Download or read book Les effets de risque de la pr dation par le phoque gris sur unepopulation de morue franche written by Eliane Aubry and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "À l'instar de plusieurs poissons de fond du Golfe du Saint-Laurent (GSL), la morue franche (Gadus morhua) a connu un déclin majeur au début des années 1990, principalement causé par la surpêche. Cette chute drastique des populations de morues a résulté en un évènement historique où un moratoire sur la pêche à la morue a été déclaré. Pour la population de morue du sud du Golfe du Saint-Laurent (sGSL), cet arrêt des pêches n'a pas suffi à faire rebondir la population. L'absence de rétablissement est dû au taux anormalement élevé de mortalité naturelle de la morue adulte. Même si plusieurs facteurs semblent avoir contribué à la hausse de la mortalité naturelle pendant l'effondrement, c'est plutôt la prédation par le phoque gris (Halichoerus grypus) qui semble être la principale cause de son maintien et de son augmentation. Les résultats de notre étude nous permettent de conclure que l'abondance de phoque gris dans le sGSL a un effet négatif sur la condition corporelle de la morue. Conséquemment, la baisse de la condition de la morue n'est pas uniquement causée par le déplacement de la morue en eaux plus profondes puisque même en eaux peu profondes, la condition est plus faible lorsque l'abondance des phoques gris est plus élevée. Ainsi, ces effets de risque deviennent de plus en plus importants et viennent jouer un rôle dans le maintien de la mortalité naturelle élevée de la morue du sGSL. Cette étude vient réaffirmer le besoin de prendre en compte autant les effets directs que les effets indirects de la prédation dans les plans de gestion et conservation de la ressource et par le fait même, réitère l'importance de passer à une approche écosystémique dans les processus de gestion des pêcheries. Le destin est sombre pour la morue du sGSL, son extinction est à envisager si la situation ne change pas. Dans les faits, un nombre important de phoques gris devrait être retiré afin que la population de morue du sGSL puisse commencer à se rétablir. Toutefois cette avenue ouvre la porte à des problématiques qui vont au-delà des mandats scientifiques, elles deviennent des questions sociales et politiques. La prudence sera de mise dans les décisions relatives à la gestion de la morue et du phoque gris, plusieurs aspects scientifiques, sociaux, économiques et politiques devront être pris en compte, débattus etanalysés avant d'en arriver à une solution viable."--Sommaire.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La médecine des mammifères marins, cétacés comme pinnipèdes, est en pleine expansion. Les observations des animaux de parcs zoologiques sont actuellement complétées par de plus en plus d'études sur des populations sauvages. Les conditions de vie des pinnipèdes, et des phoques en particulier (mode de vie amphibie, regroupement en colonies à certaines périodes de l'année), ainsi que la création de centres récupérant des jeunes échoués ou en détresse permettent aux scientifiques d'observer les affections se développant en milieu sauvage, de réaliser des études sur un nombre important d'individus, d'effectuer des suivis et des prélèvements, tels que les prises de sang qui peuvent fournir diverses renseignements. Les grandes populations de phoques gris et veaux marins du Canada, de la côte Est des Etats-Unis, et des côtes nord européennes (îles britanniques, mer Baltique) bénéficient déjà de ces études. Il était donc intéressant de faire un bilan sur le même principe des populations autochtones de phoques gris et de phoques veaux marins présentes sur les côtes françaises. Ce travail s'est ainsi appuyé sur une base de données s'étalant sur seize années et regroupant 254 individus. Celle-ci se compose de fiches cliniques individuelles pour chaque phoque échoué sur nos côtes et recueilli à la clinique pour phoques d'Océanopolis située à Brest (29). Ce travail met ainsi en avant les principales affections rencontrées dans les populations présentes localement, les traitements mis en oeuvre dans chaque cas et fournit un petit manuel sur la pathologie du phoque gris et du phoque veau marin.

Download or read book Hunters Predators and Prey written by Frédéric Laugrand and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inuit hunting traditions are rich in perceptions, practices and stories relating to animals and human beings. The authors examine key figures such as the raven, an animal that has a central place in Inuit culture as a creator and a trickster, and qupirruit, a category consisting of insects and other small life forms. After these non-social and inedible animals, they discuss the dog, the companion of the hunter, and the fellow hunter, the bear, considered to resemble a human being. A discussion of the renewal of whale hunting accompanies the chapters about animals considered ‘prey par excellence’: the caribou, the seals and the whale, symbol of the whole. By giving precedence to Inuit categories such as ‘inua’ (owner) and ‘tarniq’ (shade) over European concepts such as ‘spirit ‘and ‘soul’, the book compares and contrasts human beings and animals to provide a better understanding of human-animal relationships in a hunting society.

Download or read book Marine Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning written by Martin Solan and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-07-19 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biological composition and richness of most of the Earth's major ecosystems are being dramatically and irreversibly transformed by anthropogenic activity. Yet, despite the vast areal extent of our oceans, the mainstay of research to-date in the biodiversity-ecosystem functioning arena has been weighted towards ecological observations and experimentation in terrestrial plant and soil systems. This book provides a framework for extending these concepts to a variety of marine systems. Marine Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning is the first book to address the latest advances in biodiversity-function science using marine examples. It brings together contributions from the leading scientists in the field to provide an in-depth evaluation of the science, before offering a perspective on future research directions for some of the most pressing environmental issues facing society today and in the future.
