We report on observations of chameleons endemic to the Cameroon highlands between May 2003 and December 2005. Six species already known from this range were observed in the course of fieldwork. Our records extend the known range of Chamaeleo montium, C. pfefferi, and C. w. wiedersheimi to Koano and the Mbulu Hills. The later was also recorded on Mount Mbam. The species exhibit varied and overla...

In 1998, Ericsson acquired ACC as part of its plan to reshape the company to meet the communication challenges of the next millennium. ACC has had a long history in the early pioneering development of the Arpanet—the prolog to the Internet. Santa Barbara (ACC’s headquarters) was the site of one of the first of four nodes to be knitted together, in 1969, to provide the world’s first packet-switc...

Understanding the patterns of gene flow of an endangered species metapopulation occupying a fragmented habitat is crucial for landscape-level conservation planning and devising effective conservation strategies. Tigers (Panthera tigris) are globally endangered and their populations are highly fragmented and exist in a few isolated metapopulations across their range. We used multi-locus genotypi...

We studied the physical, chemical, and microbiological factors that influence drinking water quality processed from River Tigris, and of the three main drinking water purification stations located at different parts of Tigris River, along with evaluation of drinking water of Al-Shula region in Baghdad city. Water samples were taken monthly from December 2009 to September 2010. Physical and chem...

Food habits of tigers Panthera tigris and population attributes of prey species (population structure, density and biomass) were studied in the tropical dry deciduous forest of Pench National Park, Central India, from November 1998 to April 1999. Scat analysis and line transect method were used to estimate tiger food habits and density of major prey species, respectively. The 61.1 km intensive ...

Although significantly more money is spent on the conservation of tigers than on any other threatened species, today only 3200 to 3600 tigers roam the forests of Asia, occupying only 7% of their historical range. Despite the global significance of and interest in tiger conservation, global approaches to plan tiger recovery are partly impeded by the lack of a consensus on the number of tiger sub...
