  • Arizona Wildlife Notebook
    ARIZONA WILDLIFE CONSERVATION ARIZONA WILDLIFE NOTEBOOK GARRY ROGERS Praise for Arizona Wildlife Notebook “Arizona Wildlife Notebook” by Garry Rogers is a comprehensive checklist of wildlife species existing in the State of Arizona. This notebook provides a brief description for each of eleven (11) groups of wildlife, conservation status of all extant species within that group in Arizona, alphabetical listing of species by common name, scientific names, and room for notes. “The Notebook is a statewide checklist, intended for use by wildlife watchers all over the state. As various individuals keep track of their personal observations of wildlife in their specific locality, the result will be a more selective checklist specific to that locale. Such information would be vitally useful to the State Wildlife Conservation Department, as well as to other local agencies and private wildlife watching groups. “This is a very well-documented snapshot of the status of wildlife species – from bugs to bats – in the State of Arizona. Much of it should be relevant to neighboring states, as well, with a bit of fine-tuning to accommodate additions and deletions to the list. “As a retired Wildlife Biologist, I have to say Rogers’ book is perhaps the simplest to understand, yet most comprehensive in terms of factual information, that I have ever had occasion to peruse. This book should become the default checklist for Arizona’s various state, federal and local conservation agencies, and the basis for developing accurate local inventories by private enthusiasts as well as public agencies. "Arizona Wildlife Notebook" provides a superb starting point for neighboring states who may wish to emulate Garry Rogers’ excellent handiwork.

SGMA seeks to achieve sustainability, which is defined as the absence of several undesirable results, including “depletions of interconnected surface water that have significant and unreasonable adverse impacts on beneficial users of surface water” (Water Code §10721). The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a science-based, nonprofit organization with a mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Like humans, plants and animals often rely on groundwater for survival, which is why TNC helped develop, and is now helping to implement, SGMA. Earlier this year, we launched the Groundwater Resource Hub, which is an online resource intended to help make it easier and cheaper to address environmental requirements under SGMA. As a first step in addressing when depletions might have an adverse impact, The Nature Conservancy recommends identifying the beneficial users of surface water, which include environmental users. This is a critical step, as it is impossible to define “significant and unreasonable adverse impacts” without knowing what is being impacted. To make this easy, we are providing this letter and the accompanying documents as the best available science on the freshwater species within the boundary of your groundwater sustainability agency (GSA).

  • Dragonflies Cattails
    YOUTH MAGAZINE OF THE TEXAS WILDLIFE ASSOCIATION SEPTEMBER 2020 CRITTER CONNECTIONS Dragonflies Cattails Cattails, in the family Typhaceae, are a plant commonly associated with aquatic ecosystems. They typically grow in clumps at the edge between water and land in freshwater habitats. The roots, known as rhizomes, grow in shallow water, and the rest of the plant emerges, or sticks, out of the water several feet tall depending on the species. You will recognize them by their long leaves and the brown sausage-shaped ‘cattail’ structure at the top of the stem. The flowers are not bright and showy as you see in other flowering plants; this is because they do not need to attract pollinators. Many tiny flowers grow on a cylinder-shaped stalk called a spike, which are pollinated by wind. After releasing pollen, the flowers fall off, leaving behind the recognizable brown cylindrical spike. Eventually the spike falls apart, releasing fluffy seeds which are also spread by wind. Cattails have many benefits, both as food and shelter for wildlife, and they provide resources for human use. The roots are edible, as are the young shoots, and even the young flower spikes can be boiled and eaten like corn on the cob. The roots can also be smashed to make a jelly-like medicine to put on scrapes and burns. The feathery seeds have been used as padding for bedding and pillows, and wildlife will use them to line their nests. The leaves can be woven together and are used in Native American roofs, mats, sandals and more. Even the stems have a sticky property, which can be used as a glue.
