Coyote ( Canis latrans ) Interactions With Humans and Pets Reported in the Canadian Print Media (1995–2010)
Interactions with coyotes are a growing management concern in urban North America. We conducted a content analysis of 453 articles addressing coyote events reported in the Canadian print media between 1995 and 2010. There were 119 articles about human–coyote interactions: 32 involved a coyote biting (26) or attempting to bite (6) a person. The first record of a coyote-caused human mortality in Canada occurred in 2009. Ninety-one incidents involve…

Risk Perceptions and Attitudes Toward Cougars in the Southern Foothills of Alberta
The rapid growth of rural residential development in the southern foothills of Alberta is leading to a more heterogeneous rural population and environment. Human encroachment into cougar habitat may lead to increased instances of cougar–human interactions. Surveys (n = 1,508) were sent to foothills residents in the urban–rural fringe of Calgary, Alberta to determine risk perceptions and attitudes toward cougars. Risk perceptions were analyzed for…

Corpulent Cattle and Milk Machines
The concept of a "breed" of domestic cattle is predominantly a social construct. The late eighteenth century development of intensive selective (in)breeding of livestock produced breeds that were visually distinguishable from each other. The adoption of breed standards was facilitated in part through paintings and drawings of idealized animals. These "ideal types" or "standards of perfection" further served as targets for breeders who attempted t…
