European "Socialists" Agree To Drive Bluefin Tuna Extinct
2008-11-29 06:00:00 Updated November 29:Environmentalists who insist that socialism or social democracy will save the environment have always worried me. Canada's been ruled by social democrats for a long time, and it's horrible on environmental issues.Interestingly, the radical rightwing US Bush regime proposed a reduced quota to keep the bluefin tuna from going extinct, and the far rightwing governments of Guatemala and Panama amazingly agreed to it.So who shot it down? A bunch of "socialists" in Europe, in particular the leftwing Spanish government. Looks like the Arab governments of Mediterranean (presumably including "socialist" Ghaddafi and the Socialists in Algeria) are the ones who really shot it down. 90% of the remaining stocks are in the Mediterranean. On the European side, the criminals were Spain, Italy and probably France.The impetus? Protect the local fishing trade, which is big money. But once the bluefins go extinct, and they will under this plan, the amount of money the industry wil...

Wolverine Sighted in Shasta County, California
2008-10-08 04:51:00 There was an unconfirmed sighting of a wolverine in Shasta County, California two weeks ago, on Friday, September 26, 2008. The sighting occurred at 1 PM on a sunny day. The wolverine was crossing Highway 89 from north to south. It was walking fast more than running.It was described as paler than most photos the observer had seen - more of a dark tan. This color is actually common for wolverines, and if this was an actual California wolverine, this subspecies was known to have a much lighter coloration. He observed it crossing the road at about 50 feet away until it vanished into the forest.The observer assumed it was a pretty common animal until he went on the Net and did some research and found out how rare it was. He reported the sighting to this blog, and I believe him. Anyone who wants to talk to the observer about this sighting can try to contact him via me at my email on the top right of my blog page.This area of California has actually had a number of wolverine sightings in ...

On Spotted Owls
2008-09-08 00:24:00 There are three subspecies of spotted owls in the US. The Northern Spotted Owl (NSO) ranged from Oregon and Washington down into the California coast ranges and over into the Siskiyous and Cascades. The California Spotted Owl (CASPO) lives in the Sierra Nevada, down into the Tehachapis and and into the mountain ranges of Southern California.The Southern California population is isolated in mountain ranges that are not connected and is projected to go extinct over at most 100-200 years. Before mass settlement of Southern California, CASPO may have moved from range to range via river corridors, but now that is not possible. The Techachapi CASPO is probably not sustainable either. CASPO also lives in the Coast Ranges south of San Fransisco.The Mexican Spotted Owl lives in the Southwest, mostly in Arizona and New Mexico. It was listed as threatened recently and recently had a huge amount of critical habitat set aside. It seems to be threatened by cattle grazing, but I forget how. Seriou...

Northern Leopard Frog Needs Listing
2008-09-04 16:50:00 This long pdf, available for download on this blog, is a copy of the petition filed to list the Western population of the Northern Leopard Frog (NLF) as an endangered species in the US. Genetically, the Western population is genetically distinct from the eastern population, and may merit splitting into a subspecies or even a separate species.The Center for Native Ecosystems, Biodiversity Conservation Alliance, Defenders of Black Hills, Forest Guardians, Center for Biological Diversity, The Ark Initiative, Native Ecosystems Council, Rocky Mountain Clean Air Action and Jeremy Nichols filed the petition in June 2006.I guess there hasn't been any action on it yet, and they will probably have to sue to get any action at all.I never even knew the Leopard Frog was in danger. They are very rare and probably extirpated here in California. They are most common in the Midwest. The document is quite long at 200 pages, but I read through most of it easily.Yet I am uncertain what is causing the ...

Deep Ecology - An Overview
2008-07-12 04:38:00 Updated July 13:One thing people ought to know about this blog is that one of my philosophies is Deep Ecology. Click that link and you so you can try to figure out what it means. It was part of a debate in the environmentalist (especially radical environmental) movement that probably really got going in the 1990's.It had several rivals, including Social Ecology, promoted by a fellow named Murray Bookchin. Deep Ecology was promoted by a guy named Arne Naess. There's also Ecofeminism, which I'm not really up on, because I can't stand most kinds of feminism, although pro-porn feminists sounds like they are after my heart.To me, Deep Ecology means something like, "Up with the animals, down with the people." I'm not saying kill the people or anything like that, but I think in general, most species have a right to survive just like people. And no, White nationalists may not give me a debate in the comments section of this post about why their race is an endangered species.Notable Dee...

The Sierra Nevada Red Fox
2008-06-16 02:26:00 Updated June 22:This was formerly part of another post, More California Wolverine Photos in the Sierra, that I decided to cut up into two posts in order to focus this one on the Sierra Nevada Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes necator). This fox is very rare in the areas and it seems to qualify as endangered on the basis of the Endangered Species Act. I think it needs an emergency listing.The only confirmed population is a tiny population of only 10-15 foxes in and around Lassen National Park where the Northern Sierra meets the Southern Cascades.This area has historically seen more sightings than any other part of California (sighting map for Northern California). This concentration is focused in Lassen, Tehama and Shasta Counties in and around Lassen Park. There have also been a few sightings in Modoc, Siskiyou and Trinity Counties.The existence of the Sierra Nevada red fox has recently been confirmed by a team led by John Perrine of UC Berkeley. The team has located a small population of 10-1...

China Visa As Endangered Species.
2008-05-06 05:12:00 Uber-reliable Danwei just did a post on the current situation (or at least word on the current situation) involving China visas. The post is entitled, China Visa Confusion, but, unfortunately, the post itself is quite clear: getting a Chinese visa of any kind between now and October is going to be extremely tough. If anyone can confirm or deny the information set forth in Danwei, please comment below. If all of this is correct, I suspect Hong Kong, Singapore, Seoul, and Bangkok, will very soon start having an influx of temporary refugees. If all of this is correct, many are going to be hurt by it.

Tahoe Wolverine is Not From California
2008-04-13 10:16:00 The first wolverine detected in California in 86 years, photographed at a camera station at Sagehen Creek near Lake Tahoe on February 28, 2008, has now been shown to be not from either California or Washington.Scientists located wolverine scat near where the photo was shot and analyzed it for genes. A single gene was sequenced, the wolverine was shown to be a male, and the gene has been reported only from wolverines in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. It is also found in southern Canada.The only conclusion possible is that the wolverine is from the Rocky Mountains and is not a native California wolverine. No one has any idea how it got to California. It's pretty hard to live-trap these things and transport them unless you are a wildlife biologist.It doesn't make much sense that this wolverine cruised down from the Snake River region in Western Idaho along eastern Oregon to the Cascades, then down the Sierras to Tahoe.At least they are back in California, but I never thought they left a...

Furthermore, there have been some tantalizing sightings in Minnesota and possibly in Iowa in recent years. It is distinctly possible the wolverines may be reclaiming some of their historical territory in the Upper Midwest. If so, this is fascinating indeed.A wolverine was recently photographed in Michigan, where they were reportedly extirpated almost 200 years ago.

The famous Russian neo-Nazi video is on this blog here.This post was split off from an earlier post that got too large, California Wolverine Re-discovered After 85 Years. This particular post will deal with the question of wolverines in the state of Nevada. The truth is that wolverines do not exist in Nevada and have not been reported there since the late 1800's, when they were reported from the ranges in the northeastern part of the state.But given that wolverines seem to be in the process of recovering their range in the Western US, it seems plausible that wolverines may reappear in Nevada at some date. They have been seen on Steens Mountain in southeastern Oregon near the Nevada border. It is also possible that they may drift down from southern Oregon into northern Nevada.At any rate, this post will examine historical locations for wolverines in Nevada, and include photos of the ranges where t...

California Wolverines In Oregon

The famous Russian neo-Nazi video is on this blog here.This post was split off from an earlier post that got too large, California Wolverine Re-discovered After 85 Years. This particular post will deal with the question of California wolverines in the state of Oregon.It is true that there have been no proven occurrences of wolverines in Oregon since 1992, but there is considerable anecdotal evidence that they live there, including many sightings. Three wolverines have been collected since 1965, one live and two dead. That's three more than have been collected in California.Further, arial surveys in recent years have found discovered what appear to be wolverine tracks, snow tunnels and in a few cases winter dens on the top of high Oregon peaks. No such findings have turned up in California, but no arial surveys have yet been attempted either. All of this implies that the wolverine is in better sh...

California Wolverines In Washington
2008-04-12 13:43:00 The latest death toll figures from Hurricane Katrina can be seen on this website here. The famous Russian neo-Nazi video is on this blog here.This post was split off from an earlier post that got too large, California Wolverine Re-discovered After 85 Years. This particular post will deal with the question of California wolverines in the state of Washington.First of all, wolverines have been proven to exist in Washington in the past three years. The report on the Methow District of the Okanagan Forest below shows that two wolverines were trapped on the forest in 2005. This is excellent news and is the only report of California wolverines being live-trapped anywhere on Earth, or possibly ever.In addition, wolverines have been photographed on the Wenatchee National Forest and on the Yakima Indian Reservation in 2006. In 2005, fur was collected south of Danville on the Okanagan.That adds up to five verified sightings of wolverines in the past three years. Compared to California and Oreg...

Polar Bears are a Prop, Not An Endangered Species
2008-04-03 12:00:00 Iceberg formed by waves, not “global warming™.” Left-wing global warming windbags lambasted the president for not taking swift action in protecting the endangered polar bears. That’s right. We have solved all the problems in American concerning humans, so we can worry about polar bears. Socialist, I mean, Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer pointed some fingers today: “The Bush administration is violating the law, and that is why we’re here today,” said Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), chairwoman of the Environment and Public Works Committee, opening the hearing. “These species do not have an indefinite time to be saved. . . . Time is running out for the polar bear, and time has run out for this decision.” Here’s the thing on this one: the polar bears are not declining in population. The action needs to be taken because they might drop in population because of global warming (try to remain calm.) One of the most controversi...

More California Wolverine Photos in the Sierra
2008-03-23 11:11:00 Following up on our earlier post on the first positive detection of a California wolverine since 1922, that sighting led an interagency group of researchers on an intensive hunt for wolverines in the area, and that hunt has now revealed an incredible two new photos of wolverines in the area north of Tahoe.A side view of a wolverine in a photo from 10 days ago probably taken within 15-20 miles of the original photo location at Sagehen Creek in the Tahoe National Forest. That is a hair trap that used to have some bait on it, but the bait was eaten by some other animal. The photo indicates that this is a wolverine all right. It can't be anything else.It is not known if the three photos depict one, two or three separate wolverines, but this is great news.The interagency team consisted of researchers from the Forest Service, California Department of Fish and Game and Katie Moriarty, the Oregon State University grad student who took the original shot.

California Wolverine Re-discovered After 85 Years
2008-03-07 09:54:00 In stunning news, researchers at Oregon State University snapped a photo of a California Wolverine (Gulo luscus luteus) north of Lake Tahoe between Truckee and Sierraville in the Tahoe National Forest.A photo of the first California Wolverine documented since 1922. This wild region where they were found in being proposed as a wilderness area by Senator Barbara Boxer. The photo shows the wolverine from the rear view. It is probably next to a Red Fir. In the background is what appears to be a White Fir and the tree in the foreground looks like some kind of pine. In this part of the Sierras, the Red Fir Zone (where this photo was probably taken) starts around 7,000 feet elevation.A much larger version of this pic, too large to put on this blog, is available here on the researchers' website.The area is in the northern Sierra Nevada Mountains in northern California.What they mean by confirmed sighting, is that it has to be backed up by a photo, fur or scat.

Cloning For the Revival Of The Endangered Species
2008-01-21 05:02:00 Reproductive cloning is regarded as having a potential for conserving endangered wildlife species. A recent breakthrough in biotechnology has been the successful cloning of endangered wild Asian ox (Bos gaurus).The scientists have successfully cloned the endangered species by electro fusing fibroblasts cells from the animal’s skin with enucleated bovine oocytes.The genome of the animal was gaurus in origin whereas the mitochondrial DNA was bovine.In the future, the same technique may be used to clone an extinct bucardo mountain goat from preserved cells by using the present day goats as host mothers. Cloning is definitely going to enhance the biodiversity by ensuring the existence of rare breeds and endangered species.The National Institute of Science and Media keeps a close eye on the latest developments in the world of life science. Joel Ball is a well known authority on biotechnology and has many titles published under the NISM name.
Polar Bears Endangered Species List is Being Considered Maybe, Polar Bear D
2008-01-19 15:14:00 Is talk going around about the Polar Bears being put Endangered Species list. For the reason of global warming it would the first animal on the list for that reason. It is a good idea to do because out of all the animals I think they are in trouble the most. I think the polar bear is very much in danger of extinction. My opinion it could happen sooner than predicted them to gone from the wild forever. I think they should be put on the list. I would assume that would be an easy decision but no. They have postponed the final decision because they are not sure they should added to list. Some of the reason not being added is because it would stop oil companies from drilling oil. Some considered drilling the oil to put even more strain on the polar bear it could make then extinct quicker. Some saying the postponing the decision is all about oil not thoughts of the bear. Sometime not everything is about money and oil even though is a need for it. But it is about doing something right and ...
