Book excerpt: The Judean desert in the area of Ein Gedi is the lowest spot on Earth, yet the wild goats of the area survive and multiply. Oases in the desert provide water and support some vegetation, in addition to the grazing plots developed by Kubbtz Ein Gedi. The Nubian ibex is a Graceful animal, quick and alert in its movements in the rocky terrain. The film shows the 'life style' of the ibex-mating habits, care of the young, and its battle for survival.
Book Synopsis A Field Guide to the Mammals of Egypt by : Richard Hoath
Download or read book A Field Guide to the Mammals of Egypt written by Richard Hoath and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Field Guide to the Mammals of Egypt is the first comprehensive field guide to every mammal species recorded in contemporary Egypt, from gazelle to gerbil, from hyena to hyrax. Each mammal species is described in detail, with reference to identification features, status, habitat, and habits, and with comparisons to similar species. A map is also provided for each species, clearly showing its current, and in some cases historical, range. Every species is meticulously illustrated--the bats and sea mammals in detailed black-and-white illustrations, all other species in scientifically accurate color plates. Additional vignettes emphasize aspects of mammal behavior, cover the minutiae of such features as the nose-leafs and ear structure of the various bat species, and illustrate the tracks and trails of the more commonly encountered mammals. This is an indispensable reference work for anyone interested in the wildlife of Egypt, from professional biologists to desert travelers and interested amateurs. Furthermore, as it describes and illustrates every whale and dolphin species recorded in Egyptian waters, including the Red Sea, it will be of special significance to anyone diving in the region. The book is compact, easy to slip into a daypack, and well up to the rigors of desert travel.
Book Synopsis Demography, Movement, and Social Structure of the Nubian Ibex (Capra Nubiana) Population of the Judean Desert, and Conservation Implications by : Jonathan Tichon

This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nubian ibex is a threatened desert-dwelling mountain ungulate, whose ecology is littleunderstood, in part, due to the rugged terrain and remote locations which it inhabits. Here Ireport fundamental findings concerning the species demography, spatial distribution,behaviour, and movement using the ibex population of the North Judean Desert in Israel as amodel. This population resides in two adjacent nature reserves ( ̳Mazok Ha'Etekim NatureReserve ̳-MENR, and ̳En Gedi Nature Reserve'-En Gedi), with En Gedi being a spatiallynested sub-population within the larger North Judean Desert population. I investigated threeaspects - demography, movement, and social structure - in parallel to a genetic study that wasconducted on the same populations. Combined, these aspects elucidate potential threats to thisand other ibex populations stemming from the species ecology, behaviour, and theirinteraction with the study-area's specific landscape attributes. -- From the Abstract.

Book Synopsis Wild Sheep and Goats and Their Relatives by : David M. Shackleton
Download or read book Wild Sheep and Goats and Their Relatives written by David M. Shackleton and published by World Conservation Union. This book was released on 1997 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wild caprinae, including sheep and goats, are an extremely valuable group of mammals. While most live in mountains, some inhabit desert grasslands, tropical forests or even arctic tundra. They range in size from the 30kg goral to the 350kg musk ox and display a variety of horn shapes and sizes as well as coat and body coloration. They are highly prized by hunters on account of their horns and their coats. Today, despite their important domestic relations, many wild caprinae are in danger of being lost forever: over 70 of caprinae taxa are threatened and over 30 endangered or critical. The main threats to them are over-harvesting, habitat loss and resource competition from livestock. Some face an additional threat from trophy hunters. Despite this, however, conservation legislation is either absent or, more often, poorly enforced. This action plan explores the value of caprinae to biodiversity, the threats facing the members of the species, and makes recommendations to reverse current trends. It also emphasizes the importance to carpinae conservation and survival of close collaboration among all parties involved in wildlife conservation including local peoples and hunting organizations, governments, scientists and academic institutions.
Book Synopsis Genetic Management of Fragmented Animal and Plant Populations by : Richard Frankham
Download or read book Genetic Management of Fragmented Animal and Plant Populations written by Richard Frankham and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest unmet challenges in conservation biology is the genetic management of fragmented populations of threatened animal and plant species. More than a million small, isolated, population fragments of threatened species are likely suffering inbreeding depression and loss of evolutionary potential, resulting in elevated extinction risks. Although these effects can often be reversed by re-establishing gene flow between population fragments, managers very rarely do this. On the contrary, genetic methods are used mainly to document genetic differentiation among populations, with most studies concluding that genetically differentiated populations should be managed separately, thereby isolating them yet further and dooming many to eventual extinction Many small population fragments are going extinct principally for genetic reasons. Although the rapidly advancing field of molecular genetics is continually providing new tools to measure the extent of population fragmentation and its genetic consequences, adequate guidance on how to use these data for effective conservation is still lacking. This accessible, authoritative text is aimed at senior undergraduate and graduate students interested in conservation biology, conservation genetics, and wildlife management. It will also be of particular relevance to conservation practitioners and natural resource managers, as well as a broader academic audience of conservation biologists and evolutionary ecologists.

Book Synopsis Abundance from the Desert by : Raymond Farrin
Download or read book Abundance from the Desert written by Raymond Farrin and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-29 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abundance from the Desert provides a comprehensive introduction to classical Arabic poetry, one of the richest of poetic traditions. Covering the period roughly of 500-1250 c.e., it features original translations and illuminating discussions of a number of major classical Arabic poems from a variety of genres. The poems are presented chronologically, each situated within a specific historical and literary context. Together, the selected poems suggest the range and depth of classical Arabic poetic expression; read in sequence, they suggest the gradual evolution of a tradition. Moving beyond a mere chronicle, Farrin outlines a new approach to appreciating classical Arabic poetry based on an awareness of concentric symmetry, in which the poem’s unity is viewed not as a linear progression but as an elaborate symmetrical plot. In doing so, the author presents these works in a broader, comparative light, revealing connections with other literatures. The reader is invited to examine these classical Arabic works not as isolated phenomena—notwithstanding their uniqueness and their association with a discrete tradition—but rather as part of a great multicultural heritage. This pioneering book marks an important step forward in the study of Arabic poetry. At the same time, it opens the door to this rich tradition for the general reader.

Download or read book A Beast the Color of Winter written by and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2002-02-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In North America there is one large animal that belongs almost entirely to the realm of towering rock and unmelting snow. Pressing hard against the upper limit of life's possibilities, it exists higher and steeper throughout the year than any other big beast on the continent. It is possibly the best and most complete mountaineer that ever existed on any continent. Oreamnos americanus is its scientific name. Its common name is mountain goat." Resourceful, belligerent, and unbelievably sure-footed, the mountain goat is a white-coated survivor from the Ice Age. Oreamnos americanus shares its dizzying alpine world with elk, eagles, bighorn sheep, and grizzlies. This first full-length book on the mountain goat offers a superbly written portrait of its life, habits, and environment. Douglas H. Chadwick tracked mountain goat herds for seven years, and his observations are richly textured and replete with fascinating and dramatic details. We learn of the mountain goats' lives from birth to adulthood, their feeding habits, unique social behavior and courtship rituals, and their long history. Chadwick also makes clear the troubling and escalating impact of the modern world on the mountain goat's wilderness home. This Bison Books edition features a new introduction by the author.
