Evaluation of chemical repellents for reducing crop damage by dickcissels in Venezuela. International Journal of Pest Management 47(4):311-314. 242K Dickcissels are a threat to sorghum and rice in South America. Three bird repellent chemicals (methiocarb, methyl anthranilate, and anthraquinone) were applied to rice and evaluated for effectiveness in feeding trials. Flight Control, a 0.5% anthraquinone mixture used in U. S. rice fields to repel red-winged blackbirds appears to be a good prospect for reducing damage.

Wolves once had an almost worldwide distribution, but are now limited primarily to North America Eurasia , and the Middle East . Their preference on habitat ranges among forests tundra taigas plains and mountains . In the northern hemisphere human encroachment on their habitat and persecution of the animals themselves have drastically reduced their range . The wolf is today frequently in the line of fire in conflicts between many different interests: tourism industry city country , as well as conservation exploitation As the wolf is an apex predator , the state of the wolf can frequently be seen as a state of the land where it lives. Wolves are still endangered after being hunted down in the 1600s. Three other canid species are known as wolves: the Red Wolf , the Ethiopian Wolf , and the extinct Dire Wolf Contents showTocToggle("show","hide")

With him were Angelin Razafimanantsoa and Leon Pierrot Rahajanirina, a tall, thin Malagasy who is Dollar's graduate student. Dollar shushed us with his index finger to his lips. We slowed and stepped quietly through the leaf litter, the forest pressing close on both sides.

Extractions: Vintage Costume Jewelry AGE LINE - Lines occurring on old ivory, that appear blue or black, resulting from dirt filling in to cracks over a period of time. ALABRITE- A combination of alabaster powder and a matrix. It is a pale yellow color when new, but will darken with age. Look for mold lines, air bubbles, and a texture that fells "rougher" than true ivory. ANTLER- Antler is a natural ivory substitute. Deer, Elk, Moose and Caribou (Raindeer) antler are commonly used. Antlers are pure bone, the fastest bone growth known. Antler will generally appear more coarse and porous than bone and will lack any traces of striations and should display little or no sense of longitudinal graininess. In cross sections irregular holes appear rather than the regular narrow channels seen in bone. Except in the most heavily worked objects, traces of the spongy interior of antler are usual preserved. There is no marrow cavity as in bone.

Wolf Population But as much as humans invoke wolves to arouse fear, these canines Obviously, it s important to acknowledge that the endangered Species Act worked. http://www.freep.com/voices/editorials/ewolf19_20041119.htm
Extractions: E-MAIL THIS STORY PRINTER-FRIENDLY FORMAT November 19, 2004 Wolves did not fare well in the presidential campaign. In one of the Republicans' anti-John Kerry commercials, a pack of wolves symbolizing terrorism prowled through a forest as a voice warned that "weakness attracts those who are waiting to do America harm." But as much as humans invoke wolves to arouse fear, these canines generally shy away from people. That they again range across the upper Great Lakes is testament to the Endangered Species Act and to dedicated activists, researchers and wildlife crews who fought for them. The Upper Peninsula now hosts at least 77 wolf packs, and a wolf found near Rogers City this fall raises the possibility that they also are crossing the Mackinac Straits. This winter's census may answer that question. But the bigger issue is how much protection to keep giving the gray wolf, with the remnant Minnesota population having expanded across northern Wisconsin and into the UP. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service already has moved the wolf from an endangered to a threatened species, and it now wants to drop all federal protection in 21 Northeastern states.
