The status of many carnivore species is a growing concern for wildlife agencies, conservation organizations, and the general public. Historically, kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis) were classified as abundant and distributed in the desert and semi-arid regions of southwestern North America, but is now considered rare throughout its range. Survey methods have been evaluated for kit foxes, but often in...

Harry O. Fox continues as treasurer of the Civil Service Employees Association. He defeated Vernon R. Davis for t he post. The •ote was 11,406 for Fox, 5,855 for Davis. In last week's LEADER'S tabulation of the voting, a "1" was left out of Harry 's vote, which reduced the count to a mere dribble, arid the proof reader didn't catch it. So here's t h e correct figw e again for Har ry : 11,406. A...

The Arctic fox has a circumpolar distribution and is intensively studied because it is adapted to extreme environments and influences the ecology of many other species. We introduce here a collection of 12 articles on Arctic fox biology and management. After summarizing the main biological features of the species, we explore the peer-reviewed literature dealing with the Arctic fox through a bib...

This paper examines the ordinary least squares estimates of the Klein–Goldberger model by Fox (Journal of Political Economy , 64, 1956, 128). Because Klein and Goldberger published the data set with the model, it is possible to re-examine Fox’s results years later, and investigate the accuracy with which these estimates were calculated. The examination reported in this paper was conducted by ma...

Restraining is essential to many wildlife research and management programs. In an Argentine Pampas area, we studied the trapping success for the pampas fox Pseudalopex gymnocercus. We compared the capture efficiency (captures/trap days), species selectivity (fox captures/all captures), trap reliability (fox captures/fox visits), and malfunction rate (disturbed traps/trap days, of three restrain...

Thank you Dean Zollman, for your kind remarks. I am honored to speak to you today, and I hope that I will be able to say something of interest to each of you. When I attended school here, it was called Kansas State College. 1) Agriculture and agronomy were strong and I am pleased to introduce my friend during those years here, who later became a professor in Agronomy here at K‐State: Dr Warren ...

that was killed and cannibalized in a single event, some 49,000 years ago. This makes it a unique opportunity for investigating intragroup diversity, kinship structure, mating behaviour or reproductive patterns that are not going to be approachable anywhere else in the scattered fossil record. Carles Lalueza-Fox is a researcher at the Institute of Evolutionary Biology (CSIC-UPF) in Barcelona, w...
