Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conflict between increasing human population and biodiversity conservation is one of the IUCN’s key threatening processes. Conservation planning has received a great deal of coverage and research as a way of conserving biodiversity yet, while theoretically successful, it has never been tested. Simple lines on maps to illustrate conservation areas are unlikely to be successful in the light of human encroachment. It may be that some form of overt display is necessary to ensure the protection of reserves. This may be signage, presence of guards/rangers or physical fencing structures. The need for some form of barrier goes beyond restricting human access. The megafauna of Africa pose a genuine threat to human survival. In southern Africa, fences keep animals in and protect the abutting human population. Elsewhere, fencing is not considered important or viable. Where poverty is rife, it won’t take much to tip the balance from beneficial conservation areas to troublesome repositories of crop-raiders, diseases and killers. Conversely, in New Zealand fences are used to keep animals out. Introduced species have decimated New Zealand’s endemic birds, reptiles and invertebrates, and several sites have been entirely encapsulated in mouse-proof fencing to ensure their protection. Australia faces the same problems as New Zealand, however surrounds its national parks with cattle fences. Foxes and cats are free to enter and leave at will, resulting in rapid recolonisation following poisoning campaigns. How long will these poison campaigns work before tolerance, aversion or resistance evolves in the introduced predator populations?

This book was released on 2021 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pronghorn rely on long-distance migrations to access seasonal resources and mitigate the consequences of severe winters and droughts. When barriers sever routes to alternative habitats then pronghorn populations may decline as a result of loss of habitat. Wyoming highways and interstates include woven-wire ROW fencing along the road. Such fencing can be effective deterrents to pronghorn and other ungulates from getting onto roads, which could otherwise pose a threat both to passengers and wildlife. However, this has also exacerbated the barrier effects faced by pronghorn. In our study, we sought to predict the most likely crossing locations for pronghorn across the Wyoming section of Interstate 80 (I80), given seasonal habitats and existing migratory habitat of pronghorn in southern Wyoming. We used a novel approach to develop connectivity models that assign the most likely estimates of movement costs as a function of landscape attributes to predict the probability of corridor use. By combining seasonal habitat predictions with our connectivity models, we simulated the most probable locations of historical corridors used by pronghorn prior to the development of I80. We evaluated the accuracy of our predicted corridors using locations of pronghorn carcasses from attempted crossings, as well as trail camera counts of pronghorn using underpasses, and professional review by wildlife biologists. Our results provide a large-scale assessment of pronghorn seasonal habitat, connectivity, and the identification of crossing structure locations that may best restore migratory behavior across a nearly impermeable barrier.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this lavishly illustrated volume, Richard E. McCabe, Bart W. O'Gara and Henry M. Reeves explore the fascinating relationship of pronghorn with people in early America, from prehistoric evidence through the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876. The only one of fourteen pronghorn-like genera to survive the great extinction brought on by human migration into North America, the pronghorn has a long and unique history of interaction with humans on the continent, a history that until now has largely remained unwritten. With nearly 150 black-and-white photographs, 16 pages of color illustrations, plus original artwork by Daniel P. Metz, Prairie Ghost: Pronghorn and Human Interaction in Early America tells the intriguing story of humans and these elusive big game mammals in an informative and entertaining fashion that will appeal to historians, biologists, sportsmen and the general reader alike.

Book excerpt: The migrations of Wyoming's hooved mammals--mule deer, pronghorn, elk, and moose--between their seasonal ranges are some of the longest and most noteworthy migrations on the North American continent. Wild Migrations presents the previously untold story of these migrations, combining wildlife science and cartography. Facing pages cover more than 50 migration topics, ranging from ecology to conservation and management, enriched by visually stunning graphics and maps, and an introductory essay by Emilene Ostlind.
