Provisions of European Council regulation (EC) No 338/97 of 9 December 1996 on the protection of species of wild fauna and flora by regulating trade therein are in force in Latvia. Cheetah is included in Appendix A of above mentioned regulation therefore any Latvia form of commercial use (trade, sale etc.) of its specimens including live animals and any type of derivates is prohibited. /Furthermore Latvian national legislation on animal protection prohibits any trade in live specimens of Carnivora species. The cheetah is part of animals fully protected by Act No. 95-031 of 20 March 1995 laying down the conditions for the management of wildlife and its habitat. To this end, in its "Section 6 / Hunting Products": it says: Article 97: Trophies of protected animals are compulsorily handed to the service in charge of wildlife that will issue acknowledge reception, when they come from a discovery. Mali Article 101: Remains and trophies of protected animals found dead or resulting from self- defense or destruction authorized by Article 106 will be given to the nearest ranger station in exchange for a receipt; Article 102: The sale of meat from protected wild animals is prohibited.

    Ulf Leonhardt Mission Invisible A Novel About the Science of Light Science and Fiction Series Editors Mark Alpert Philip Ball Gregory Benford Michael Brotherton Victor Callaghan Amnon H Eden Nick Kanas Geoffrey Landis Rudy Rucker Dirk Schulze-Makuch Rüdiger Vaas Ulrich Walter Stephen Webb Science and Fiction – A Springer Series This collection of entertaining and thought-provoking books will appeal equally to science buffs, scientists and science-fiction fans. It was born out of the recognition that scientific discovery and the creation of plausible fictional scenarios are often two sides of the same coin. Each relies on an understanding of the way the world works, coupled with the imaginative ability to invent new or alternative explanations—and even other worlds. Authored by practicing scientists as well as writers of hard science fiction, these books explore and exploit the borderlands between accepted science and its fictional counterpart. Uncovering mutual influences, promoting fruitful interaction, narrating and analyzing fictional scenarios, together they serve as a reac- tion vessel for inspired new ideas in science, technology, and beyond. Whether fiction, fact, or forever undecidable: the Springer Series “Science and Fiction” intends to go where no one has gone before! Its largely non-technical books take several different approaches. Journey with their authors as they • Indulge in science speculation – describing intriguing, plausible yet unproven ideas; • Exploit science fiction for educational purposes and as a means of promot- ing critical thinking; • Explore the interplay of science and science fiction – throughout the his- tory of the genre and looking ahead; • Delve into related topics including, but not limited to: science as a creative process, the limits of science, interplay of literature and knowledge; • Tell fictional short stories built around well-defined scientific ideas, with a supplement summarizing the science underlying the plot.

  • Inbreeding and Fitness in Wild Ungulates
    Inbreeding and fitness in wild ungulates Tristan C. Marshall A thesis submitted to The University of Edinburgh in application for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 1998 "Nothing happens in contradiction to nature; only in contradiction to what we know of it. Dana Scully, The X Files 1997 Preface This thesis has been composed by me, is the result of my own research and contains no work done in collaboration except where stated otherwise. The text does not exceed 100,000 words. No part of this thesis has been submitted to any other university in application for a higher degree. 111 Summary Inbreeding and the effects of inbreeding on the fitness of individuals have been studied extensively for over a century. Surprisingly, there have been few studies of the fitness consequences of inbreeding in wild animal populations. In this thesis I examine inbreeding and its fitness consequences in two species of wild ungulates, red deer (Cervus elaphus) and Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx). The long term study of red deer on the Isle of Rum has included profiling of individuals at polymorphic protein and microsatellite loci. I developed a likelihood- based method for large-scale paternity inference and implemented it via the computer program CERVUS. The system allowed genetic inference of paternity with 80% confidence for 536 red deer calves. I used these data to construct pedigrees and found that 11% of calves were the offspring of matings between paternal half sibs; however most inbreeding coefficients were zero. Microsatellite-based measures of inbreeding and outbreeding, individual heterozygosity and mean d2, were calculated using data from nine microsatellite loci.

  • Arabian Oryx Returns to the Wild Richard Fitter
    Arabian Oryx Returns to the Wild Richard Fitter January 31, 1982 was a milestone in the long struggle to save Oryx leucoryx from extinction in the wild. On that day ten Arabian oryx, nine of them born and bred in the United States, were released into the open desert in Oman. The release was a triumph for Operation Oryx, launched almost 20 years earlier, in April 1962, by the Fauna Preservation Society, as it then was; in Oman it was also a day of rejoicing for the Harasis tribe, who will once again guard then- white oryx in the Jidda al Harasis, and for Sultan Qaboos bin Said, whose generous support and cooperation made the return possible. The story begins in 1959 when Lee Talbot made a survey of endangered Asian mammals, published in Oryx, May 1960, as A Look at Threatened Species. The Arabian oryx, he wrote, was reduced to between 100 and 200 animals in the extreme south of the great Rub al Khali desert in southern Arabia, where they were hunted every year, mainly by Arab princes in motor vehicles. Within a few years, he feared they would be totally exterminated. In captivity there were only a handful and the only breeding unit was at Riyadh Zoo in Saudi Arabia. The next year, in April 1961, Oryx announced: 'Very bad news has reached the Society of an attack on what we fear to be the last remaining population of the Arabian oryx. A raiding party from Qatar, on the Persian Gulf, entered the Eastern Aden Protectorate with motor vehicles in January 1961, and shot at least 28 oryx'.

  • Ten Years of Arabian Oryx Conservation Breeding in Saudi Arabia - Achievements and Regional Perspectives
    ORYX VOL 32 NO 3 JULY 1998 Ten years of Arabian oryx conservation breeding in Saudi Arabia - achievements and regional perspectives Stephane Ostrowski, Eric Bedin, Daniel M. Lenain and Abdulaziz H. Abuzinada The National Commission for Wildlife Conservation and Development was established in 1986 to oversee all wildlife conservation programmes in Saudi Arabia. The Arabian oryx Oryx leucoryx is one of the flagship species of the Saudi Arabian reintroduction policy. It has been captive-bred since 1986 at the National Wildlife Research Center near Taif. With the creation of a network of protected areas in the former distribution range of the species, attention has shifted to the release of captive-bred oryx into Mahazat as-Sayd and 'Uruq Bani Ma'arid reserves. Similar programmes carried out in other countries of the Arabian Peninsula underline the need for regional co-operation and pan-Arabic public awareness programmes, in addition to captive-breeding and reintroduction projects.
