  • 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.

  • Surra Importance Surra, Caused by Trypanosoma Evansi, Is One of the Most Important Diseases of Animals in Tropical and Semitropical Regions
    Surra Importance Surra, caused by Trypanosoma evansi, is one of the most important diseases of animals in tropical and semitropical regions. While surra is particularly serious in Murrina, Mal de Caderas, equids and camels, infections and clinical cases have been reported in most Derrengadera, Trypanosomosis, domesticated mammals and some wild species. T. evansi is transmitted mechanically El Debab, El Gafar, Tabourit by various tabanids and other flies, and it can readily become endemic when introduced into a new area. The morbidity and mortality rates in a population with no immunity can be high. In the early 1900s, an outbreak in Mauritius killed almost all Last Updated: September 2015 of the Equidae on the island. More recently, severe outbreaks have been reported in the Philippines, Indonesia and Vietnam. In addition to illness and deaths, surra causes economic losses from decreased productivity in working animals, reduced weight gain, decreased milk yield, reproductive losses and the cost of treatment. Etiology Surra is caused by the protozoal parasite Trypanosoma evansi. This organism belongs to the subgenus Trypanozoon and the Salivarian section of the genus Trypanosoma. Two genetic types of T. evansi, type A and type B, have been recognized. Most isolates worldwide belong to type A. Type B, which is not recognized by some diagnostic tests, has only been detected in parts of Africa as of 2015. Whether T. evansi should be considered a distinct species, separate from T. brucei, is controversial. Species Affected The principal hosts and reservoirs for T. evansi are reported to differ between regions; however, camels, equids, water buffalo and cattle are generally considered to be the major hosts among domesticated animals.

  • (Water) Buffalo in the US Meat Marketplace
    A Sneak Attack: (Water) Buffalo in the U.S. Meat Marketplace You Don’t Think So?.... Compiled by: National Bison Association 8690 Wolff Court Westminster, CO 80031 303.292.2833 [email protected] July 2019 Water Buffalo in the U.S. Market Page 1 of 20 (Page Intentionally Left Blank) Water Buffalo in the U.S. Market Page 2 of 20 Introduction The growing popularity of sustainably raised, deliciously healthy bison meat has brought profitability and economic stability to bison ranchers and marketers across the United States. In fact, the bison business has enjoyed nearly a decade of strong, profitable market prices. That stability is now under siege from a growing threat of water buffalo meat and pet food ingredients being deceptively marketed in a manner that misleads consumers into believing that they are purchasing bison. As a non-amenable species, bison is under the purview of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. (FDA). The National Bison Association in September 2018 filed a formal complaint with the FDA, citing the relevant sections of CFR 21 §101.18, and 21 CFR §102.5 which are intended to halt the marketing of mislabeled food. (See Page 7) In February, the FDA responded, writing that, while the agency “has not established a specific regulation regarding the marketing of either water buffalo or bison…we do agree that water buffalo should be labeled as water buffalo and that bison should be labels (sic) as ‘bison’ or ‘Buffalo (bison)’.” (See Page 10) The National Bison Association, with full support of the InterTribal Buffalo Council, is working with our allies in the U.S.

  • Identification of Monoclonal Antibody Reagents for Use in the Study of Immune Response in Camel and Water Buffalo
    2391 Identification of Monoclonal Antibody Reagents for Use in the Study of Immune Response in Camel and Water Buffalo Mossad, A.A.1, Elbagoury, A.R.1, Khalid, A.M.2 Waters, W.R.3, Tibary, A.4 Hamilton, M.J.4 and Davis, W.C.4 1Minufyia University, Egypt 2 Zagazig University, Egypt 3NADC- USA, 4Washington University, USA Abstract: Progress in elucidating the mechanisms regulating the immune response to infectious agents and derived vaccines in domestic species especially camels and water buffalo, has been impeded by the lack of monoclonal antibody (mAb) reagents needed to study the immune response in the species of interest. As a first step to address this problem we conducted a study to determine how many mAbs developed against leukocyte differentiation molecules (LDM) in various species recognized conserved epitopes on orthologous (identical) molecules intow or more species of Artiodactyla. Analysis of 490 monoclonal antibodies raised against leukocyte differentiation molecules (LDM) in cattle, sheep, goats, lamas, pigs, dogs and humans revealed that many epitopes have been conserved in the speices in the course of eveolution in closely related species in the suborder Ruminatia (cattle, buffalo, bison) and fewer related species (sheep and goats). Only few of the epitopes conserved in Rumintia were conserved in the pig, lama and camels. The highest level of conservation in all suborders was found with major histocompatibility complex class 1 (MHC1) and class 11 (MHC11) molecules. These findings show the potential as well as the limitations of screening existing monoclonal antibodies to investigate disease conditions. These findings show the potential as well as limitations of screening existing mAbs for mAbs useful for research in less well studied species.

ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is amending its regulations to define yak and include it among “exotic animals” eligible for voluntary inspection under 9 CFR part 352. This change is in response to a petition for rulemaking from a yak industry association, which FSIS granted in 2015. Additionally, FSIS is revising the definitions of antelope, bison, buffalo, catalo, deer, elk, reindeer, and water buffalo to make them more scientifically accurate. Moreover, FSIS is responding to comments on whether all farmed-raised species in the biological families Bovidae, Cervidae, and Camelidae, if not already subject to mandatory inspection, should be eligible for voluntary inspection, and whether any species in these families should be added to the list of amenable species requiring mandatory inspection. DATES: Effective [INSERT DATE 60 DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rachel Edelstein, Assistant Administrator, Office of Policy and Program Development by telephone at (202) 205-0495. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On June 1, 2020, FSIS proposed to amend its regulations (9 CFR 352.1) to add yak to its list of “exotic animals” eligible for voluntary inspection (85 FR 33034, June 1, 2020).
