  • Activity Budget and Spatial Location of Captive Western Lowland Gorillas (Gorilla Gorilla)
    0 1 35 2 3 Activity budget and spatial location of captive Western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla) Amanda Cheang and Gary Wigman Factors which affect the behavior of captive western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla) has been a subject of concern. There have been attempts at making the exhibit of captive gorillas more naturalistic, but zoos still differ from the natural environment with regards to space restriction and structures available. This study investigated the effect of exhibit structure type and the gorillas’ movement and interaction on the activity budget and spatial location of the four captive western lowland gorillas in the Memphis Zoo. Scan sampling was conducted to record the behavior and locations of the gorillas in the exhibit. Any social interaction, initiation of movement and following, and aggression were recorded using behavioral sampling. All four gorillas spent a larger percentage of scans out in the exhibit than in the indoor enclosure. The most common behavior for the four gorillas was resting. The females differed in the percent of initiation of movement (from 13.9% to 47.2%, not including the male). Two female gorillas were found to have a difference in the frequency of time spent in the open area versus in areas close to walls, structures and trees, spending more time in the latter. When looking at the location used for resting, two gorillas spent a larger percentage of scans resting in areas close to walls, structures and trees than in the open. The other two gorillas had no difference in the location used for resting. The results of this study provide insight into the effect of exhibit structures on the spatial location and activity of captive gorillas in an exhibit.

    State of the Waters: Cape Cod : 2020 Cape Cod Water Health Report, Action Plan and Atlas of Water Restoration Needs and Solutions State of the Waters: Cape Cod 2020 Cape Cod Water Health Report and Action Plan Association to Preserve Cape Cod Website: https://capecodwaters.org July 28, 2020 Prepared by: Andrew Gottlieb, Jo Ann Muramoto, Ph.D., Jordanne Feldman, Kristin Andres, Don Keeran and Kevin Johnson 1. Introduction The State of the Waters: Cape Cod is an annual assessment of the Cape’s water quality, designed to help you understand the water quality problems that we face and the actions that are needed to address these problems. The Association to Preserve Cape Cod (APCC) launched this project in 2019 in order to answer the question: “How healthy are Cape Cod’s waters?” This website is the place to find out about the Cape’s water quality and what can be done to address water pollution and achieve clean water. For this multi-year project, APCC collected existing data on water quality on Cape Cod for the purpose of determining the health of Cape Cod’s waters. APCC evaluated water quality in coastal waters (saltwater), freshwater ponds and lakes, and public drinking water supplies. APCC used existing methods to score water quality and used the scores to distinguish between degraded surface waters where immediate action is needed to improve water quality vs. surface waters with acceptable quality where ongoing protection is needed to avoid any decline in quality. The results are summarized in this annual water health report. To guide public action, APCC prepared a Water Action Plan that contains recommendations for changes in policies, actions, and regulations to improve and protect our waters.

  • Proposed Infrastructure Is Outside of All Flood Zones. While It Appears
    proposed infrastructure is outside of all flood zones. While it appears that the existing New Seabury wastewater treatment plant and Site 7 discharge location are outside the current 1% and 0.2% flood zones (i.e., 100 and 500-year floods, respectively), the Town should evaluate the flood risk given the expected sea level rise over the design life of the proposed structures. In addition, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has just completed a model of how groundwater will migrate upward as sea level rises on Cape Cod. We encourage the Town to use the results of this model to evaluate the long-term (20, 40, 60-year) viability of proposed and existing treated wastewater discharge sites and to plan for and acquire any necessary additional discharge sites as the Town moves toward build-out and as rising groundwater affects existing sites. Bivalve Propagation as a Nutrient Remediation Strategy A major component of the Town’s proposed nutrient remediation plan is to remove nitrogen from watersheds via bivalve propagation. While the Town provides some estimate of the ability of bivalves to remove nitrogen in various watersheds (e.g., Tables ES-1 and 5-16), the assumption that littlenecks contain 60 g of nitrogen and that oysters contain 100 g of nitrogen (see Notes at the bottom of ES-1) appears to be significantly higher than published estimates. For example, the January 2014 Woods Hole Sea Grant Program Marine Extension Bulletin described Cape Cod quahogs (littlenecks) as containing 0.22 g of nitrogen on average and Cape Cod oysters as containing 0.28 g nitrogen on average.1 Using the Woods Hole Sea Grant Program values to revise the values in Table 5-16, 5 million oysters have the potential to remediate 1.4 metric tons of nitrogen (only 28% of the Mashpee River Watershed load, not 50% as stated in the DEIR) and 4.87 million quahogs have the potential to remediate 1.07 metric tons of nitrogen (only 71% of the Popponesset Bay Watershed load, not 100% as stated in the DEIR).

  • E. Fisheries and Wildlife
    E. Fisheries and Wildlife Until recent decades, the vast majority of Mashpee’s territory was the domain not of man, but of beast. Our woods were only occasionally broken by a roadway, or a few homes, or a farmer’s fields. The hunting was good. Our clear lakes were famous for their fishing. Our streams flowed clean to pristine coastal bays teeming with fish and shellfish that helped feed and support many families. Much has changed with the explosive development of the last fifty years, and much of our wildlife has disappeared along with the natural habitat that supported it. However, much remains for our enjoyment and safekeeping. In this section we will look at Mashpee’s fish and shellfish, its mammals, birds and insects, important wildlife movement corridors and those species living in our town which are among the last of their kind. 1. Finfish Mashpee hosts four types of fin fisheries: fresh water ponds, rivers and streams, estuaries and coastal ponds and the open ocean. Our four large ponds provide some of the best fishing in the state. 203-acre Ashumet Pond, 317- acre Johns Pond and 729-acre Mashpee-Wakeby Pond are all cold water fisheries stocked with brown, brook and rainbow trout. In the last century, such famous anglers as Daniel Webster, President Grover Cleveland and the famous actor Joseph Jefferson looked forward to their fishing expeditions to Mashpee, while local residents looked forward to the income provided serving as guides to those and other wealthy gentlemen. Ashumet and Johns Ponds are also noted for their smallmouth bass, while Mashpee-Wakeby provides not only the smallmouth, but also chain pickerel, white perch and yellow perch.
