Book Behavioral Response of Raccoon  Procyon Lotor  to Experimental Manipulation of Density

Download or read book Behavioral Response of Raccoon Procyon Lotor to Experimental Manipulation of Density written by Diane L. Borden and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of a study to assess the behavioral response of an island population of raccoons (Procyon lotor) to reduction in density, 10 animals were removed seasonally and held in covered wire cages at the field station on the mainland. Raccoons were fed 250-300 g of dry dog food and provided water ad libitum. During the fall, captives averaged a loss in weight of 0.18 g/ day/ animal; during winter, spring, and summer animals gained an average of 0.39, 1.45, and 7.82 g/ day/ animal,respectively. Weight change per day was independent of retention time,sex, season, and an interaction of sex and season. The holding facility served as effective, temporary housing for raccoons. Scent-station visits were evaluated as an index of raccoon abundance within the Central Basin of Tennessee. The inherent assumption that visitation rates vary directly with abundance was tested by experimentally manipulating the density of an island population of raccoons. General protocol for scent stations followed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection presents, for the first time, a much-needed synthesis of the major research themes and findings that characterize the Woodland Period in the southeastern United States. The Woodland Period (ca. 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1000) has been the subject of a great deal of archaeological research over the past 25 years. Researchers have learned that in this approximately 2000-year era the peoples of the Southeast experienced increasing sedentism, population growth, and organizational complexity. At the beginning of the period, people are assumed to have been living in small groups, loosely bound by collective burial rituals. But by the first millennium A.D., some parts of the region had densely packed civic ceremonial centers ruled by hereditary elites. Maize was now the primary food crop. Perhaps most importantly, the ancient animal-focused and hunting-based religion and cosmology were being replaced by solar and warfare iconography, consistent with societies dependent on agriculture, and whose elites were increasingly in competition with one another. This volume synthesizes the research on what happened during this era and how these changes came about while analyzing the period's archaeological record. In gathering the latest research available on the Woodland Period, the editors have included contributions from the full range of specialists working in the field, highlighted major themes, and directed readers to the proper primary sources. Of interest to archaeologists and anthropologists, both professional and amateur, this will be a valuable reference work essential to understanding the Woodland Period in the Southeast.

Book Forgotten Grasslands of the South

Download or read book Forgotten Grasslands of the South written by Reed F. Noss and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-12-03 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forgotten Grasslands of the South is the study of one of the biologically richest and most endangered ecosystems in North America. In a seamless blend of science and personal observation, renowned ecologist Reed Noss explains the natural history of southern grasslands, their origin and history, and the physical determinants of grassland distribution, including ecology, soils, landform, and hydrology. In addition to offering fascinating new information about these little-studied ecosystems, Noss demonstrates how natural history is central to the practice of conservation. Although theory and experimentation have recently dominated the field of ecology, ecologists are coming to realize how these distinct approaches are not divergent but complementary, and that pursuing them together can bring greater knowledge and understanding of how the natural world works and how we can best conserve it. This long-awaited work sets a new standard for scientific literature and is essential reading for those who study and work to conserve the grasslands of the South as well as for everyone who is fascinated by the natural world.

Book The Catawba Nation

    Book Details:
  • Author : Charles M. Hudson
  • Publisher : University of Georgia Press
  • Release : 2007-12-01
  • ISBN : 0820331333
  • Pages : 158 pages

Download or read book The Catawba Nation written by Charles M. Hudson and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this reconstruction of the history of the Catawba Indians, Charles M. Hudson first considers the "external history" of the Catawba peoples, based on reports by such outsiders as explorers, missionaries, and government officials. In these chapters, the author examines the social and cultural classification of the Catawbas at the time of early contact with the white men, their later position in a plural southern society and gradual assimilation into the larger national society, and finally the termination of their status as Indians with the Bureau of Indian Affairs. This external history is then contrasted with the folk history of the Catawbas, the past as they believe it to have been. Hudson looks at the way this legendary history parallels documentary history, and shows how the Catawbas have used their folk remembrances to resist or adapt to the growing pressures of the outside world.
