While the perceived benefits of chopped diets include reduced food aggression, it is acknowledged that chopping food is time consuming for keepers and increases the risk of desiccation Article history: and contamination. Given the potential disadvantages of chopped diets, there is a need to evaluate Received: 23 Jun 2017 food presentation in a range of zoo-housed species. To investigate the possible effects on ring-tailed Accepted: 28 Dec 2017 coati (Nasua nasua) behaviour, meals were provided as either chopped or whole for a group housed Published online: 31 Jan 2018 at Beale Wildlife Park, UK. Effects of food presentation were monitored, with particular attention paid to aggression, allo-grooming, food manipulation and activity levels. Surprisingly, analysis revealed a significant decrease in aggression (P=0.046) and a significant increase in food manipulation behaviours (P<0.001) when whole foods were given. Levels of inactivity were not significantly affected by food presentation technique. These results suggest that chopped food may not provide the presumed behavioural benefits in coatis, and that whole food diets may in fact provide greater opportunities to express natural food manipulation behaviours.

  • Rowers' Guide to the Thames 1 Thames Tour What to See When
    Thames Tour What to see when rowing the Thames Christopher Dodd This guide was written for an International Rowing Federation (FISA) seven-day rowing tour of the Thames in 2003, starting in Godstow near Oxford and progressing downstream to Putney in London. It uses the terms ‘port’ and ‘starboard’ to describe the location of sights. As seen from the cox’s seat, ‘port’ (stroke side) is to the left of boat, ‘starboard’ (bow side) is to the right - in the direction in which the boat and the stream are moving. The River Thames, also called the Isis in the Oxford area, is important for several reasons. For centuries it was a great trading route, connecting the Thames Valley and, through the canal system, the west and midlands of England with the great port of London. It is a great source of drinking water for London, and as railways shut down transport by water, they opened the Thames Valley to Londoners for enjoyment and recreation. The modern sport of rowing was born on the Thames, and it remains a world centre. The guide was updated in 2013. Please contribute comments and corrections HERE. © Christopher Dodd Seven days from Oxford to London DAY 1 – Godstow to Clifton Hampden (27 km, 6 locks) DAY 2 - Clifton Hampden to Pangbourne (29 km, 4 locks) DAY 3 - Pangbourne to Henley (24 km, 6 locks) DAY 4 - Henley to Maidenhead (25 km, 6 locks) DAY 5 - Maidenhead to Staines (24 km, 5 locks) DAY 6 - Staines to Teddington (28 km, 6 locks) DAY 7 - Teddington to Putney (15 km) Rowers’ guide to the Thames 1 DAY 1 – Godstow to Clifton Hampden, 27 km, 6 locks The tour starts at St Edward’s school boathouse, close to Godstow lock beside the remains of Godstow Abbey.

  • 100 Paddles in England
    INTRODUCTION. This publication sets out to provide the answer to the question “where can I paddle my canoe?”, heard so often from both new club members and independent canoeists. The brief called for the waters to be easy and relatively safe for those with basic skills, to be free from problems with land owners or anglers and to be attractive journeys. No apology is offered for the varying styles included which reflect the individual contributors as much as their rivers. Neither do we apologise for the lack of maps or pictures or for the many waters that the more experienced canoeist might expect to find. This is a first edition and, if canoeists find it useful, it will encourage us to produce an expanded and possibly illustrated further guide. Let us know the name of particular rivers you would like to see included. British Waterways Board require licences for use of their waters but accept the display of British Canoe Union and Welsh Canoeing association membership stickers. Other canals and rivers may require licences in which case details are given in the text. Unlike walking, which is well catered for in England by the many thousands of miles of footpaths, canoeists have very few opportunities to practice their sport without becoming involved with problems of access. It will surprise those who are just entering their canoeing apprenticeship that the majority of rivers in this country are private and they will not be made welcome by some anglers or landowners. The BCU, over many years, have with some success negotiated agreements, which allow access to some private rivers for canoeing.

    Cover: Thao Whipping Frogs Eleanor Stobbart Paignton Zoo 20 20ANNUAL REPORT With the effects of the pandemic having wide-reaching impact through the BIAZA community, Fordingbridge have assisted wherever possible. Last April, we launched our “Home Learning Page”; a free tool specifically for BIAZA members to promote their Education and Zoo-To-You marketing opportunities to a country of children learning from home. We promoted this through our social media channels, company website and directly through our network of the thousands of schools we work with for canopy installations across the UK. We did this to drive engagement for your organisations and assist in your fundraising efforts. We would hope that many of these virtual-learners and teachers have now become physical visitors upon reopening. Fordingbridge can also help drive revenue; using our in-house design team to manufacture and install canopies for covered dining/viewing areas to negate ‘rainy day’ ticket slumps, and create statement, sustainable buildings to enhance animal welfare and visitor experience. Like you, we are passionate about what we do, striving to exceed client expectations and deliver beyond the brief. We would love to work in partnership with your attraction to provide an exciting addition for your visitors throughout the year. E: [email protected] . T: 01243 554455 .
