The Fair Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship
There is an urgent need to improve the infrastructure supporting the reuse of scholarly data. A diverse set of stakeholders—representing academia, industry, funding agencies, and scholarly publishers—have come together to design and jointly endorse a concise and measureable set of principles that we refer to as the FAIR Data Principles. The intent is that these may act as a guideline for those wishing to enhance the reusability of their data hold…
People and Wildlife
Human-wildlife conflict is a major issue in conservation. As people encroach into natural habitats, and as conservation efforts restore wildlife to areas where they may have been absent for generations, contact between people and wild animals is growing. Some species, even the beautiful and endangered, can have serious impacts on human lives and livelihoods. Tigers kill people, elephants destroy crops and African wild dogs devastate sheep herds l…

The Greater Yellowstone policy debate
Attitudes and knowledge of people living in the greater Yellowstone ecosystem
Concerns over threats to the integrity of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) have increasingly led to calls for coordinated management of the region. To be most effective, GYE management requires an understanding of the attitudes and knowledge of local people. A structured knowledge and attitude survey of 308 people living within the GYE was conducted. A large majority of respondents recognized the importance of coordinated management of the…
Rethinking the “vision”; exercise in the greater Yellowstone ecosystem
In 1987 the U.S. Forest Service and the National Park Service launched a joint coordination and planning process for the Greater Yellowstone region, commonly called the “Vision”; exercise, and produced a draft document in 1990 and a final in 1991. Public reaction was fierce: Traditional commodity extraction industries strongly opposed it, while conservationists failed to support or improve it. The process was perceived by many as a failure. Throu…
Attitudes Toward the Endangered Eastern Barred Bandicoot
Endangered species recovery requires a rapid, concerted effort on several fronts, including an understanding of sociological considerations such as the values and attitudes of local people. We examined the values and attitudes of residents living in and around the City of Hamilton, Victoria, toward the endangered, mainland Australia population of eastern barred bandicoots (Perameles gunnii) and bandicoot conservation efforts using a sample teleph…
The greater Yellowstone ecosystem policy arena
The six‐million hectare mountainous region surrounding Yellowstone National Park has become the focus of a vigorous policy debate. At issue is the appropriate mix of preservation and development of the public lands that make up the “Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.”; Administration of the region is fragmented among twenty‐eight different governmental agencies, making management of wide‐ranging wildlife and other shared resources difficult. To confr…
Paradigms and Ferrets
Protecting endangered species is a very complicated scientific task, requiring ingenuity and imagination. Yet the organizations to which we have given this task may be little suited to it. Examining the ecology of black-footed ferrets and their near-extinction under government management, the authors question the adequacy of traditional wildlife management approaches whose calculative rationality fails to respond to the often rapidly changing and…
Food adaptations of a transplanted Japanese macaque troop (Arashiyama West)
Agonistic behavior in a transplanted troop of Japanese macaques
Elemental hair analysis of Japanese macaques transplanted to the United States
Some spacing relations among the central males of a transplanted troop of Japanese macaques (Arashiyama west)
Some relationships Between Prairie Dogs, Black-Footed Ferrets, Paleo-Indians, and Ethnographically Known Tribes
Black-footed ferrets (Mustela nigripes) are one of the rarest mammals of North America; ferrets are most often associated with prairie dogs (Cynomys sp.) on which they are thought to be obi igatory predators. Ferret and prairie dog skeletal remains have been found from several sites occupied by Paleo-Indians; these sites are described. The recent history of five Indian groups contain reference to ferrets and prairie dogs: Sioux, Blackfeet, Crow, …
