Wildlife in U.S. Cities: Managing Unwanted Animals.
Conflicts between people and wild animals in cities are undoubtedly as old as urban living itself. In the United States it is only of late, however, that many of the species now found in cities have come to live there. The increasing kind and number of human-wildlife conflicts in urbanizing environments makes it a priority that effective and humane means of conflict resolution be found. The urb...
متن کاملEvaluating batteries for advanced wildlife telemetry tags
We evaluate miniature batteries as potential power sources for advanced wildlife telemetry tags. These tags are often based on integrated UHF transceivers that are designed for wireless sensor networks and that consume 18-85mA while receiving or transmitting. This current drain is challenging for many types of miniature batteries. We evaluate batteries both on actual tags and in a specialized s...
متن کاملEvaluating the Potential Efficacy of Invasive Lionfish (Pterois volitans) Removals
The lionfish, Pterois volitans (Linnaeus) and Pterois miles (Bennett), invasion of the Western Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico has the potential to alter aquatic communities and represents a legitimate ecological concern. Several local removal programs have been initiated to control this invasion, but it is not known whether removal efforts can substantially reduce lionfish num...
متن کاملImplications of Body Mass Patterns: Linking Ecological Structure and Process to Wildlife Conservation and Management
The unprecedented scale of problems affecting wildlife ecology today overwhelms many managers. Challenges are no longer local in origin, but rather a tangle of local, regional and even global externalities often interacting in unpredictable ways. Previously isolated ecosystems have become increasingly connected at global, hemispheric and regional levels, eroding their integrity. Endocrine-disru...
متن کاملWildlife-friendly farming increases crop yield: evidence for ecological intensification
Ecological intensification has been promoted as a means to achieve environmentally sustainable increases in crop yields by enhancing ecosystem functions that regulate and support production. There is, however, little direct evidence of yield benefits from ecological intensification on commercial farms growing globally important foodstuffs (grains, oilseeds and pulses). We replicated two treatme...
