  • EST. S 1987 Wildlife Systems, Inc
    EST. s 1987 Wildlife Systems, Inc. was founded in 1987 with a primary focus of providing a dual blend of hunting services for sportsmen seeking quality outdoor adventure, as well as providing landowners with wildlife management services, and this enterprise concept remains the same today. WSI has worked across most regions of Texas, several other states, and multiple foreign countries, and the company's ability to provide adaptive services is one of the unique features that have allowed WSI to successfully integrate into various settings, regardless of the region or resources of interest. WSI currently operates hunting programs on approximately 700,000 acres of private land, offering hunting services for a variety of game species, and hosts hunts each year for clients from over 30 states. Wildlife consulting is provided on numerous other properties which are not enrolled under a WSI hunting program. The growth and continued success of WSI is a direct funtion of a support staff who share in similar operational philosophies developed through company training protocols, striving to offer consistent quality service to our hunters and landowners. From office personnel to guides, cooks to field techs, part-time, fulltime, and seasonal, this group of 30-40 staffers represent the heartbeat of WSI. The quality of their work has been featured in many national and regional magazines, several major television networks, and have received various recognitions including being named the 2002 Dodge Outfitter of the Year, from a cast of over 400 different hunting operations in North America. Company founder and owner, Greg Simons, is a respected wildlife biologist who has been active in his professional peer field for many years, serving as an officer in Texas Chapter of The Wildlife Society and Texas Wildlife Associa­ tion.

  • Wildlife Guide How Many of These Have You Spotted in the Forest?
    FOREST OF DEAN / SAVERNAKE FOREST / SNOWDONIA Wildlife GuidE How many of these have you spotted in the forest? SPECIES FOREST OF DEAN Sheep The Forest of Dean is famous for its large population of free roaming sheep derived from many breeds and include welsh mountain, speckled faced or cheviots with the occasional kerry or ryeland. The sheep have been around for hundreds of years and are likely to continue to be part of the Forest scenery. Best time to see sheep: All year round Deer In Norman times, the Forest was protected as a games reserve where red, roe and fallow deer and wild boar were hunted. Today, it is only fallow or roe deer that can be found. Early morning or dusk is the time when you are most likely to see deer in the Forest. Best time to see Fallow deer: All year round Wild Boar Wild boar were once common in England, but were hunted to extinction at least 300 years ago. In recent years, small populations of wild boar have become established again in the wild, with the Forest of Dean's wild boar poppulation now the largest that exists in England. Boars are best spotted early morning or in the evenings in the Forest of Dean. Best time to see Wild Boar: All year round SAVERNAKE FOREST A small bird of prey, the Sparrowhawk is perfectly adpated for hunting birds in small enclosed woodlands. Listen out for the alarm calls of smaller birds as they spot a Sparrowhawk, alerting other birds in the area to the danger.

  • Review of the Distribution, Status and Conservation of Musk Deer in China

There are five species of musk deer of the genus Moschus, in China, occurring in about 17 provinces. We estimate the total numbers in China to be between 220,000 and 320,000. In some areas the populations are in decline, and some are close to extinction due to over-hunting and habitat loss or degradation, the former being the primary threat to musk deer populations. To conserve musk deer, in situ protection should be improved, and the present unsustainable forest exploitation in the range areas should be halted. Poaching of musk deer, and smuggling of musk deer products, should be prevented. Domestic use of musk should be restricted. In some areas where musk deer have become extinct or are critically endangered, ex situ protection should be introduced. Musk deer farming should be revised and developed according to biological requirements. Key words: musk deer, Moschus, conservation status, China Introduction Musk deer Moschus spp.

  • Assessement of Biodiversity and NTFP Status in BCI Project Areas
    APPENDIX 4 Assessment of Biodiversity Values in BCI project Areas Part I. Introduction of BCI project area and its biodiversity status 1.1. Physical characteristics BCI area is situated in the Priority Central Annamite Landscape ( Landscape CA1)( or Central Truong Son Landscape), it is a geomorphological entity within the Greater Truong Son Global 200 Ecoregion of the FLMEC of Greater Annamite Ecoregion in Global 200 of WWF . were provisionally delineated at the Ecoregion-based Conservation in the Forests of the Mekong Biological Assessment Workshop, held inPhnom Penh in March 2000. And Landcape CA1 will be introduced as follows: Priority Landscape CA1 is. The priority landscape encompasses the central section of the main Annamite chain, together with associated foothills to the west and east (Map 1). The boundaries of Priority Landscape CA1 were delineated according to geomorphological criteria in preference to biogeographical criteria for a number of reasons. Firstly, while the ranges of a number of taxa broadly define the priority landscape, there is insufficient congruence in their known distributions for the boundaries to be precisely delineated. Secondly, there is insufficient information available about the known distribution and habitat requirements of taxa that might be used to delineate the priority landscape. Thirdly, the concept of a geomorphologically delineated landscape is more meaningful to decision makers and donors. Finally, a geomorphologically delineated landscape is not constrained by anthropogenic changes in habitat condition and extent, and, therefore, presents a vision for the future and an objective for habitat restoration efforts. The area referred to as the Greater Truong Son in this document was considered by Vidal (1960) to comprise parts of two distinct geomorphological units: the Annamite chain, stretching from Xieng Khoang province in Lao P.D.R.

  • Reproductive Seasonality in Captive Wild Ruminants: Implications for Biogeographical Adaptation, Photoperiodic Control, and Life History
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2012 Reproductive seasonality in captive wild ruminants: implications for biogeographical adaptation, photoperiodic control, and life history Zerbe, Philipp Abstract: Zur quantitativen Beschreibung der Reproduktionsmuster wurden Daten von 110 Wildwiederkäuer- arten aus Zoos der gemässigten Zone verwendet (dabei wurde die Anzahl Tage, an denen 80% aller Geburten stattfanden, als Geburtenpeak-Breite [BPB] definiert). Diese Muster wurden mit verschiede- nen biologischen Charakteristika verknüpft und mit denen von freilebenden Tieren verglichen. Der Bre- itengrad des natürlichen Verbreitungsgebietes korreliert stark mit dem in Menschenobhut beobachteten BPB. Nur 11% der Spezies wechselten ihr reproduktives Muster zwischen Wildnis und Gefangenschaft, wobei für saisonale Spezies die errechnete Tageslichtlänge zum Zeitpunkt der Konzeption für freilebende und in Menschenobhut gehaltene Populationen gleich war. Reproduktive Saisonalität erklärt zusätzliche Varianzen im Verhältnis von Körpergewicht und Tragzeit, wobei saisonalere Spezies für ihr Körpergewicht eine kürzere Tragzeit aufweisen. Rückschliessend ist festzuhalten, dass Photoperiodik, speziell die abso- lute Tageslichtlänge, genetisch fixierter Auslöser für die Fortpflanzung ist, und dass die Plastizität der Tragzeit unterstützend auf die erfolgreiche Verbreitung der Wiederkäuer in höheren Breitengraden wirkte. A dataset on 110 wild ruminant species kept in captivity in temperate-zone zoos was used to describe their reproductive patterns quantitatively (determining the birth peak breadth BPB as the number of days in which 80% of all births occur); then this pattern was linked to various biological characteristics, and compared with free-ranging animals. Globally, latitude of natural origin highly correlates with BPB observed in captivity, with species being more seasonal originating from higher latitudes.

Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, 55608-680 Vitoria de Santo Antao — PE, Brazil Abstract The small red brocket deer Mazama bororo is one of the most endangered deer in the Neotropics. The great morphological similarities with three other sympatric brocket deer species, coupled with the fact that they inhabit densely forested habitats complicate detection and prevent the use of traditional methodologies for accurate identification of species. The ability to determine the presence of this endangered species in an area is crucial for estimating its distribution range, and is critical for establishing conservation management strategies. Here we describe a fast and reliable noninvasive genetic method for species identification of Mazama species from faeces.

The long fibroelastic penis lacks a prominent glans and is coiled at its free end to form two and one-half turns. Near the tight coils of the penis, on the right ventrolateral aspect, lies a V-shaped ventral process. The scrotum is prominent, unpigmented, and devoid of hair and is attached close to the body, high in the perineal region. The ovoid, obliquely oriented testes carry a large cauda and caput epididymis. Accessory genital glands consist of paired, lobulated, club-shaped vesic­ ular glands, and a pair of ovoid bulbourethral glands. A well-defined prostate gland was not observed on the surface of the pelvic urethra. Many features of the male genital organs of T. javanicus are pleisomorphic, being retained from suiod ancestors of the Artiodactyla.
