The 2008 IUCN Red Listings of the World's Small Carnivores
The 2008 IUCN red listings of the world’s small carnivores Jan SCHIPPER¹*, Michael HOFFMANN¹, J. W. DUCKWORTH² and James CONROY³ Abstract The global conservation status of all the world’s mammals was assessed for the 2008 IUCN Red List. Of the 165 species of small carni- vores recognised during the process, two are Extinct (EX), one is Critically Endangered (CR), ten are Endangered (EN), 22 Vulnerable (VU), ten Near Threatened (NT), 15 Data Deficient (DD) and 105 Least Concern. Thus, 22% of the species for which a category was assigned other than DD were assessed as threatened (i.e. CR, EN or VU), as against 25% for mammals as a whole. Among otters, seven (58%) of the 12 species for which a category was assigned were identified as threatened. This reflects their attachment to rivers and other waterbodies, and heavy trade-driven hunting. The IUCN Red List species accounts are living documents to be updated annually, and further information to refine listings is welcome.

Understanding species 20 boundaries within this group is critical for effective conservation given that regional populations 21 or subspecies (e.g., S. p. interrupta) have experienced significant population declines. Further, 22 there may be currently unrecognized diversity within this genus as some taxa (e.g., S. 23 angustifrons) and geographic regions (e.g., Central America) never have been assessed using 24 DNA sequence data. We analyzed species limits and diversification patterns in spotted skunks 25 using multilocus nuclear (ultraconserved elements) and mitochondrial (whole mitogenomes and 26 single gene analysis) data sets from broad geographic sampling representing all currently 27 recognized species and subspecies.

2015 Nicaragua Mammal Report
Nicaragua Mammal Extravaganza, Feb 4-17, 2015 Led by Fiona Reid and Jose Gabriel Martinez, with Mike Richardson and Paul Carter. Photos by Fiona except where noted. Feb 04, Laguna del Apoyo (LA) Our trip officially started on Feb 5, but we all landed a day early, with Paul arriving in the late morning. I asked Jose to see if he could get some help setting up nets and still find time to collect me and Mike from the airport at 9 p.m. We met up with Paul and two friends of Jose’s at a location near our hotel on the Laguna just after 10 p.m. They had caught 7 species of bats, including Common Vampire and Central American Yellow Bat. Of note Paul had also seen 3 Southern Spotted Skunks, a Vesper Rat, Common Opossum and a Central Southern Spotted Skunk (Paul Carter) American Woolly Opossum (last of which obligingly stayed around for me and Mike). We were off to a great start! Feb 05, Apoyo and Montibelli (MB) We spent the morning at Apoyo, where Mantled Howlers and Variegated Squirrel are easily seen. In the afternoon we went to Montibelli Private Reserve. We located roosting Lesser White-lined Bats on a tree trunk and some Jamaican Fruit-eating Bats hidden in leaves of a Dracaena plant (we caught both these species later too). After seeing a Jamaican Fruit-eating Bat, good variety of dry forest birds stained yellow with pollen and our first Central American Agouti, we set up a few nets and caught Greater and Pale Spear-nosed Bats along with various other common species (see list).

This note describes the predation of a hooded skunk individual, Mephitis macroura, by the great horned owl, Bubo virginianus, based on video recording and photographs. Audiovisual materials were obtained as part of the camera-trap sampling of carnivorous mammals in the Barranca de Metztitlán Reserve during August–December 2016. Camera traps record the time and date of events, thus allowing an accurate recording of the interactions between the owl and the skunk individuals. Three photographs and two 10-second videos were examined. One of the videos recorded the skunk vocalization upon being attacked by the owl.

The Greeks associated them with both the sea and sun and were considered to be under the protection of the gods Poseidon and Apollo. Pinnipeds can be found in facilities around the world, as their large size and playfulness make them popular attractions. Zoologist Georges Cuvier noted during the 19th century that wild seals show considerable fondness for humans and stated that they are second only to some monkeys among wild animals in their easily tamability. Francis Galton noted in his landmark paper on domestication that seals were a spectacular example of an animal that would most likely never be domesticated despite their friendliness and desire for comfort due to the fact that they serve no practical use for humans. Some modern exhibits have rocky backgrounds with artificial haul-out sites and a pool, while others have pens with small rocky, elevated shelters where the animals can dive into their pools. More elaborate exhibits contain deep pools that can be viewed underwater with rock-mimicking cement as haul-out areas. The most common pinniped species kept in captivity is the California sea lion as it is both easy to train and adaptable. Other species popularly kept include the grey seal and harbor seal. Larger animals like walruses and Steller sea lions are much less common.

May 16, 2011 Federal Trade Commission Office of the Secretary
May 16, 2011 Federal Trade Commission Office of the Secretary, Room H–113 (Annex O) 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20580 RE: Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking under the Fur Products Labeling Act; Matter No. P074201 On behalf of the more than 11 million members and supporters of The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), I submit the following comments to be considered regarding the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) advance notice of proposed rulemaking under the federal Fur Products Labeling Act (FPLA), 16 U.S.C. § 69, et seq. The rulemaking is being proposed in response to the Truth in Fur Labeling Act (TFLA), Public Law 111–113, enacted in December 2010, which eliminates the de minimis value exemption from the FPLA, 16 U.S.C. § 69(d), and directs the FTC to initiate a review of the Fur Products Name Guide, 16 C.F.R. 301.0. Thus, the FTC indicated in its notice that it is specifically seeking comment on the Name Guide, though the agency is also generally seeking comment on its fur rules in their entirety. As discussed below, the HSUS believes that there is a continuing need for the fur rules and for more active enforcement of these rules by the FTC. The purpose of the FPLA and the fur rules is to ensure that consumers receive truthful and accurate information about the fur content of the products they are purchasing. Unfortunately, sales of unlabeled and mislabeled fur garments, and inaccurate or misleading advertising of fur garments, remain all too common occurrences in today’s marketplace.

Mammals of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula
Venkat Sankar 2018 Mammals of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula Venkat Sankar and Juan Cruzado Cortes March 24-29, 2017 I. OVERVIEW 5-night mammal watching trip to the Mexican Yucatan peninsula guided by Juan Cruzado Cortes, encompassing 2 nights at Tres Garantias (Quintana Roo), 1 night at Calakmul (Campeche), and 2 nights at Xocén (Yucatan). Highlights included Gaumer’s Mouse Opossum, Big-eared Climbing Rat, Elegant Myotis, Underwood’s Bonneted Bat, Woolly False Vampire Bat, Cozumel Golden Bat, Hairy-legged Vampire Bat, Striped Hog-nosed Skunk, and Tayra. Lowlights included frustratingly poor views of Orange-throated Bat, an un-countable glimpse of Wrinkle-faced Bat, and a roadkill Ocelot. II. SITE GUIDE, SIGHTINGS & LOGISTICS A. Tres Garantias Tres Garantias encompasses a sizable area of conserved forest managed by ejidos Caobas and Tres Garantias in far SW Quintana Roo, close to the borders with Belize and Guatemala. Managed as a refuge for numerous large mammal species, particularly Baird’s Tapir, Jaguar, White-lipped and Collared Peccaries, White-tailed Deer, Yucatan Brown and Central American Red Brockets, Paca, Ocellated Turkey, and Great Curassow, it is probably the best place in Mexico to see large mammals as you are free to walk and drive as you please, day or night and poaching is low in the core area of the reserves. Habitats are diverse, ranging from scrubby, bone dry thicket to humid tall forest. Yucatan Black Howler (Alouatta pigra) is widespread but uncommon and shy in the Southern peninsula; easy to hear, seeing it requires local knowledge. The best places to try are archaeological sites with little hunting.
