  • Evaluating the Potential for Species Reintroductions in Canada
    Evaluating the Potential for Species Reintroductions in Canada JAY V. GEDIR, TIAN EVEREST, AND AXEL MOEHRENSCHLAGER Centre for Conservation Research, Calgary Zoo, 1300 Zoo Road NE, Calgary, AB, T2E 7V6, Canada, email [email protected] Abstract: Species reintroductions and translocations are increasingly useful conservation tools for restoring endangered populations around the world. We examine ecological and socio- political variables to assess Canada’s potential for future reintroductions. Biologically ideal species would be prolific, terrestrial, herbivorous, behaviorally simple, charismatic, easily tractable, or large enough to carry transmitters for post-release evaluations, and would have small home range requirements. Sociologically, Canada’s large geographic area, low human density, high urban population, widespread protectionist views towards wildlife, and sound economic status should favor reintroduction success. Canada has implemented legislation to safeguard species at risk and, compared to developing countries, possesses substantial funds to support reintroduction efforts. We support the reintroduction guidelines put forth by the World Conservation Union (IUCN) but realize that several challenges regarding these parameters will unfold in Canada’s future. Pressures from the rates of species loss and climate change may precipitate situations where species would need to be reintroduced into areas outside their historic range, subspecific substitutions would be necessary if taxonomically similar individuals are unavailable,

STOEBEL1*, A. SCHOENBERG2 AND W. J. STREICH1 1 Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research Berlin (IZW), Berlin, Germany 2 Federal Institute for Risk Assessment, Berlin, Germany (Accepted 27 March 2003) SUMMARY We conducted the first seroepidemiological study to evaluate the exposure of zoo animals to Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. in German zoos and wildlife parks. A total of 1487 individuals representing 148 ungulate and carnivore species belonging to 19 families were examined using a non-species dependent ELISA. Specific antibodies were detected in 154 (10.4%) animals; 168 (11.3%) sera produced borderline results. The percentage of seropositive individuals was related to species and origin (zoo), and increased with age of the animals. Sex and season did not influence seroprevalence. Examination of 600 ticks (Ixodes ricinus; caught from vegetation in the zoos) by darkfield microscopy and indirect immunofluorescence technique revealed infection rates within the range typical for Central Europe. The results substantiate that there is an infection risk for zoo animals. A differential diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis should be taken into account in case of suspicious clinical symptoms and possible contact to ticks. INTRODUCTION Spirochaetaceae causes a chronic multisystem disease with a great variety of clinical manifestations [6, 7]. Emerging infectious diseases do not only involve Lameness as a result of either arthralgia or arthritis many wildlife species as reservoirs of pathogens that is the main symptom in all domestic animal species threaten domestic animal and human health, but pose examined so far [8–13].

Yara Barros has now joined our small team as representative of the ex situ community. Yara is well positioned for this endeavor, as she is also the president of the Brazilian Zoo and Aquarium Association. Thanks to Yara we hope to be able share CBSG tools, contacts and ideas with the Brazilian Zoo and Aquarium community. Welcome Yara!
