  • Integration of in Situ and Ex Situ Data Management for Biodiversity Conservation Via the ISIS Zoological Information Management System
    Integration of In Situ and Ex Situ Data Management for Biodiversity Conservation Via the ISIS Zoological Information Management System A Dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at George Mason University Karin R Schwartz, Ph.D. George Mason University, 2014 Abstract For conservation action to mitigate biodiversity loss there is an increasing need for a “one plan approach” to develop multi-disciplinary conservation strategies that include the integration of in situ (in the wild) and ex situ (under human care in managed zoological facilities) management processes. This integration necessitates collaboration at all levels of conservation action including planning, implementation, monitoring and finally assessment to drive adaptive management processes. Each component of conservation action is fully dependent on the availability and accuracy of data in order to guide the formation of action plans and carry out management processes. The Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS ), managed by the International Species Information System (ISIS), is a centralized Web-based system that pools data on global ex situ animal populations including basic information on life history, physiology, behavior, and health to facilitate animal husbandry and breeding management programs. ZIMS offers a new opportunity to link data management processes for animals that spend a part of their lives under human care and part in their natural environment and potentially for use monitored wild populations.

  • 12 the Glass Menagerie and the Transformation of the Subject Granger Babcock
    Fall 1999 12 The Glass Menagerie and the Transformation of the Subject Granger Babcock In his Memoirs, Tennessee Williams describes a luncheon with Leonard Bernstein shortly after the New York opening of The Glass Menagerie in 1945. "One day," he writes, "Leonard Bernstein and I were both invited to lunch by a pair of very effete American queens. Bernstein was hard on them and I was embarrassed by the way he insulted them." According to Williams, Bernstein told the men that "'When the Revolution comes ... you will be stood up against a wall and shot.'" Unlike the homophobic Bernstein, Williams says he was "not interested in shooting piss-elegant queens or anyone else": "I am only interested in the discovery of a new social system."1 What seems to concern Williams most about Bernstein's remark is his desire to eradicate a masculinity that opposed the normative American model. Williams, I suspect, wanted Bernstein's identifications to be less fixated on what Williams calls "organized society" and more sympathetic to the "wild gestures" of the marginal culture. For Williams, the anarchy represented by the queens' lunch- time performance is desirable, is art, because it resists the conservatism and conformity Williams associated with the hegemonic version of American masculinity. Williams makes his position clearer in the introduction to 27 Wagons Full of Cotton: Art is only anarchy in juxtaposition with organized society. It runs counter to the sort of orderliness on which organized society apparently must be based. It is a benevolent anarchy: it must be that and if it is true art, it is.

  • Menagerie to Me / My Neighbor Be”: Exotic Animals and American Conscience, 1840-1900
    “MENAGERIE TO ME / MY NEIGHBOR BE”: EXOTIC ANIMALS AND AMERICAN CONSCIENCE, 1840-1900 Leslie Jane McAbee A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Eliza Richards Timothy Marr Matthew Taylor Ruth Salvaggio Jane Thrailkill © 2018 Leslie Jane McAbee ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Leslie McAbee: “Menagerie to me / My Neighbor be”: Exotic Animals and American Conscience, 1840-1900 (Under the direction of Eliza Richards) Throughout the nineteenth century, large numbers of living “exotic” animals—elephants, lions, and tigers—circulated throughout the U.S. in traveling menageries, circuses, and later zoos as staples of popular entertainment and natural history education. In “Menagerie to me / My Neighbor be,” I study literary representations of these displaced and sensationalized animals, offering a new contribution to Americanist animal studies in literary scholarship, which has largely attended to the cultural impact of domesticated and native creatures. The field has not yet adequately addressed the influence that representations of foreign animals had on socio-cultural discourses, such as domesticity, social reform, and white supremacy. I examine how writers enlist exoticized animals to variously advance and disrupt the human-centered foundations of hierarchical thinking that underpinned nineteenth-century tenets of civilization, particularly the belief that Western culture acts as a progressive force in a comparatively barbaric world. Both well studied and lesser-known authors, however, find “exotic” animal figures to be wily for two seemingly contradictory reasons.

  • Zoological Gardens and Aquaria and Invasive Alien Species
    Invasive alien species (IAS) have been identified as one of the most important direct drivers of biodiversity loss and change in ecosys- tem services. Many international policy instruments, legislation, ZOOLOGICAL guidelines and technical tools have been developed to address this threat. However, European policies require supplementary vol- untary measures to address key pathways of IAS introduction into GARDENS the region. This is why the Council of Europe, basing its work on the Bern Convention and with the technical support of the Inter- AND AQUARIA national Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Invasive Species Specialist Group, has drafted a series of voluntary instruments (codes of conduct and guidelines) covering a number of industries AND INVASIVE and activities potentially responsible for the introduction of alien species. The development of these instruments can play an important role in building awareness among the relevant sectors of society. ALIEN SPECIES Wild flora and fauna play an essential role in maintaining bio- logical balance and providing ecosystem services which contribute to human welfare. Loss of biodiversity, how- ever, is already undermining efforts to improve economic, social and environmental well-being in Europe and world- wide, with visible consequences on people’s quality of life. The Bern Convention, Europe’s treaty on nature conservation, works for the preservation of most of our natural heritage and promotes participation and representation in the environmental debate.
