    Vocal Recruitment in Dwarf Mongooses (Helogale parvula) Janneke Rubow Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Faculty of Science at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Michael I. Cherry Co-supervisor: Dr. Lynda L.

Janneke Rubow, March 2017 Copyright © 2017 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract Vocal communication is important in social vertebrates, particularly those for whom dense vegetation obscures visual signals. Vocal signals often convey secondary information to facilitate rapid and appropriate responses. This function is vital in long-distance communication. The long-distance recruitment vocalisations of dwarf mongooses (Helogale parvula) provide an ideal opportunity to study informative cues in acoustic communication. This study examined the information conveyed by two recruitment calls given in snake encounter and isolation contexts, and whether dwarf mongooses are able to respond differently on the basis of these cues. Vocalisations were collected opportunistically from four wild groups of dwarf mongooses. The acoustic parameters of recruitment calls were then analysed for distinction between contexts within recruitment calls in general, distinction within isolation calls between groups, sexes and individuals, and the individuality of recruitment calls in comparison to dwarf mongoose contact calls.

  • Chacoan Peccary
    Chacoan Peccary Chacoan Peccary Catagonus wagneri conservation strategy Mariana Altrichter1,2, Arnaud Desbiez3, Harald Beck1,4, Alberto Yanosky5, Juan Campos6 1chairs IUCN Peccary Specialist Group, 2Prescott College, 3Royal Zoological Society of Scotland and IUCN SSC CBSG Brazil, 4Towson University, 5Guyra Paraguay, 6Tagua Project field coordinator, Paraguay Summary The Chacoan peccary (Catagonus wagneri), an endemic species of the Gran Chaco ecoregion, is endangered of extinction due mainly to habitat loss and hunting. The only conservation plan for the species was written in 1993. Because the situation continues deteriorating, and the rate of deforestation in the region is currently among the highest in the world, the IUCN SSC Peccary Specialist group saw the need to develop a new conservation strategy. A workshop was held in Paraguay, in March 2016, with representatives of different sectors and range countries. This paper presents a summary of the problems, threats and actions identified by the participants. The other two results of the workshop, a species distribution and population viability modeling, are presented separately in this same newsletter issue. Introduction The Chacoan peccary (Catagonus wagneri) or Taguá, as it is called in Paraguay, is an endemic and endangered species that inhabits the thorn forests of the Gran Chaco of Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina. The Gran Chaco is the second largest eco­region in South America after the Amazonia. The species is listed as endangered by the IUCN Red List and in CITES I Appendix (IUCN 2016). In 1993, the entire Chacoan peccary population was estimated to be less than 5000 individuals (Taber, 1991 et al. 1993, 1994) and it has been declining since then (Altrichter & Boaglio, 2004).

  • Social Mongoose Vocal Communication: Insights Into the Emergence of Linguistic Combinatoriality
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2017 Social Mongoose Vocal Communication: Insights into the Emergence of Linguistic Combinatoriality Collier, Katie Abstract: Duality of patterning, language’s ability to combine sounds on two levels, phonology and syntax, is considered one of human language’s defining features, yet relatively little is known about its origins. One way to investigate this is to take a comparative approach, contrasting combinatoriality in animal vocal communication systems with phonology and syntax in human language. In my the- sis, I took a comparative approach to the evolution of combinatoriality, carrying out both theoretical and empirical research. In the theoretical domain, I identified some prevalent misunderstandings in re- search on the emergence of combinatoriality that have propagated across disciplines. To address these misconceptions, I re-analysed existing examples of animal call combinations implementing insights from linguistics. Specifically, I showed that syntax-like combinations are more widespread in animal commu- nication than phonology-like sequences, which, combined with the absence of phonology in some human languages, suggested that syntax may have evolved before phonology. Building on this theoretical work, I empirically explored call combinations in two species of social mongooses. I first investigated social call combinations in meerkats (Suricata suricatta), demonstrating that call combinations represented a non-negligible component of the meerkat vocal communication system and could be used flexibly across various social contexts. Furthermore, I discussed a variety of mechanisms by which these combinations could be produced. Second, I considered call combinations in predation contexts.
