That the Exotic Animal By-law No. 95-212, as amended, be further amended to: 1) Identify certain species of non-venomous snakes and all others larger than three metres (3m) as prohibited for the purposes of the By-law; 2) Identify reptiles of the order Crocodylia, including but not limited to alligator, caimen and crocodile as prohibited for the purposes of the By-law; 3) Identify any animal that produces poison or venom that is medically significant to humans as prohibited for the purposes of the By-law; and 4) Address certain housekeeping updates; and That the City Solicitor be directed to apply for the approval of the proposed set fine; and That By-law No. 95-212, as amended, be then consolidated for the purpose of publishing on the City’s website and for use by the Lincoln County Humane Society; and That the Office of the City Clerk be directed to make the necessary notifications; and Further, that the City Solicitor be directed to prepare the necessary by-law. FORTHWITH Summary Recent events have precipitated all levels of government to reevaluate the regulation of exotic animals, particularly large, non-native snakes. Following the public input, staff and the Lincoln County Humane Society (LCHS) is supportive of an amendment to the By-law that prohibits certain species of non- Page 1 of 3 venomous snakes and all others that reach an adult length of greater than three metres, members of the order Crocodylia, and any animal that produces poison or venom harmful to humans or livestock. Background As a result of a motion made by Councillor Kushner on August 12, 2013, staff were directed to report to Council with respect to the City’s current Exotic Animal By-law, being By-law No. 95-212, as amended, and the efforts of the provincial and federal governments in this regard. Further to the report from Legal Services dated August 27, 2013, which outlined the recommendations to amend the by-law, staff were directed to specifically address the inclusion of alligators in those amendments. This information was provided in a report from Legal Services dated September 10, 2013. At the public meeting held on September 23, 2013, regarding the proposed amendments, deputations were made regarding the appropriateness of the recommendations and Councillor Siscoe requested further information regarding the information presented and specifically regarding the by-laws dealing with exotic animals in Toronto and Winnipeg. Report Health, Safety and Well-being of Residents and the Environment The reports from Legal Services dated January 9, 2013 and August 27, 2013, outline the research conducted into regulation of exotic animals in other municipalities and the rational for amending the City’s By-law 95-212, as amended. As discussed in those reports, staff originally recommended prohibiting large (greater than two metres) non- venomous snakes and any animal that produces poison that is harmful to humans and livestock. The update report from Legal Services dated September 10, 2013, recommended including members of the order Crocodylia to the prohibited list. Deputations The common thread amongst the members of the public who spoke about the proposed regulations was that the proposed two metre standard would capture more snakes than were dangerous. Two different standards were proposed by those who presented. The first being all snakes larger than three metres and lizards larger than two metres and the second being a specific list of snakes that should be prohibited automatically and then all other snakes larger three metres. The City of Toronto by-law currently reflects the first option discussed above, all snakes larger than three metres and lizards larger than two metres are prohibited. The relevant sections of the Toronto By-law are attached as Appendix 1 to this report. Page 2 of 3 The City of Winnipeg by-law was passed in July of 2013. This By-law is consistent with the CanHerp recommendation and PIJAC Canada recommendation to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, which both reflect the second option, a list of prohibited species in addition to a general three metre ban on all other snakes larger than three metres. The relevant section of the Winnipeg By-law / PIJAC / CanHerp recommendation is attached as Appendix 2 to this report. The LCHS was consulted in the preparation of this report and supports the revised amendments proposed and the set fine amount. Financial Implications There are no financial implications; our current arrangement with the LCHS covers complaints under this By-law, as amended as would any future arrangements. Conclusion Recent events have highlighted safety concerns regarding large snakes and the subsequent review of the City’s Exotic Animal By-law identified additional amendments that are necessary to address safety concerns regarding certain species of snakes, large snakes, Crocodylia and any other venomous animals. The proposed amendments to the By-law address these safety concerns and the input from concerned members of the public while ensuring that the By-law is not overly broad in its application. Notification It is in order to notify Kevin Strooband, Lincoln County Humane Society, 160 Fourth Avenue, RR 3, St. Catharines, Ontario, L2R 6P9.

Abstract Background and Aim: Indonesian cuscuses are now becoming scarce because of the reduction of habitat and poaching. Further, molecular characterization of Indonesian cuscuses is still very lacking. This study aimed to determine genetic markers and phylogenetic relationships of Indonesian cuscuses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Materials and Methods: This study used 21 cuscuses caught from two provinces and 16 islands: 13 from Maluku and eight from Papua. Cuscus samples were taken by biopsy following ethics guidelines for animals.

  • A Species-Level Phylogenetic Supertree of Marsupials
    J. Zool., Lond.

P. Bininda-Emonds3, Elizabeth Boakes1,2 and Andy Purvis1 1 Department of Biological Sciences, Imperial College London, Silwood Park, Ascot SL5 7PY, U.K. 2 Institute of Zoology, Zoological Society of London, Regent’s Park, London NW1 4RY, U.K. 3 Lehrstuhl fur¨ Tierzucht, Technical University of Munich, Alte Akademie 12, 85354 Freising-Weihenstephan, Germany (Accepted 26 January 2004) Abstract Comparative studies require information on phylogenetic relationships, but complete species-level phylogenetic trees of large clades are difficult to produce. One solution is to combine algorithmically many small trees into a single, larger supertree. Here we present a virtually complete, species-level phylogeny of the marsupials (Mammalia: Metatheria), built by combining 158 phylogenetic estimates published since 1980, using matrix representation with parsimony. The supertree is well resolved overall (73.7%), although resolution varies across the tree, indicating variation both in the amount of phylogenetic information available for different taxa, and the degree of conflict among phylogenetic estimates. In particular, the supertree shows poor resolution within the American marsupial taxa, reflecting a relative lack of systematic effort compared to the Australasian taxa. There are also important differences in supertrees based on source phylogenies published before 1995 and those published more recently. The supertree can be viewed as a meta-analysis of marsupial phylogenetic studies, and should be useful as a framework for phylogenetically explicit comparative studies of marsupial evolution and ecology.

  • Rare Sulawesi Bear Cuscus Born in Captivity for First Time 5 June 2018
    Rare Sulawesi bear cuscus born in captivity for first time 5 June 2018 But zoo staff have not yet had the chance to have a really close look. "We haven't named it yet, because we don't know the sex yet," he said. Very little is known about the species, which is vaguely reminiscent of the Koala and lives in Sulawesi's dwindling forests where it has nearly been hunted to death by locals. 'Vulnerable' "We know next to nothing about this species, it's breeding habits or its numbers in the wild because it has never been studied in the wild," said the zoo director, who has spent time on the island, trying to Very little is known about the Sulawesi bear cuscus, discover more about the species. which lives in dwindling forests on the Indonesian island where it has nearly been hunted to death by locals The first Sulawesi bear cuscus to have been born in captivity is thriving at a zoo in Poland, but staff said they only realised the rare tiny marsupial had arrived when its mother's pouch began to move. "It must have been a couple of weeks, or even months, after it was born that we noticed something moving inside the female's pouch and then, a tail popped out!" Radoslaw Ratajszczak, director of the Wroclaw Zoo in south-eastern Poland, told AFP on Tuesday via telephone. "It's the first time the species has been born in The Sulawesi bear cuscus is on the Red List of captivity," he said of the animal whose survival is threatened species and as an easy target for hunters is threatened by hunting and deforestation in its considered vulnerable natural habitat on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi.

Daily activity and diet of Talaud bear cuscus (Ailurops melanotis Thomas, 1898) on Salibabu Island, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 20: 2636-2644. Talaud bear cuscus (Ailurops melanotis) is an endemic species in the Sangihe and Talaud Islands, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. This species is critically endangered in the IUCN Redlist, with a declining population trend. As a protected species in Indonesia, there has not been any specific research on this species. This research aimed to determine the daily activity pattern of talaud bear cuscus based on sex and age classes, and provide the first preliminary data on its dietary diversity and preference. Data collection was conducted on Salibabu Island (Talaud Islands District, North Sulawesi, Indonesia) for approximately three months (May-July 2016). The talaud bear cuscus spent most of its time resting 78.19%, moving 14.98%, feeding 3.49%, grooming 3.06%, and social 0.28%.

    Birds, charming people, a quick marriage to an Islamic girl and a whole new perspective on roadkill in – Indonesia on the islands of Sulawesi, Bali, Halmahera, Ternate and Java 12th June to 10th July 2009 Barry Virtue and Steve Anyon-Smith The Plan A Mr Wallace and a number of other naturalists cum line-drawers have famously sectioned off bits of Indonesia and a few other islands. This was an attempt to corral geographic areas that display a similar mix of flora and fauna grading from truly Continental Asian to the Wonderful World of Oz. Our holiday was to spend time on Bali, west of Wallace’s Line, Sulawesi, to the east of it, and Halmahera, east of Wallace’s and another line as well. The wildlife in these areas is spectacular, has a high degree of endemism and searching for it promised be very rewarding. Wildlife is not the only drawcard for Sulawesi, the island where we spent most of our time. Here there is stunning scenery and some world-class cultural attractions. These include Torajaland, where the local people have some confronting views on life and death, and the mysterious culture that left the amazing ~5000 year old megaliths in the central highlands. The only other aspect of The Plan was to avoid getting caught between rival religious or ethnic groups. This turned out to be easy. To move around on Sulawesi, Ternate and Halmahera we engaged the services of Adventurindo Tours (see entry below). Barry-Sean Virtue joined me for our ninth holiday together. We are still friends! Itinerary (as executed) – many changes were made from the original itinerary as we went along.

  • Protection from Exploitation Needed for the Endemic Sulawesi Bear Cuscus Ailurops Ursinus in Indonesia
    Protection from exploitation needed for the endemic Sulawesi Bear Cuscus Ailurops ursinus in Indonesia Chris R. Shepherd¹, Emerson Y. Sy², Jordi Janssen¹ and John Morgan ¹Monitor Conservation Research Society (Monitor), PO Box 200, Big Lake Ranch, B.C., V0L 1G0, Canada ²TRAFFIC in Southeast Asia, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia Corresponding author: Chris R. Shepherd, Email: [email protected] Abstract Illegal trade in wildlife in Indonesia is rampant, and includes many little-known species, such as the Sulawesi Bear Cuscus Ailurops ursinus. Too often the trade in less charismatic species goes unnoticed, with many being pushed towards extinction. Sadly, few, if any, effective interventions are put in place to prevent further declines. The demand for the Sulawesi Bear Cuscus appears to be small but growing both nationally and internationally and increasingly, carried out on online platforms, making enforcement of existing policies difficult. Legal protection for Sulawesi Bear Cuscus in Indonesia is inadequate, obstructing effective enforcement efforts. Furthermore, the species is not listed in the Appendices of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), making international control impossible. Here we examine the trade in Indonesia’s bear cuscus species and make recommendations for more effective prevention of illegal trade at national and international levels. Abtrak Perdagangan ilegal satwa liar di Indonesia merajalela dan melibatkan banyak spesies-spesies yang kurang dikenal, seperti Kuskus Beruang Sulawesi, Ailurops ursinus. Seringkali, perdagangan spesies-spesies yang kurang karismatik terjadi tanpa disadari sehingga banyak yang akhirnya terdorong menuju kepunahan. Sangat disayangkan bahwa usaha campur tangan yang efektif untuk mencegah penurunan jumlah yang terus terjadi ini bisa dibilang sangat sedikit, bahkan mungkin tidak ada.
