Accruals Future additions are expected. Immediate Source of Acquisition The Earth Island Institute Records were given to the Bancroft Library by the Earth Island Institute's executive directors, John Knox and David Phillips, in 2009 and 2011. Organizational History Based in Berkeley, California, Earth Island Institute is an international nonprofit conservation group established by noted environmentalist David R. Brower. The organization serves as an incubator supporting numerous ecological and social justice projects working to conserve, protect and restore the environment. Earth Island Institute was founded in 1982, opened their first office in San Francisco in 1986, and has fostered hundreds of local and internationally focused environmental projects including Baikal Watch, Bay Area Wilderness Training, Borneo Project, the Brower Fund, International Marine Mammal Project, Restore Hetch Hetchy, Sacred Land Film Project, the Sea Turtle Restoration Project and Transportation Involves Everyone (T.I.E.). The roster of Earth Island Institute projects changes from year to year as some projects are completed, added or otherwise evolve. Brower served as Chairman of the Board of Directors from its founding until his death in 2000. John Knox and David Phillips served in leadership roles as Co-Executive Directors over the time period that these records span. Phillips also serves as director of the International Marine Mammal Project, worked extensively to pass dolphin conservation legislation and helped to establish and lead the Free Willy Keiko Foundation, along with Mark Berman. Berman served as Director to International Marine Mammal Project's Dolphin-Safe Tuna Monitoring Program during much of the period these materials cover, campaigned against the practice of animal captivity in theme parks and was the force behind passing much of the early dolphin protection legislation and campaigns against dolphin slaughter in Taiji, Japan. The International Marine Mammal Project is a Berkeley, California based program of the Earth Island Institute founded in 1982. The International Marine Mammal Project directs a number of campaigns to halt the practice of dolphin and whale captures and killings and to free marine mammals held in captivity in aquariums, theme parks and other facilties around the world. In the late 1980s, the International Marine Mammal Project launched an immensely successful campaign to place pressure on the commercial tuna fishing industry to cease the practice of purse seine net (drift net) tuna fishing because of the extremely high instances of dolphin mortality associated with that type of fishing. The Free Willy Keiko Foundation, founded in 1994, is one of the largest and most well-known programs of the International Marine Mammal Project. It was established for the purpose of arranging the rehabilitation and release of Keiko, the orca "killer whale" used in the making of the "Free Willy" film produced by Warner Bros.

  • Dear Teacher: During the What About Whales
    Dear Teacher: During the What About Whales assembly program one of our education staff members will introduce students to several whale and dolphin species found in Pacific waters. Using a PowerPoint presentation, life-sized inflatable whales, bones, teeth and baleen, students will learn characteristics of marine mammals and understand the differences between toothed and baleen whales. Before your assembly program: Ask students to list the characteristics of mammals and give examples. Compare the living conditions of a marine mammal with those of a terrestrial mammal. Where do they sleep? How do they get their food? What do they eat? What environmental conditions must they be adapted to? Compare and contrast humans and whales in the Where Do Whales Fit In? activity. Conduct the Measuring Whales activity. Using a tape measure, have your students measure out the length of each animal. After your assembly program: Conduct the Where Do Whales Fit In? activity again to see if students’ thing of additional classification characteristics. Conduct the The Wonder of Blubber activity to discuss one of many whale adaptations for life in the ocean. Lead a classroom discussion using the enclosed Dilemmas card activity. Review the difference between endangered and threatened species with your class. Several species of whales (sei, fin, sperm, blue, humpback and right) are currently listed as endangered in the state of Oregon. Ask students to consider what actions they can take to prevent further loss of these species. Participating in this program and using the pre and post curriculum will help your students meet Oregon science standards and Ocean Literacy Principles.

Once shot at by fishermen as a dangerous pest, the orca is now the star performer in theme park shows. But both these images are one-dimensional, a disservice to a species that may be second only to human beings when it comes to behavioral, linguistic, and ecological diversity and complexity. Orcas are intelligent and family-oriented. They are long-lived and self- aware. They are socially complex, with cultural traditions. They are the largest animal, and by far the largest predator, held in captivity.

  • Summary Report of Keiko Evaluation Panel
    Summary Report of Evaluation Panel Convened to Assess the Health of Keiko January 28, 1998 Panel Members: Dr. James McBain, Sea World, Inc. Dr. Al Smith, Oregon State University Dr. Jeffery Stott, University of California at Davis Dr. Joseph Geraci, National Aquarium in Baltimore Mr. Bud Krames, Dolphin Quest Dr. Barbara Kohn, USDA, APHIS, AC - Facilitator Other Contributors: Dr. Isis Johnson, USDA, APHIS, AC Dr. Randy Ridenour, USDA, APHIS, AC This independent evaluation was done with the full backing and support of the Free Willy Keiko Foundation. Foundation liaisons were Mr. Joseph Gaskins, and Mr. Robert Ratliffe. The Panel wishes to thank the staff at the Free Willy Keiko Foundation and the Oregon Coast Aquarium for their cooperation with this evaluation. The Panel was welcomed with open arms. We wish to thank Dr. Lanny Cornell for his cooperation. Keiko, a male killer whale, Orcinus orca, was transported to the United States and housed at a newly built facility within the Oregon Coast Aquarium (OCA) in January 1 1996. Since that time the animal has been under the care of the OCA and the Free Willy Keiko Foundation (FWKF). Due to the history and popularity of the whale, his health and well being have been subjected to a high degree of public and media scrutiny. In August 1997, after a change in personnel han- dling the day-to day care of Keiko and after conflicting reports of his health status,APHIS was asked to facilitate the formation of an independent panel of marine mammal experts who would assess the current health status of Keiko.

ISBN: 978-91-977757-6-2 This PhD project explores contemporary Western human relationships with animals through a ‘relational’ art practice. It centres on three art projects produced by Snæbjörnsdóttir/Wilson – nanoq: flat out and bluesome; (a)fly; and seal – all utilize lens-based media and installations. Discourses on how humans construct their relationship with animals are central to all three projects. The first one looks at polar bears, the second at pets, and the third at seals, in a variety of different sites within clearly defined contexts and geographical locations. The thesis explores the visual art methodologies employed in the projects, tracing in turn their relationship to writings about human-animal relations.

  • Helping Protect the Health of Keiko, the Killer Whale Who Starred in the Movie
    Inventory No: 6BW-9911C Title: Protecting Keiko and Oregon Coast Aquarium Oregon Coast Aquarium, Conkling, Fiskum and McCormick, Inc., 1999, 2pgs Summary: With signs that Keiko's health may be suffering under the care of the Foundation, the Oregon Coast Aquarium began a campaign to retain control of the care of the whale. Full Text: OVERVIEW Until July 1, 1997, Aquarium staff was responsible for Keiko's rehabilitation, which began 18 months before when the star of the movie "Free Willy" was transported from a small, shabby pool in Mexico. That ended when the Foundation took sweeping measures to ban Aquarium staff access to Keiko. Soon concern and anger festered among staff. They reported seeing signs that Keiko was ill and confronted the Aquarium's board for not taking back control of the whale. When journalists found out about it, the Aquarium hired Conkling Fiskum & McCormick (CFM) to manage the crisis. CFM's transition strategy focused on the Aquarium's core mission and guided the organization toward a future without Keiko. RESEARCH • Quantitative – We reviewed the results of an annual statistically valid poll of visitors to the Aquarium. In 1997, a total of 1,510 visitors were surveyed. The poll found: 97 percent of respondents rated the Aquarium excellent or good; 77 percent said the Keiko exhibit was the reason they visited; and when asked to identify the exhibit they enjoyed the most, 55 percent said it was the Keiko exhibit, nearly five times the next most-enjoyed exhibit. • Qualitative – We reviewed the findings of The Oregon Coast Aquarium Capital Campaign Market Research Report, developed by Thomas D.

  • Evaluating the Fatty Acid Signature Technique for Studies of Diet Composition in Piscivorous Waterbirds
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Anne Mary Myers for the degree of Master of Science in Wildlife Science presented on March 5, 2007. Title: Evaluating the Fatty Acid Signature Technique for Studies of Diet Composition in Piscivorous Waterbirds. Abstract approved: ________________________________________________________________________ Daniel D. Roby This research was designed to evaluate the Fatty Acid Signature (FAS) technique as a non-lethal alternative to more traditional, and sometimes destructive, methods of studying the diet composition of piscivorous birds. Specifically we tested the technique with Caspian terns (Hydroprogne caspia) which currently nest in large numbers in the Columbia River estuary and are known to consume juvenile salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. From captive feeding trials conducted with Caspian tern chicks, we determined that FASs of the birds reflected differences in their diets. After 20 days of being fed consistently mixed or monotypic diets of two fish types, chicks displayed different adipose tissue FASs between all 4 diet treatments. When diets were changed, adipose tissue FASs reflected the shift in diet treatments within two weeks. Fatty acid (FA)- specific calibration coefficients (FA level in the consumer divided by FA level in the food) were calculated for Caspian terns fed monotypic diets for 34 days; some calibration coefficients varied in association with diet and age of the terns, and also differed between terns and common murres (Uria aalge), whose calibration coefficients were measured in a separate study. Variation in FA-specific calibration coefficients may be problematic for obtaining accurate estimates of diet composition in piscivorous birds using the Quantitative Fatty Acid Signature (QFASA) technique.
