Sun Bears: WhoZoo In Asia, many of the endangered species are decimated for the dinner tables In fact,their teethes are flatter than other bears and, the canines are long enough http://www.whozoo.org/Intro98/kenneke/ekelustzone-final.html
Extractions: Name: Malayan Sun bears Scientific name: Helarctos malayanus Habitat: Makes it home in low land tropical and rain forest area of Southeastern Asia. Status: Due to habitat destruction serious threat is Asian pet trade. Also different parts are believe to potent medicines, especially gallbladders. Diet consists mostly of termites, birds, small mammals, and even bits of oil palms, and other commercial crops. Diet in the zoo: omnivorous diet. Location in the zoo: Asian Falls General information Special anatomical, physiological or behavioral adaptations Their jaws are disproportionately large to break open hard fruit such as coconuts. Their tongue is extraordinarily long to get insects out of logs. The ears of the Malayan sun bear are smaller and rounder than that of other bears. In fact, their teethes are flatter than other bears and, the canines are long enough to protrude between lips. Comments about the Sun bear of the Fort Worth Zoo Personal Observations The skin of the bear is covered with a black coat made of sleek, short hair. It has a white or yellowish patch on its chest shaped like half moon and a muzzle that is yellowed and shorter than that of the black bear. In fact the claws of the Malayan sun bear is approximately six inches and are curved with hairless soles that serves as an adaptive measure to help the bear in climbing trees. At the Zoo, the bear was very friendly and playful. Don't be deceived by this reaction of the sun bear and think that they are not dangerous. From upon visiting the Zoo, I was told that these animals, in the wild are very dangerous and indeed fearful.

Extractions: Working Dogs Around the World This remarkable tribute to working dogs opens with a gallery of photos of the 21 dogs profiled in the book. From the Newfoundland Mas, Italys premier water rescue dog, to Tammy, a South African Border Collie protecting rare marine animals, Dogs with Jobs visits working canines in the US, Canada, Europe, Guam, Africa, England, and Australia to laud the performances of purebred and mixed breed dogs in both common and obscure jobs. Along with the sheep-herders, search and rescue dogs, and police dogs, the book profiles Snooper, a beagle who sniffs out termites; Buster, an Australian Cattle Dog who herds cattle; Wolf, a performing Borzoi; Kavik, a wolfdog movie and television star; Elmer, an Iditarod sled dog; Flintis, an Anatolian Shepherd who guard sheep and cheetahs; and Yanka and King, German Shepherds who sniff out land mines in Bosnia. The authors introduce their homage to working dogs with a quick look at the senses that make mans best friend a capable working partner. Understanding the canine characteristics that make one dog a good search and rescue dog and another an ideal flock guardian enhances human knowledge and appreciation of these extraordinary animals.

Extractions: This isn't a primer. It's a proper scientific text on canid behaviour. If you're at all serious about the subject, I recommend it: it's lucid, detailed and rather fun. I give details of its contents below. If your interest is less formal, don't be put off by the term 'scientific'. Michael Fox writes well and sometimes rather beautifully. He leavens the solid facts with anecdotes of his experiences with canids - the story of a captive's wolf attack on him is particularly gripping. (He doesn't blame the wolf.) Yes, there is a certain amount of highly technical information, but the author has put most of it into one chapter. In the rest of the book, he manages the difficult trick of making it accessible and useful to both experts and laymen.
Extractions: For anyone with a serious interest in Wolf Ecology or Dog Psychology this is a'Must Read!'. In the book Mech draws on his own observations of wolf behaviour, as well as those of other influential wolf researchers. Full of information and observation on the ecology, sociology, behaviour and communication of wolves, I have found this book invaluable in my research into Dog Physcology, and have even applied some of what I learnt from its pages to the training of my Inuit pup.

Extractions: Callithrix jacchus Marmosets and tamarins are found primarily in the tropical rainforests of South America with a few remnant populations located in Central America. The common marmoset is distributed throughout the Atlantic Coastal Forest of northeastern Brazil. The home range of a marmoset group can vary from 5,000 to 65,000 square meters (1.2-16 acres). On any one day a marmoset group will travel about 500 to 1000 meters. The common marmoset is entirely arboreal (tree dwelling) and prefers secondary or disturbed forests and edge habitat. This species may also be found in coastal and upland scrub forest, gallery forests and even gardens and parks of South American cities, such as Natal and Joao Pessoa. Wherever they are found, their home range will typically include a variety of habitat types.

Muskin 1984) concluded that behavioral and morphological characters show that C. aurita of southeastern Brazil is a species distinct from C. jacchus. Head and body length is 180-300 mm, tail length is 172-405 mm, and weight is usually 230-453 grams. The general coloration of C. jacchus is agouti gray; its tail has alternating broad blackish and narrow pale bands. There are long tufts in front of, and often above and behind, the base of the ears, and these tufts, along with other areas of the head, vary among subspecies as follows:

Extractions: Home Photo Album Why Adopt? Adoption Sites ... Save a Stray Dog Family , group of at least 36 species of carnivorous mammals that includes the wolf coyote jackal fox , common zorro, dingo , dhole (red dog), and domestic dog Dogs, also called canids, have large canine teeth, long muzzles, and blunt, nonretractable claws; all but the African hunting dog have five toes on the forefeet and four toes on the hind feet. They vary in size from the tiny desert-dwelling fennec , which weighs 1.5 kg (3.2 lb), to the gray or timber wolf, which weighs 20 to 80 kg (44 to 175 lb). Canids are found throughout all the continents except Antarctica and in nearly every climatic zone; the arctic fox lives on ice floes and above timberlines, while the rare bush dog inhabits savannas of equatorial South America. Canids show remarkable genetic plasticity ; that is, strains or varieties of species rapidly adapt their size and other physical characteristics to different climates and habitats. The Australian dingo has probably adapted twice, first to become domesticated in prehistoric Asia and then to become a wild species in Australia when it was introduced there about 10,000 years ago. General Behavior Canids have highly developed senses of smell and hearing, enabling them to hunt by night as well as in the daytime. They work territories, usually at a tireless trot or canter, breaking into a gallop to pursue prey. The long red fox leaps into the air to spot mice, then pounces on them. Canids are essentially carnivorous, but many species will also eat fruit and other vegetable matter to tide them through prey-scarce periods. They feed mainly on mice, voles, and larger rodents, especially rabbits, and will also eat large insects and carrion. Large canids also prey on hoofed animals, such as antelope, caribou, and deer.

I also invite you to share with me those sites you know of that I haven't found yet. Just click on the running wolf towards the bottom of this page to contact me about these sites. Many thanks in advance. As said before, my screen name should show something of these feelings for wolves . I did say "regardez mon pseudonyme" on my home page. The translation into English is "she wolf." There is also another petition you can sign in support of the wolves at Help Save the Wolves . You can go to this link also to send a letter to Gale Norton, expressing your outrage about the reduction of protection for the wolves. Do this for the wolves and for the children. The California Wolf Center could use your help. It is still suffering from the devastating effects of the fire, and needs help to rebuild. Please visit the link above to see what you can do to help. On this page there are many sites to visit to learn about wolves and what you can do to help protect these noble animals. These sites below vary in content. Some are informational, others just show the respect and the feelings of others about wolves, and some are current news links regarding the status of current wolf populations. As I said earlier, wolves have been my passion for so long that I don't know when it started. All I know is that I have always felt a deep connection to them, and will do whatever I can to help protect their existence. What started out as just a page of favorite links has now become an informational one, one I also hope will inspire others to do the same after visiting some of the sites below. I've added the alphabetical listings below to make it easier to navigate through this page.

Extractions: April 10, 2001 Four wild dogs were released into the Umfolozi Game Reserve in Zululand on March 30 as part of The Green Trust's ongoing Wild Dog Project. (The Green Trust is managed by the World Wide Fund For Nature - South Africa and financed by Nedbank.) Wild dogs are critically endangered, with only about 4 000 left in the world. The dogs - two males and two females - had been kept in a boma (outside enclosure) for several months. On Friday 30 March, the boma was opened and a fresh impala carcass left in the grass outside to entice the four canines from their temporary home. The Wild Dog Project in the Umfolozi reserve is a necessary intervention. "If the wild dog populations in South Africa are not actively managed, the wild dog faces extinction," states Wild Dog Project Co-ordinator, Michael Somers. "Our work at Umfolozi is not to build up pack numbers in the park - it is not big enough for this - but rather to generate a wild dog gene pool so that larger parks can be restocked." He believes the only long-term solution to the problem is the creation of transfrontier parks that will give wild dogs enough room to roam. The only park with viable populations at the moment is the Kruger National Park.

Extractions: Because some bears, as a result of their interaction with human kind, can become very skillful at finding and eating human food, they may develop into "problem bears." This sometimes leads to punitive action by authorities including relocation and occasionally and unfortunately the bears ultimate demise. In other words: "A fed bear is a dead bear".
