    Vol. 98: 27–39, 2012 DISEASES OF AQUATIC ORGANISMS Published February 17 doi: 10.3354/dao02418 Dis Aquat Org Oral and cloacal microflora of wild crocodiles Crocodylus acutus and C. moreletii in the Mexican Caribbean Pierre Charruau1,*, Jonathan Pérez-Flores2, José G.

We recovered 47 bacterial species (28 genera and 14 families) from all samples with 51.1% of these belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. Fourteen species (29.8%) were detected in both crocodile species and 18 (38.3%) and 15 (31.9%) species were only detected in American and Morelet’s crocodiles, respectively. We recovered 35 bacterial species from all oral samples, of which 9 (25.8%) were detected in both crocodile species. From all cloacal samples, we recovered 21 bacterial species, of which 8 (38.1%) were detected in both crocodile species. The most commonly isolated bacteria in cloacal samples were Aeromonas hydrophila and Escherichia coli, whereas in oral samples the most common bacteria were A. hydrophila and Arcanobacterium pyogenes. The bacteria isolated represent a potential threat to crocodile health during conditions of stress and a threat to human health through crocodile bites, crocodile meat consumption or carrying out activities in crocodile habitat.

  • A-Level Geography Pre-Year 12 Tasks
    A-Level Geography Pre-Year 12 tasks Geography is a very complex subject which encompasses our everyday lives. As the recent events of 2020 have shown the globalisation and connectivity of people has resulted in this year being like none other in living memory. The world has essentially shut down… The Year 12 course starts with the following two topics: Population and the Environment (Human Geography) Water and Carbon Cycles (Physical Geography) Tasks for Population and the Environment This topic looks at how the population density and distribution of people on Earth is determined by the climate, water supply and soils in each biome. Within this there are many links to the spread of diseases, levels of development and population structure. Task 1: On the internet find 2 maps to show the population distribution and density of people on Earth, then find a map to show the global biomes. For each biome get a definition of the characteristics and key locations. Using the population distribution and density maps annotate the areas on Earth where most people are found. Do this for each continent, add on any large cities you know and physical features such as deserts and mountain ranges. When you have done this use the biome map and your annotated maps to see which biomes are able to support the largest numbers of people. Can you spot a trend? Task 2: Linking into Task 1, find a population density map of Egypt, then research its population and why it has such a distinctive pattern. Task 3: To show the link between the spread of disease and the population pick 2 of the following diseases and create a timeline to show the global spread through the human population.

While it has been a challenging year for all of us, we are extremely proud to bring you these award-winning independent, ocean inspired films for you to enjoy in the comfort of your home. This year’s lineup of a record 80+ films is a testament to the dedication and passion of filmmakers around the world.
