1211 Geneva PO Box 30552 Switzerland 00100 Nairobi Kenya Dr Monique Eloit Director General Office International Epizoologie 12 Rue de Prony 75017 Paris France 11th February, 2020 Live Wild Animal Markets, Human and Animal Health, and Biodiversity Protection Distinguished Colleagues, The undersigned 76 organisations and individuals are writing to urge you to strongly encourage governments across the world to introduce and enforce legislation to close wildlife markets, particularly those at which trade in live animals is commonplace, and to introduce mechanisms designed to significantly and demonstrably reduce demand for live wild animals and products derived from them. Markets selling live wild animals are found in many countries. However, rapidly growing human populations, increased access to even the most remote wildlife areas through changes in land use and infrastructure development, greater disposable income, increasing urbanisation, and the changing nature of demand, has resulted in the rapid expansion and commercialisation of such markets, increasing the risks to global human and animal health, compromising animal welfare, and placing biodiversity under unsustainable pressure. The current coronavirus epidemic sweeping across parts of China is believed to have originated in wildlife, and may have been transmitted to people via wildlife markets in the city of Wuhan, although the precise source of human infection has not yet been definitively established.

  • Cavalry Equipment of the Roman Army in the First Century A.D
    Originally published in Coulston, J.C. (ed.) 1988: Military Equipment and the Identity of Roman Soldiers. Proceedings of the Fourth Roman Military Equipment Conference, BAR International Series 394, Oxford CAVALRY EQUIPMENT OF THE ROMAN ARMY IN THE FIRST CENTURY A.D. M.C. Bishop INTRODUCTION The main aim of this paper is to identify and describe the elements that went together to make up Roman military horse (or riding) harness in the first century A.D.1 Closely linked with this, however, will be a consideration of just how much the archaeological evidence can tell us about the military use of mounts.2 It is to be hoped that the present work will at least serve to generate new interest in cavalry equipment and provoke discussion about the functions of its various components. There are two main source areas for the study of Roman military horse equipment: monuments depicting its use and artefacts recovered from the archaeological record. Pictorial evidence, most notably that represented by sculpture, can be used to show how the various elements of horse harness functioned as a whole. The value of such depictions is hotly debated, but it is generally true that funerary monuments tend to give a more accurate picture than official sculpture, although both categories vary widely in quality.3 Two types of tombstone, the 'Reiter' and the 'Totenmahl' are characteristic of the first century A.D. (although not exclusively so):4 these show, in the first instance, the deceased cavalryman riding his mount in combat, often with a cowering barbarian being trampled beneath the horse;5 the other type depicts the dead man enjoying a funerary banquet in the afterlife in an upper scene, whilst his horse is paraded in all its equipment in a lower.6 Totenmahl depictions usually show the horse being controlled from behind by means of long-reins and with its saddle covered by an overblanket, whilst the trooper's calo carries spare spears (javelins?).

  • Position Description
    Primate Caregiver Born Free Primate Sanctuary, Cotulla, TX 78014 Position Description: The Born Free Primate Sanctuary's aim is to provide nonhuman primates a lifelong home and a high standard of care without being needlessly intrusive. The 186-acre sanctuary, located 90 miles south of San Antonio, Texas, is home to approximately 500 monkeys, many of whom were rescued from abusive or exploitative situations. The focus of animal care is to provide conditions in which the captive populations of macaques, baboons, and vervets are allowed to live out the remainder of their lives with extensive freedom of movement, choice of food, and choice of companions, in accordance with their social nature. The sanctuary is not open to the public and we do not display animals for educational or entertainment purposes. Born Free's mission is to end the suffering of wild animals in captivity, rescue individual animals in need, protect wildlife - including endangered species - in their natural habitats, and encourage compassionate conservation globally. Inspired by the iconic film Born Free, we work locally, nationally and internationally to end wild animal cruelty and suffering, protect threatened wildlife, and keep wildlife in the wild where they rightfully belong. We are seeking a full-time caregiver to join our sanctuary team. Tasks include: 1. Participate in the daily care of all animals including, but not limited to: • Clean habitats • Empty, clean and re-fill water troughs • Prepare and distribute food • Report any animal showing signs of ill health or injury to management • Dispense medications and medical treatments • Maintain written log entries 2. Perform grounds and enclosure maintenance work as required: • Trim/mow vegetation around the Sanctuary to keep paths and other areas clear • Assist with construction projects such as building shelters, etc.

Sometimes people keep exotic animals as pets. Even if people keep “exotic animals” from a young age, they still have wild instincts.

    GBH093 North Dakota 4-H Horse Shows Bit Rule Examples and Explanations The following pages include the bit rules from the current North Dakota 4-H Horse Show Rules and Judges Guide (GBH092), some further explanations, and many examples of bits and mouthpieces. Text written in this style are the rules taken directly from the rulebook. Further explanations of the rules are in blue boxes written in text of this style. Pictures show examples of bits that are labeled as: Acceptable Acceptable as long as measurements that cannot be judged by the picture meet allowances Not allowed Please understand that this supplement gives only some examples of legal and unacceptable bits. In no way does it try to include every bit that is allowed or not allowed. The explanations should describe the intent/purpose of the rules to help draw a conclusion for bits not included. If any discrepancies occur between this and the printed rulebook text, the printed rulebook will have precedence. The supplement is designed in the same approach as the rulebook. Each division has its own section with no cross‐referencing to another. Some examples are repetitive when looking at it beginning to end. You should be able to pull out any one section and have what you need for the division. (Exceptions: As in the rulebook, a section applies to the western, ranch and speed events, then they each have separate additional sections.) Edited and revised with permission from the University of Florida for North Dakota 4-H Rules by the North Dakota 4-H Equine Advisory Committee.
