  • Goitered Gazelle
    1 of 7 Proposal II / 14 PROPOSAL FOR INCLUSION OF SPECIES ON THE APPENDICES OF THE CONVENTION ON THE CONSERVATION OF MIGRATORY SPECIES OF WILD ANIMALS A. PROPOSAL: Inclusion of the Mongolian gazelle Procapra gutturosa to the CMS Convention’s Appendix II B. PROPONENT: Mongolia C. SUPPORTING STATEMENT 1. Taxon 1.1. Classis: Mammalia 1.2. Ordo: Artiodactila 1.3. Familia: Bovidae 1.4. Subfamiliae: Gazellinae 1.5. Genus: Procapra 1.6. Species: Procapra gutturosa Pallas, 1777 1.7. Common names: English: Mongolian or White-tailed gazelle French: German: Mongolei-Gazelle Russian: Dzeren or Zobastaya gazel’ Spanish: Mongolian: Tsagaan dzeer 2. Biological data 2.1. Distribution At the beginning of XX century, Mongolian gazelles were noted around the north-eastern border of Kazakhstan in the Ili Basin and Irtish Valley (Antipin 1941), but they later dissappeared there completely (Afanasiev et al., 1953, cited in Bekenov et al. 2001). Mongolian gazelles were formerly found at three localities in Russian Federation along the border with Mongolia: the Chuya or Chuiiskaya steppes of the Kosh-Agach Region in the Altai; the southern part of Tuva Autonomous Republic south of the Tannu-Ula Range and the northern edge of the Uvs Nuur Basin; and southeast Transbaikalia, on the steppes between the rivers Onon and Arguni, penetrating north to about 500 30’ (Heptner et al. 1961, cited in Zhirnov 2001). They now only occur in very small numbers as sporadic visitors to one of these localities, the steppes of southeastern Transbaicalia (Zhirnov 2001, Lhagvasuren and Milner-Gulland, 1997). Former distribution of Mongolian gazelle in China extended through seven provinces of northern and northeastern China: Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Hobei, Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, and Jilin (Jiang and Sung 2001).

  • Bison Literature Review Biology
    Bison Literature Review Ben Baldwin and Kody Menghini The purpose of this document is to compare the biology, ecology and basic behavior of cattle and bison for a management context. The literature related to bison is extensive and broad in scope covering the full continuum of domestication. The information incorporated in this review is focused on bison in more or less “wild” or free-ranging situations i.e.., not bison in close confinement or commercial production. While the scientific literature provides a solid basis for much of the basic biology and ecology, there is a wealth of information related to management implications and guidelines that is not captured. Much of the current information related to bison management, behavior (especially social organization) and practical knowledge is available through local experts, current research that has yet to be published, or popular literature. These sources, while harder to find and usually more localized in scope, provide crucial information pertaining to bison management. Biology Diet Composition Bison evolutional history provides the basis for many of the differences between bison and cattle. Bison due to their evolution in North America ecosystems are better adapted than introduced cattle, especially in grass dominated systems such as prairies. Many of these areas historically had relatively low quality forage. Bison are capable of more efficient digestion of low-quality forage then cattle (Peden et al. 1973; Plumb and Dodd 1993). Peden et al. (1973) also found that bison could consume greater quantities of low protein and poor quality forage then cattle. Bison and cattle have significant dietary overlap, but there are slight differences as well.

  • The Eastern Cape –
    The Eastern Cape – Revisited By Jeff Belongia A return to South Africa’s Eastern Cape was inevitable – the idea already firmly planted in my mind since my first visit in 1985. Africa, in general, has a wonderful yet strange control over the soul, and many writers have tried to express the reasoning behind it. I note this captivation and recognize the allure, and am too weak to resist. For me, Africa is what dreams are made of – and I dream of it daily. Dr. Martin Luther King was wise when he chose the phrase, “I have a dream.” He could have said, “I have a strategic plan.” Not quite the same effect! People follow their dreams. As parents we should spend more time teaching our children to dream, and to dream big. There is no Standard Operating Procedure to get through the tough times in life. Strength and discipline are measured by the depth and breadth of our dreams and not by strategic planning! The Catholic nuns at Saint Peter’s grade school first noted my talents. And they all told me to stop daydreaming. But I’ve never been able to totally conquer that urge – I dream continually of the romance of Africa, including the Eastern Cape. The Eastern Cape is a special place with a wide variety of antelope – especially those ‘pygmy’ species found nowhere else on the continent: Cape grysbok, blue duiker, Vaal rhebok, steenbok, grey duiker, suni, and oribi. Still not impressed? Add Cape bushbuck, mountain reedbuck, blesbok, nyala, bontebok, three colour phases of the Cape springbok, and great hunting for small cats such as caracal and serval.

  • The Royal Elephant of India
    The Royal Elephant of India A Mixed Media Social Justice & Eco-Justice Art Education Project Artist Piya Sharma Inner City Angels Inspiration The Blind Men and the Elephant ~ A Picture of Relativism and Tolerance The Blind Men and the Elephant is a famous Indian fable of six blind sojourners that come across different parts of an elephant in their life journeys. In turn, each blind man creates his own version of reality from that limited experience and perspective. In philosophy departments throughout the world, the Blind Men and the Elephant has become the poster child for moral relativism and religious tolerance. Holi ~ The Indian Festival of Colours In Indian Mythology, devas (gods) and asuras (demons) stirred the ocean in the hopes that it would bring about their immortality. Lo and behold, this stirring caused nine jewels, also known as the navratnas, to surface from the ocean. One of these jewels was an elephant. Since then, the elephant has been regarded as a sacred and precious animal. The Elephant Festival is a unique event held annually in Jaipur, the capital of the north Indian state of Rajasthan. Groomed to perfection, glittering in gold, row upon row of elephants catwalk before an enthralled audience. The elephants move gracefully in procession, run races, play the regal game of polo, and finally participate in the spring festival of Holi. It is festival time for the elephants. The Ivory Trade and Elephant Endangerment Ivory comes from varied species of animals including elephants. The ivory trade is illegal on an international scale. It is illegal to poach the ivory from the elephant tusks (this results in the death of the elephant) and it is illegal to buy and sell the trinkets and jewellery made from the ivory.
