Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La caza, actividad ancestral, practicada a lo largo de los tiempos, unas veces por necesidad y otras como recreo, ha evolucionado, al igual que otros aspectos de la vida, hasta llegar a nuestros días, presentando actualmente una serie de circunstancias novedosas hasta ahora desconocidas. En esta obra abordamos la gestión cinegética desde una perspectiva técnica y jurídica, aunque también se haga una breve referencia introductoria a otras consideraciones relativas a aspectos éticos, económicos, sociales o antropológicos. Se muestra la necesidad de una adecuada ordenación y planificación de los recursos cinegéticos que permita un legítimo aprovechamiento racional de este recurso natural renovable, aplicando principios de sostenibilidad. Al mismo tiempo se estudia la conveniencia de practicar la caza con el propósito de salvaguardar los valores de nuestro patrimonio natural, de modo que su correcta gestión contribuya a la preservación de los ecosistemas. El ejercicio de la caza en las sociedades avanzadas, referidas en términos socioeconómicos, ha llegado a ser considerada innecesaria para parte de la sociedad, e incluso con la aceptación por determinados sectores de poseer connotaciones negativas, aunque esta percepción se hace desde una perspectiva ética más que técnica. No obstante, no se dispone de suficiente información sobre dicha opinión y el porcentaje de la población que la comparte. Sin embargo, al contrario, la actividad cinegética sigue siendo necesaria, tanto por la riqueza que genera, vinculada estrechamente al medio rural, como por el papel que juega en el equilibrio de las poblaciones silvestres y la conservación de la naturaleza. Desde la perspectiva jurídica se efectúa un análisis de los Convenios Internacionales, del Derecho de la Unión Europea, del Derecho español en esta materia y comparativamente con países de nuestro entorno. El propósito final es dar a conocer la realidad actual de esta materia y aportar ideas que propicien la necesaria adaptación de la legislación a la realidad actual, afrontando con determinación los nuevos retos que se nos presentan como la artificialización, la calidad cinegética, los desequilibrios poblacionales, etc. El objetivo último es contribuir en el desarrollo de un marco normativo más eficaz y con ello propiciar una mejor gestión de nuestro patrimonio natural en beneficio del medio ambiente y de la sociedad.

Download or read book Tapirs written by Daniel M. Brooks and published by IUCN. This book was released on 1997 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Descended from a long and ancient lineage, tapirs are important tropical forest seed dispersers. However, today, all species of tapirs are threatened to various degrees by habitat destruction and hunting. This action plan was written with wildlife biologists, ecologists, administrators, educators and local conservation officials in mind and is aimed at those countries with tapir populations. It provides a brief natural history of each species and its objective is to aid in their conservation by catalyzing conservation action. In addition, it is hoped that the contents of the plan will stimulate further research into this fascinating group of animals.

Download or read book Mahatma Gandhi written by Dennis Dalton and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-21 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dennis Dalton's classic account of Gandhi's political and intellectual development focuses on the leader's two signal triumphs: the civil disobedience movement (or salt satyagraha) of 1930 and the Calcutta fast of 1947. Dalton clearly demonstrates how Gandhi's lifelong career in national politics gave him the opportunity to develop and refine his ideals. He then concludes with a comparison of Gandhi's methods and the strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, drawing a fascinating juxtaposition that enriches the biography of all three figures and asserts Gandhi's relevance to the study of race and political leadership in America. Dalton situates Gandhi within the "clash of civilizations" debate, identifying the implications of his work on continuing nonviolent protests. He also extensively reviews Gandhian studies and adds a detailed chronology of events in Gandhi's life.

Download or read book Handbook of Venoms and Toxins of Reptiles written by Stephen P. Mackessy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-05-24 with total page 912 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A decade after publication of the first edition, Handbook of Venoms and Toxins of Reptiles responds to extensive changes in the field of toxinology to endure as the most comprehensive review of reptile venoms on the market. The six sections of this new edition, which has nearly doubled in size, complement the original handbook by presenting current information from many of the leading researchers and physicians in toxinology, with topics ranging from functional morphology, evolution and ecology to crystallography, -omics technologies, drug discovery and more. With the recent recognition by the World Health Organization of snakebite as a neglected tropical disease, the section on snakebite has been expanded and includes several chapters dealing with the problem broadly and with new technologies and the promises these new approaches may hold to counter the deleterious effects of envenomation. This greatly expanded handbook offers a unique resource for biologists, biochemists, toxicologists, physicians, clinicians, and epidemiologists, as well as informed laypersons interested in the biology of venomous reptiles, the biochemistry and molecular biology of venoms, and the effects and treatment of human envenomation.

Download or read book Fresh Tracks in the Forest Assessing Incipient Payments for Environmental Services Initiatives in Bolivia written by Nina Robertson and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Payments for Environmental Services (PES) are being considered worldwide with great interest and expectation. Proposals to create agreements in which beneficiaries of environmental services pay landowners directly for the provision or protection of these services are innovative and promising. But what real PES experiences are actually out there? This work assesses a range of PES or PES-type experiences in one country, Bolivia, in the fields of carbon sequestration, protection of watershed services, biodiversity and aesthetic landscape values. The report concludes that while none of the generally young initiatives adhere fully to the principle of PES as developed in the theoretical literature, many experiment with some of the relevant PES mechanisms. Protection of watersheds and landscape values are the most common types, though the implementing intermediaries often have underlying biodiversity-protection goals. Main obstacles to PES implementation include ideological resistance against the PES concept, the difficulty of building trust between buyers and sellers, and limited willingness to pay on behalf of service users. During their relatively short lifetime, basically all initiatives had been successful in making service sellers (PES recipients) better off in economic terms, while the effectiveness in achieving environmental objectives and securing positive social impacts so far remained more variable. In some cases, redesigning these initiatives to bring them closer to the full PES principles could also enable them to more effectively achieve positive environmental and livelihood outcomes.

Download or read book Extinction in Our Times written by James P. Collins and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-07 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 350 million years, thousands of species of amphibians have lived on earth, but since the 1990s they have been disappearing at an alarming rate, in many cases quite suddenly and mysteriously. What is causing these extinctions? What role do human actions play in them? What do they tell us about the overall state of biodiversity on the planet? In Extinction in Our Times, James Collins and Martha Crump explore these pressing questions and many others as they document the first modern extinction event across an entire vertebrate class, using global examples that range from the Sierra Nevada of California to the rainforests of Costa Rica and the Mediterranean coast of North Africa. Joining scientific rigor and vivid storytelling, this book is the first to use amphibian decline as a lens through which to see more clearly the larger story of climate change, conservation of biodiversity, and a host of profoundly important ecological, evolutionary, ethical, philosophical, and sociological issues.
