  • Burned to Be Wild: Science, Society, and Ecological Conservation In

    Burned to Be Wild: Science, Society, and Ecological Conservation In

    BURNED TO BE WILD: SCIENCE, SOCIETY, AND ECOLOGICAL CONSERVATION IN THE SOUTHERN LONGLEAF PINE by ALBERT GLOVER WAY (Under the Direction of Paul S. Sutter) ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the development of ecological conservation and science in the southern coastal plain’s dominant ecosystem – the longleaf pine-grassland forest. It examines how the impetus for conservation changed over the long twentieth-century from concerns over bodily health, landscape aesthetics, and recreation, into concerns for ecological integrity and landscape diversity, and argues that the biocentric turn in twentieth-century science and society was rooted in the very processes of production that it sought to moderate. To unearth this story, it focuses on the region surrounding Thomasville, Georgia and Tallahassee, Florida, known as the Red Hills, where wealthy northerners came after the Civil War and Reconstruction in search of health, and remained to convert failing farms and plantations into winter retreats and hunting preserves. In the years covered here, roughly 1880-1960, this land of wealth and poverty was a working landscape that produced a variety of goods and supported a large number of people; yet, at the same time it was a conservation landscape and laboratory where a great deal of scientific knowledge about the longleaf pine-grassland environment came to light. The central figure in this dissertation is Herbert L. Stoddard, an ornithologist, wildlife biologist, and ecological forester who came to the Red Hills in 1924 as an agent of the U.S. Bureau of the Biological Survey to examine the life history and preferred habitat of the bobwhite quail.

    Common Name: BLACKBANDED SUNFISH Scientific Name: Enneacanthus chaetodon Other Commonly Used Names: none Previously Used Scientific Names: none Family: Centrarchidae Rarity Ranks: G4/S1 State Legal Status: Endangered Federal Legal Status: Not Listed Description: The blackbanded sunfish is a small, laterally compressed and deep-bodied species reaching a maximum total length of 100 mm (4 inches). There is a prominent notch separating the spinous and soft-rayed portions of the dorsal fin. It is distinctively marked with 5-6 black bars along the sides that extend from the dorsum to the venter. The first of these bars passes through the eye, and the third extends through the first three membranes of the spinous dorsal fin to the upper edge of the fin. No other sunfish has this barring pattern. The blackbanded sunfish is also very colorful with black vertical bars, olive-brown to variegated-brown on the dorsum and upper sides, and orange-copper marking the leading edge of the pelvic fins and the irises. Similar Species: The small body size and distinctive color pattern make it difficult to confuse the blackbanded sunfish with any other fish species in Georgia waters. It may superficially resemble the banded (Enneacanthus obesus) and bluespotted (E. gloriosus) sunfishes, which differ in having only a shallow notch separating the spinous and soft-rayed portions of the dorsal fin and lacking the prominent dark bar extending through the anterior dorsal fin membranes. Habitat: Blackbanded sunfish are restricted to shallow, low-velocity, non-turbid waters of lakes, ponds, rivers and streams. They are strongly associated with aquatic plants, which provide habitat for foraging and cover.

    Item 7: Little River Conservation Area BA ITEM 7: Vote on whether to amend the Little River Conservation Area Florida Forever project boundary to add one property totaling approximately 208 acres in Gadsden County with a prorated tax assessed market value of $445,047. LOCATION: Gadsden County DSL STAFF REMARKS: The Little River Conservation Area amendment proposed by Keith Fountain, adds a 208-acre portion of an 825-acre parcel in Gadsden County to the Little River Conservation Area Florida Forever project. The property has a prorated tax assessed market value of $445,047. The property adjacent to the Little River Conservation Area is proposed for less-than-fee acquisition. The landowner, Backhoe Boys LLC, has been contacted and is a willing seller. The property located along the north side of Highway 90 is adjacent to the southwest corner of the current Little River Conservation Area boundary. The project is located within the Tallahassee Red Hills region and contains planted pine with some native understory, mixed hardwood coniferous swamps and mixed wetland hardwood habitat. The property is currently managed by limited thinning of the timber stands and regular prescribed fire. The proposal meets the Florida Forever criteria to be submitted as a boundary amendment. The parcel is less than 1,000 acres, has a tax assessed value of less than $2 million, and is less than 10% of the size of the overall project to which it is being proposed for addition. The proposal area should be designated as essential. Project History: The Little River Conservation Area project in Gadsden County was approved by the Acquisition and Restoration Council in 2004.
