Our Emergency Relief team was constantly on the go, including being among the fi rst animal care agencies on the ground after the devastating earthquake in China in May, 2008. Through hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, fl oods and fi res, IFAW’s ER team not only rescued and cared for scores of animals, but played a crucial role in helping local agencies prepare for future emergencies. Our wildlife and habitat protection program was also put to the test last year, this time by political turmoil in Kenya. When post- election riots rocked the East African nation, tourism revenues suffered an immediate and drastic decline. In Tsavo National Park the tourism slump forced serious budget cuts and threatened to greatly reduce the park’s ability to protect its animal inhabitants. Fortunately, in Tsavo’s hour of great need, an emergency IFAW grant enabled the park to maintain basic wild animals rescued in emergencies; the vast 5 services, continue critical ranger patrols, and amounts of habitat preserved and protected manage human-animal confl ict. for generations to come; and the landmark anti-cruelty legislation that has shaped the IFAW has developed the foremost knowledge movement IFAW started in 1969. on marine mammal strandings, so when IFAW and the Cape Cod Stranding Network While I’m proud of all that we’ve been able offi cially merged in October 2007, it marked to accomplish together, I’m even more an opportunity to apply many years of excited about what lies ahead.

  • Amelioration of Pet Overpopulation and Abandonment Using Control of Breeding and Sale, and Compulsory Owner Liability Insurance
    animals Article Amelioration of Pet Overpopulation and Abandonment Using Control of Breeding and Sale, and Compulsory Owner Liability Insurance Eva Bernete Perdomo 1,* , Jorge E. Araña Padilla 1 and Siegfried Dewitte 2 1 University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 35017 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain; [email protected] 2 Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Overpopulation and abandonment of pets are long-standing and burgeoning concerns that involve uncontrolled breeding and selling, illegal trafficking, overpopulation, and pet- safety and well-being issues. Historical and current prevention measures for avoiding these problems, such as sanctions, taxes, or responsibility education, have failed to provide significant moderation or resolution. Globally, millions of pets are commercially and privately bred and abandoned annually, damaging biodiversity and ecosystems, and presenting road safety and public health risks, in addition to becoming victims of hardship, abuse, and illegal trafficking, especially in the case of exotic species. This article proposes a novel comprehensive management system for amelioration of overpopulation and abandonment of pets by using greater control of supply and demand of the pet market, highlighting the role of the compulsory owner liability insurance to prevent pet abandonment and all its associated costs. This system aims to act preventatively, through flexible protocols within the proposed management system to be applied to any pet and any country.

  • The Life and Times of Karola Szilvássy, Transylvanian Aristocrat and Modern Woman*
    Cristian, Réka M.. “The Life and Times of Karola Szilvássy, A Transylvanian Aristocrat and Modern Woman.” Hungarian Cultural Studies. e-Journal of the American Hungarian Educators Association, Volume 12 (2019) DOI: 10.5195/ahea.2019.359 The Life and Times of Karola Szilvássy, Transylvanian Aristocrat and Modern Woman* Réka M. Cristian Abstract: In this study Cristian surveys the life and work of Baroness Elemérné Bornemissza, née Karola Szilvássy (1876 – 1948), an internationalist Transylvanian aristocrat, primarily known as the famous literary patron of Erdélyi Helikon and lifelong muse of Count Miklós Bánffy de Losoncz, who immortalized her through the character of Adrienne Milóth in his Erdélyi trilógia [‘The Transylvanian Trilogy’]. Research on Karola Szilvássy is still scarce with little known about the life of this maverick woman, who did not comply with the norms of her society. She was an actress and film director during the silent film era, courageous nurse in the World War I, as well as unusual fashion trendsetter, gourmet cookbook writer, Africa traveler—in short, a source of inspiration for many women of her time, and after. Keywords: Karola Szilvássy, Miklós Bánffy, János Kemény, Zoltán Óváry, Transylvanian aristocracy, modern woman, suffrage, polyglot, cosmopolitan, Erdélyi Helikon Biography: Réka M. Cristian is Associate Professor, Chair of the American Studies Department, University of Szeged, and Co-chair of the university’s Inter-American Research Center. She is author of Cultural Vistas and Sites of Identity: Literature, Film and American Studies (2011), co-author (with Zoltán Dragon) of Encounters of the Filmic Kind: Guidebook to Film Theories (2008), and general editor of AMERICANA E-Journal of American Studies in Hungary, as well as its e-book division, AMERICANA eBooks.

Orihel, Rebecca A. Ledger and David Fraser Animal Welfare Program, Faculty of Land and Food Systems, The University of British Columbia, Canada Abstract Identification and management of inter-dog aggression is important for animal rescue shelters to reduce the incidence of euthanasia and ensure the safe re-homing of animals. Forty-three shelters responded to a ques- tionnaire which collected information about the management of dogs with inter-dog aggression in rescue shelters. Most shelters (33; 76.7%) admit- ted dogs reported by relinquishing owners as aggressive to other dogs. Most shelters reported inter-dog aggression as a common problem, affect- ing either 20–49 percent of dogs received (25 shelters; 58.1%) or 50 per- cent or more (7 shelters; 16.3%).
