We osteometrically examined the skulls of the black giant squirrel (Ratufa bicolor) from three mainland populations (M. Malayan Peninsula, V. South Vietnam, and B. Burma, India and North Thailand) and from two island populations (T. Tioman, and S. Sumatra Islands). The skull in the Malayan peninsula population was significantly smaller than that of the two other mainland popula- tions. It is consistent with Bergmann’s rule as shown in the gray-bellied squirrel. The two island populations did not show obvious differences in comparison with the Malayan population in many measurements.

  • 3.4 ORDER CARNIVORA Bowdich, 1821
    3.4 ORDER CARNIVORA Bowdich, 1821 3.4.1 Family Ursidae Fischer, 1817 There are eight species of bears in the world: - American Black Bear Ursus americanus - Brown Bear Ursus arctos - Polar Bear Ursus maritimus - Sloth Bear Melursus ursinus - Spectacled Bear Tremarctos ornatus - Giant Panda Ailuropoda melanoleuca - Asiatic Black Bear Ursus thibetanus - Malayan Sun Bear Helarctos malayanus The last two species are the only members of the family Ursidae known in Southeast Asia. They differ from each other by their furs and body sizes and both are threatened with extinction (Nowak, 1991; Corbet & Hill 1992). Bears have relatively undeveloped carnassial teeth; narrow premolars, crushing molars with flat crowns and large robust canines. 127 3.4.1.1 Subfamily Ursinae Fischer, 1817, Plate 3(A1 to B3) As mentioned above, two genera and two species represent the subfamily Ursinae in Southeast Asia, namely: - Malayan Sun Bear (Figure 3.8, A), Ursus/Helarctos malayanus (Raffles, 1821) with the scientific name Ursu and synonym Helarctos is distributed in the south west of China, Assam, Myanmar, Vietnam, Peninsular Malaysia, to the islands of Sumatra and Borneo. It is the smallest of all bears found in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia. - Asiatic Black Bear (Figure 3.8, B), Ursus thibetanus Cuvier, 1823 is mainly localized in the Himalayas, Afghanistan to southern China, Myanmar, northern Thailand and Indochina. It has several alternative names including Asiatic Black Bear, Himalayan Black Bear, Moon Bear and inhabits mountain forests.

They also serve as prey for many important and endangered carnivorous and make up almost 40% of the mammalian species. They are essential part in the regeneration of forests. In Arunachal Pradesh, there are three types of forest i.e. tropical, subtropical and alpine experienced with different climate. Such type of environment is favourable for multiplication of rats, squirrels and porcupines, even though, their population is decreasing day by day due to indiscriminate hunting. Most of the squirrels and porcupines are hunted for meat, furs, skin, teeth and quills. Field surveys were conducted in different districts of Arunachal Pradesh for the present review. The presence of squirrels and porcupines were observed by direct sighting with the help of binocular or by hearing calls. Information was also collected through interaction of local people and forest staffs. The major threats for rodents are consequences due to hunting for meat, shifting agriculture (Jhum), deforestation, human settlements and infrastructure development in forest areas.

They have always believed in me and never doubted that I would reach my goals. I am eternally grateful to my mentors, Dr. Jim Mead and the late Dr. Larry Agenbroad, who have shaped me as a paleontologist and have provided me to the strength and knowledge to continue to grow as a scientist. I would like to thank my colleagues from the Florida Museum of Natural History who provided insight and open discussion on my research. In particular, I would like to thank Dr. Aldo Rincon for his help in researching procyonids. I am so grateful to Dr. Anne-Claire Fabre; without her understanding of R and knowledge of 3D morphometrics this project would have been an immense struggle. I would also to thank Rachel Short for the late-night work sessions and discussions. I am extremely grateful to my advisor Dr. David Steadman for his comments, feedback, and guidance through my time here at the University of Florida. I also thank my committee, Dr. Bruce MacFadden, Dr. Jon Bloch, Dr. Elizabeth Screaton, for their feedback and encouragement.

  • Borneo, Malaysia) 2019 October 7Th-31St Lennart Verheuvel
    Tripreport Sabah (Borneo, Malaysia) 2019 October 7th-31st Lennart Verheuvel www.shutterednature.com Sabah October 7th till October 31st. This was the second part of the trip I had planned to do after my studies were finished. Initially the plan was to go to Borneo for three months, I actually have asked for advice on the forum of Mammalwatching.com for that. Later I decided to change my mind and go for South-America, even later I decided to go for a combo: first three months South-America and then three weeks in Borneo. The road to Borneo was a long and bumpy one and I also ran into some difficulties during the trip, but in the end it was all worth it. The funny thing was that literally a week before my plane left, I still wasn’t sure if I could go, so looking back I’m really glad it all worked out. I travelled by myself but I did the first thirteen days of the trip together with Duncan McNiven and Debbie Pain from England and later we did our first five nights in Deramakot with Stuart Chapman and Nick Cox. It was nice searching for mammals (and birds) with these guys and it was really cool that the four of use managed to see Clouded Leopard together on one of the last nights of Stuart and Nick. I did fly on Tawau, which is not the nearest airport if you want to go to Danum but that was because I was first supposed to go with someone else, who backed out last minute and it was too expensive to change the destination.

  • Indonesia 24 September to 15 October 2013
    Indonesia 24 September to 15 October 2013 Dave D Redfield Mammal Tour Picture: Sunda Flying Lemur (Colugo) with young by Richard White Report compiled by Richard White The story: 5 islands, 22 days and 52 mammals... A journey to a land where lizards fly, squirrels are the size of mice, civets look like otters and deer are no bigger than small annoying poodles...Indonesia! Where did this all begin...? In late June I was thinking of heading to Asia for a break. After yet another Tasmanian winter I wanted to sweat, get soaked in a tropical rain shower, get hammered by mosquitoes...I wanted to eat food with my hands (and not get stared at), wear sandals, drink cheap beer...and of course experience an amazing diversity of life. While researching some options I contacted my former employer and good friend Adam Riley from Rockjumper Birding Tours/Indri and he suggested I touch base with a client that I had arranged trips for before. The client (and now friend!) in question, Dave Redfield, has seen an aPD]LQJYDULHW\RIWKHZRUOG¶VPDPPDO species but, at that time, had yet to visit Indonesia. So, armed with a target list and a 22 day budget, I sat down and began researching and designing a tour in search of a select suit of mammal species for Dave. Time, terrain, concentration of species and cost were considered. We settled on a few days in mammal hotspots on Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi and finally Bali, in that order. %DOLZDVDOVRFKRVHQDVDJRRGSODFHWRZLQGGRZQDIWHUµURXJKLQJLW¶ though the rest of Indonesia. It is also worth mentioning that Dave, realising that seeing all the ZRUOG¶Vmammals in the wild is an impossible target, does count mammals seen in captivity; the target list of species was thus not what one might have expected (for example, a Red Spiny Mouse was a priority but Babirusa was not).

  • Indonesia Mammal Watching Trip Report
    Indonesia Mammal Watching Trip Report This is a report of the wildlife (mostly mammals) observed on a trip to Indonesia by Ian Loyd (Reef and Rainforest Tours), Lorna Watson and Steve Morgan in late June and early July 2014. We visited TanjungPuting National Park in Indonesian Borneo in the first week and then teamed up with Steve Morgan, a friend and fellow mammal enthusiast for a long stay at Way Kambas National Park in southern Sumatra. The trip was an overall success with some superb wildlife seen but we also came away slightly frustrated by the poor views of unidentified cats. For species lists see the bottom of this report. Kalimantan We flew from London Heathrow to Jakarta via Abu Dhabi on Etihadand spent a night at the FM7 Resort Hotel on arrival. The next day we flew on Trigana Air to PangkalanBuun in southern central Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo to spend four days exploring TanjungPuting National Park. Our guide Eddy was very knowledgeable, humorous and had excellent English. While exploring TanjungPuting we stayed at Rimba Eco lodge. The lodge is located in TanjungKeluang village and is ƚŚĞŽŶůLJĂĐĐŽŵŵŽĚĂƚŝŽŶŽƉƚŝŽŶŝŶƚŚĞƉĂƌŬŝĨLJŽƵĚŽŶ͛ƚǁĂŶƚƚŽƐůĞĞƉŽŶƚŚĞKlotokhouse boats. TanjungPuting TanjungPuting is the largest protected forest in central Kalimantan and covers 3,040 square km of lowland dipterocarp and peat swamp forest and is probably home to highest density (over 6000) of wild orang-utans in the world. The best wildlife viewing centres on Camp Leakey (2 hours upstream from Rimba Eco Lodge). Camp Leakey was set up in 1971 byLouis Leakey to support researchinto orang-utans and, over the years,scientists here have habituated andstudied hundreds of orang- utans.The chief researcher is BiruteGaldikas who, together with JaneGoodall and Dian Fossey, workedwith Leakey to form many of thecurrent theories on primate behaviour and biology.

  • Gharial News Letter A-W Final Backup Copy-01 Ra
    INDIA NEWSLETTER JULY - SEPTEMBER 2012 NEWSLETTER IND PANDA 2012 IND SG & CEO’S FOREWORD Dear friends, On a weekend like any other in June, I received this message that pleasantly conveyed, more than adequately, the understated excitement of its bearer - “Traced to Aligarh - nearly 400 km downstream from Hastinapur!” The message had been sent by Sanjeev Yadav, Senior Project Officer with WWF-India, who had been attempting to capture a female gharial that had swum a distance of nearly 400 km through the Ganga canal system, from Hastinapur to an area in Aligarh district. The gharial had finally been located, but after much clamour. A regular racket had been created, and yet this was a happy noise that had been raised - one that we would hope to be caused for other threatened species as well. People did not merely cooperate; they went out of their way to assist the team from WWF-India. The township of Sikandarpur extended heartwarming hospitality and both the media and the Uttar Pradesh Forest Department proved accommodating and supportive. The greatest feat however, was undertaken by the Irrigation Department that so generously offered to lower the level of water in the canal to facilitate the search. Battling the monsoon and other impediments to their pursuit, the team was able to successfully recapture and release the gharial back in Hastinapur. The cause of this transformative effect, more than the confluence of various sections of people that facilitated it, was their desire for such transformation. Nature gives us this incredible capacity - to take our weaknesses and turn them into verve, if only we so desire.

Duckworth Wildlife Conservation Society Lao Program Receipt of Ms. 15. 04. 1997 Acceptance of Ms. 14. 01. 1998 Abstract Large mammals were surveyed using direct Observation in montane Laos during April-May 1996 in lit- tle-disturbed evergreen forest in and around the Nakay-Nam Theun National Biodiversity Conserva- tion Area (NBCA). Survey focussed on one road, where low hunting pressure and excellent viewing conditions gave the truest representation of relative species Status at any Lao site yet surveyed. More large mammal species have been found there than in some entire NBCAs; the total of 15 species of car- nivore is especially noteworthy. Nocturnal contact rates (if lorises are excluded from the comparison) were the highest of any Lao site yet surveyed. Encounter rates by day were also high. Totais of nine Globally Threatened, three Data Deficient and six Nationally At Risk species are of outstanding con- servation importance. Many have large populations and some have not otherwise been seen in the field on a recent survey programme in Laos.
