Abstract:
Aim: The aim of this research was to examine patterns of human-wildlife conflict and assess community perception towards compensation program implemented to ameliorate human-wildlife co-existence.Location: North and South Forest Divisions, Nilambur, South India.Material and Methods: Data were collected from the official archives of applications made by victims or their families at Divisional Forest Office, Nilambur North and South Forest Division, for the period 2010–2013. The data included (a) types of conflict, (b) wildlife species involved in the conflict, (c) dates of application made by applicants, (d) dates of final decision made by concerned authority and (d) relief amount sanctioned. People’s perceptions towards compensation program were gathered using a questionnaire survey (n=179).Key findings: Crop damage was the most common type of conflict, followed by property damage, injury and death by wildlife attack. Crop damage was contributed mainly by elephant (Elephas maximus) (59%) and wild boar (Sus scrofa) (32%). The other wildlife species involved in conflict were bonnet macaque (Macaca radiata) (3.8%), leopard (Panthera pardus) (3.3%), Malabar giant squirrel (Ratufa indica) (0.47%), porcupine (Hystrix indica) (0.29%), Guar (Bos gaurus) (0.95%) and Sambar deer (Cervus unicolor)(0.29 %). On average, people took 13 days to claim compensation, which received decisions in 90 days. The majority of respondents (67%) were not satisfied with the compensation schemes. The main causes of such dissatisfaction were (a) allocation of insufficient money for the compensation (46.6%), (b) prolonged and difficult administrative procedures to make claims (20%), (c) people’s convictions that compensation scheme does not eradicate the conflict (20%) and (d) disbelief on the officials involved in compensation program (6.6%).Conservation implications: Our results suggest that compensation program has not gained acceptance among local community as an effective strategy to mitigate human-wildlife conflict. Although it may reduce hostile attitude towards wildlife, alternative approaches are urgently needed that avoid conflicts.

Abstract:
Central European countries share many similarities in the composition of forest habitats and wildlife species. However, the former political division of Europe produced substantial differences in wildlife management systems and land ownership. Forests are generally regarded as a source of lumber with the requirements of wildlife neglected most of the time. There is an urgent need to introduce measures enhancing forest habitats for wildlife. Most important seems to be maintaining and possibly increasing biodiversity by altering present logging systems. In future, production of timber should become only one of several functions of forests including conservation of wildlife, recreation, and other values.

Abstract:
SummaryThe mountains of south-eastern Nigeria are a western extension of the Cameroon mountain range, which is classified as an endemic bird area (EBA). Unlike its eastern extension in Cameroon, most of the ornithological surveys in the western extension of the Cameroon highlands in Nigeria have produced only limited checklists and inventories. There is a clear need for quantitative baseline data so that conservation problems can be identified. Twenty line transects covering a total transect length of 28.8 km were used to survey five sites (Afi Mountain Wildlife Sanctuary, Oban Division and Okwangwo Division of Cross River National Park, Sankwala Mountains and Mbe Mountains) in the westernmost extension of the Cameroon Mountains EBA in south-eastern Nigeria. Vegetation measurements were taken to control for the potential confounding effect of variation in vegetation density and structure on detectability of birds between sites. The 193 bird species recorded in Afi, 158 in Sankwala, 124 in Oban, 100 in Mbe and 73 in Okwangwo Division included most of the Cameroon highlands restricted range species. The results show that the mountains of south-eastern Nigeria are important parts of the Cameroon EBA, particularly Afi Mountain Wildlife Sanctuary. However these sites are threatened by fire and livestock grazing on the hilltops, shifting agriculture on the hillsides and lowlands, and logging for timber in some parts, as well as wildlife hunting for bushmeat.

Abstract:
Purpose: Wildlife resources constitute indispensable nature’s strongholds for human livelihoods strategies in forest, savanna zones across Ghana and the worldwide although, it often engendered conflicts. Impact of community participation on adaptive wildlife resources management was strategically assessed at Mole National Park. Research methodology: 60 randomly selected park environs residents were interviewed for valid responses using semi-structured questionnaires. Findings: High wildlife products demand has transformed bush meat into lucrative business through poaching by thousands of youths and adults, causing habitat destruction and sharp wildlife population decline. Hunters, poachers, middlemen, restaurant operators constituted game-trade-market-value chain. Limitations: Funding subjectivity reduced scope of the study to only few communities in dry season. Temptation to reject the questionnaires on suspicion of force evacuation plots against some park adjoining villages was later refuted. Hence, recovery rate was 100%. Contribution: We recommend that Wildlife Division of the Forestry Commission should strengthen synergies on community participation in adaptive wildlife management by coopting educational interventions that positively influence indigenous behaviors through seminars, workshops, face-to-face interactions. This will better define the rights, roles, responsibilities of key partners towards resolving communal wildlife conflicts. Keywords: Community participation, Wildlife management, Park sustainability, Poaching, Game-trade-market-value chain

Abstract:
Nairobi National Park (NNP) in Kenya was established in 1946 to conserve the abundance and diversity of wildlife in the Kitengela-Athi-Kaputei plains, from excessive exploitation. It is currently fenced except on the Kitengela side across the Mbagathi River due to the sub-division of the group ranches, which commenced in the 1980s, limiting access of wildlife to the migratory corridor and dispersal areas. This paper is based on a study conducted to assess the impacts of the resultant land use changes in the Kitengela dispersal area/ migratory corridor on the migratory fauna of NNP, and to identify appropriate mitigation measures. The findings indicated that increased human settlement, led to changes in land uses which resulted into multiple negative impacts on the migratory wildlife of Nairobi National Park, mainly due to loss of dispersal area and blockage of migratory routes, leading to wildlife confinement, decreased wildlife tolerance and increased incidences of human wildlife conflicts. Data analysis indicated decline in migratory wildlife population thus negative effect (F=, 6.066, p<0.05). The findings also indicated that loss of migratory routes/dispersal area and reduced vegetation cover was regarded by 55% of the local community respondents as one of the main consequences of the land use changes resulting from the subdivision of the group ranches leading to decreased wildlife tolerance (β = 0.246) and wildlife confinement (β = 0.371) in NNP (p= 0.021, < 0.05, F= 2.678; R=0.179, R2= 0.032). The paper also discusses the mitigation measures for the longtime sustainability of the park, the dispersal area and migratory corridor, including holistic implementation of the Kitengela-Isinya-Kipeto Local Physical Development Plan, mapping and protection of the vital wildlife areas within the migratory range, including the wildebeest calving area in North Kaputiei.

Abstract:
The Animal Industry Division of the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) has been challenged with assisting farmers with modifying farm practices to reduce potential for exposure toMycobacterium bovisfrom wildlife to cattle. The MDARD recommendations for on-farm risk mitigation practices were developed from experiences in the US, UK and Ireland and a review of the scientific literature. The objectives of our study were to review the present state of knowledge onM. bovisexcretion, transmission, and survival in the environment and the interactions of wildlife and cattle with the intention of determining if the current recommendations by MDARD on farm practices are adequate and to identify additional changes to farm practices that may help to mitigate the risk of transmission. This review will provide agencies with a comprehensive summary of the scientific literature on mitigation of disease transmission between wildlife and cattle and to identify lacunae in published research.

Abstract:
Rangeland monitoring is used by land managers for assessing multiple-use management practices on western rangelands. Managers benefit from improved monitoring methods that provide rapid, accurate, cost-effective, and robust measures of rangeland health and ecological trend. In this study, we used a supervised classification image analysis approach to estimate plant cover and bare ground by functional group that can be used to monitor and assess rangeland structure. High-resolution color infrared imagery taken of 40 research plots was acquired with a UltraCam X (UCX) digital camera during summer 2011. Ground estimates of cover were simultaneously collected by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources' Range Trend Project field crew within these same areas. Image analysis was conducted using supervised classification to determine percent cover from Red, Green, Blue and infrared images. Classification accuracy and mean difference between cover estimates from remote sensed imagery and those obtained from the ground were compared using an accuracy assessment with Kappa statistic and a t-test analysis, respectively. Percent cover estimates from remote sensing ranged from underestimating the surface class (rock, pavement, and bare ground) by 27% to overestimating shrubs by less than 1% when compared to field-based measurements. Overall accuracy of the supervised classification was 91% with a kappa statistic of 0.88. The highest accuracy was observed when classifying surface values (bare ground, rock) which had a user's and producer's accuracy of 92% and 93%, respectively. Although surface cover varied significantly from field-based estimates, plant cover varied only slightly, giving managers an option to assess plant cover effectively and efficiently on greater temporal and spatial extents.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Populations of the four Bear Lake endemic species, Bonneville cisco <em>Prosopium gemmifer</em>, Bonneville whitefish <em>P. spilonotus</em>, Bear Lake whitefish <em>P. abyssicola</em>, and Bear Lake sculpin <em>Cottus extensus</em>, were monitored by Utah Division of Wildlife Resources and/or Utah State University. Bonneville cisco populations have been monitored annually since 1990 using hydroacoustic sampling. The population has ranged from 1.9 to 9.7 million fish. Because no reliable method was available to determine whitefish species identification prior to 1999, the whitefish population was monitored from 1973 to 1998 by lumping the catches of both species and referring to them as the “whitefish complex.” In 1999, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources began recording the percentage of gill-net catch comprised by Bonneville and Bear Lake whitefish. Bonneville whitefish comprised between 84% and 94% of the gill-net catch while Bear Lake whitefish comprised between 6% and 16%. Relative abundance of Bear Lake sculpin was monitored biennially since 1998 using catch rates from bottom trawling. Average catch per 20-min trawl at both the top and bottom of the thermocline at three different sites ranged from 37 fish to 79 fish.

Abstract:
Sovereignty as cultural practice can explain the possibility of the people as the subject of constituent power. I transpose Panu Minkkinen’s division of theories of sovereignty onto the cultural plane: ‘Acephalous’ sovereign self-knowledge is not only productive of the framework for a legal constitution, but subjectivises ‘autocephalous’ sovereignty – the people as the subject of constituent power – that can then act on the ‘heterocephalous’ stage of politics. Through a case study of the armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, I consider sovereignty’s relationship with land – juxtaposing it with neoliberalism and anti-statism, which threaten to undo the people as a subject of constituent power – and complicate this reading by placing it in the context of post-colonial America. I conclude that sovereignty not only remains a powerful counterforce to neoliberal, anti-democratic projects, but that alliances with the state to construct the people as the subject of constituent power can serve this purpose. At the same time, the post-colonial context undermines these alliances as an emancipatory force.

<em>Abstract.—</em>-An aspirator, was developed by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources to mix rotenone slurry used to eradicate undesirable fish species from Strawberry Reservoir, Utah, in 1990. An aspirator was the best method that Utah has developed for mixing powdered rotenone into a slurry. Slurry characteristics were as good or better than those achieved by any other mixing technique tried. The system utilized a high pressure pump that forced water through the aspirator creating suction used to vacuum powdered rotenone from bulk bags (1,000 lb capacity). The powder and water combined inside the aspirator chamber forming a slurry. The slurry was discharged directly on to the reservoir surface or delivered into barge tanks from the aspirator nozzle. Rotenone loss in the form of dust was significantly reduced compared to other mixing techniques and there was limited exposure of the chemical to personnel. One person could operate the aspirator efficiently.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract.-</em>As part of the nation’s sixth fastest growing and sixth most urbanized state, Utah’s natural resource professionals face the challenge of managing fisheries for an increasingly urban population. As the state’s population continues to grow, recreational areas are often lost to urban development. This, coupled with increasing cost of living, dual-income households, and busy urban lifestyles, reduces the ability of urban residents to travel to more distant, traditional fisheries. To address the challenges arising from changing demographics, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR) created the Community Fisheries Program (CFP). The goals of the CFP are to provide fishing opportunities close to urban centers and to use these opportunities to recruit youth to the sport of fishing. Initiated in 2000, this program has been successful in partnering with city and county governments to secure fishing opportunities along the Wasatch Front, where 80% of Utah’s population resides. Additionally, program staff have teamed up with community recreation coordinators to offer youth fishing clubs in many cities. These community youth fishing clubs have increased in enrollment each year and have graduated over 10,000 youth over a period of seven years.

Abstract:
Abstract.—The waters in Strawberry Valley, Utah, were chemically treated with rotenone to remove all fish species in 1990 to restore a recreational salmonid fishery. This treatment was one of the largest chemical rehabilitation projects ever undertaken, the area encompassing approximately 170 square miles including 55 tributaries to the upper Strawberry River and Strawberry Reservoir. Fish inhabited a total combined length of 161 miles of stream channel and numerous springs. Treatment volume was reduced from 400,000 to 300,000 acre-feet by treating the epilimnion when the reservoir was stratified. Approximately 875,000 lbs of powdered rotenone and 4,000 gallons of 5% liquid rotenone were used. Over 6,000 workdays using 260 personnel and $3.8 million were required to complete the task. Several innovative procedures for handling and applying rotenone (powder and liquid) were developed to include 1) use of 1,000 lb bags to handle the powder, 2) use of a epilimnetic treatment procedure, 3) mixing powdered rotenone into a slurry with a venturi device, and 4) development of rotenone sandmix that maintains fish toxicity in seeps for 12 hour periods. Summarized here are the objectives, treatment proposal approach, public involvement efforts, regulatory procedures, research and development efforts, and logistical strategies used by the Utah Division of Wildlife to accomplish a chemical treatment of this magnitude. The results of the Strawberry Valley treatment are more than one million hours of fishing pleasure and opportunities for large cutthroat trout and kokanee salmon.

Between July and August 2015, as well as February and March 2016, three acoustical monitoring systems were deployed throughout the park, however one site (MEVE002) stopped recording after a couple days during the summer due to wildlife interference. The goal of the study was to establish a baseline soundscape inventory of backcountry and frontcountry sites within the park. This inventory will be used to establish indicators and thresholds of soundscape quality that will support the park and NSNSD in developing a comprehensive approach to protecting the acoustic environment through soundscape management planning. Additionally, results of this study will help the park identify major sources of noise within the park, as well as provide a baseline understanding of the acoustical environment as a whole for use in potential future comparative studies. In this deployment, sound pressure level (SPL) was measured continuously every second by a calibrated sound level meter. Other equipment included an anemometer to collect wind speed and a digital audio recorder collecting continuous recordings to document sound sources. In this document, “sound pressure level” refers to broadband (12.5 Hz–20 kHz), A-weighted, 1-second time averaged sound level (LAeq, 1s), and hereafter referred to as “sound level.” Sound levels are measured on a logarithmic scale relative to the reference sound pressure for atmospheric sources, 20 μPa. The logarithmic scale is a useful way to express the wide range of sound pressures perceived by the human ear. Sound levels are reported in decibels (dB). A-weighting is applied to sound levels in order to account for the response of the human ear (Harris, 1998). To approximate human hearing sensitivity, A-weighting discounts sounds below 1 kHz and above 6 kHz. Trained technicians calculated time audible metrics after monitoring was complete. See Methods section for protocol details, equipment specifications, and metric calculations. Median existing (LA50) and natural ambient (LAnat) metrics are also reported for daytime (7:00–19:00) and nighttime (19:00–7:00). Prominent noise sources at the two backcountry sites (MEVE001 and MEVE002) included vehicles and aircraft, while building and vehicle predominated at the frontcountry site (MEVE003). Table 1 displays time audible values for each of these noise sources during the monitoring period, as well as ambient sound levels. In determining the current conditions of an acoustical environment, it is informative to examine how often sound levels exceed certain values. Table 2 reports the percent of time that measured levels at the three monitoring locations were above four key values.
