Entrevista en La Diez Capital radio al Director de la Fundación Loro parque, Dr. Javier Almunia. ¿Los santuarios marinos garantizan el bienestar de los cetáceos? Un nuevo estudio publicado en el Journal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens pone en duda la efectividad de los santuarios marinos como una solución óptima para mejorar el bienestar de cetáceos que viven bajo cuidado humano. La investigación se centró en el Sea Life Trust Beluga Whale Sanctuary, ubicado en Islandia, que acoge a dos belugas trasferidas de un acuario en China. Tras cinco años de operaciones, los resultados revelan importantes desafíos y limitaciones del modelo de santuario marino. Se trata del único santuario de cetáceos operativo que existe en el mundo, por lo que los resultados representan toda la evidencia científica disponible sobre el mantenimiento de cetáceos en estos recintos. ¿Una promesa incumplida? Pese a las expectativas de que un entorno natural mejoraría el bienestar de las belugas, el estudio señala que las dos residentes del santuario, Little Grey y Little White, pasaron el 92,6% del tiempo en un estanque cubierto tradicional. Solo un 3,4% del periodo operacional se utilizó la bahía del santuario, a menudo promovida como una “solución natural” para su bienestar. Las razones para este limitado acceso incluyen problemas de salud, como úlceras gástricas y disminución del apetito, así como la necesidad de proteger a las belugas de condiciones climáticas adversas. Estos hallazgos cuestionan la creencia de que simplemente trasladar cetáceos a un entorno marino garantiza una mejor calidad de vida. Lecciones clave para el futuro El informe destaca lagunas en la planificación y ejecución del proyecto, como la falta de un programa de comportamiento estructurado y un plan de adiestramiento. Los autores destacan que el modelo actual requiere revisión y refinamiento para abordar los retos de salud y bienestar asociados con el traslado a estos entornos. “El caso de Little Grey y Little White evidencia que las condiciones naturales, por sí solas, no aseguran un mejor bienestar para los cetáceos. Se necesita una planificación mucho más robusta y soluciones personalizadas,” explicó Javier Almunia, uno de los autores del estudio. Transparencia y evidencia científica La investigación también destaca la falta de acceso público a datos clave sobre el bienestar de los cetáceos en el santuario. “Los intentos de obtener información detallada sobre el control del bienestar directamente del personal del santuario o sus consultores se han visto obstaculizados por acuerdos de confidencialidad que restringen el intercambio de datos”, explican los autores. A su juicio, la publicación de información detallada sobre las evaluaciones de bienestar, tanto positivas como negativas, facilitaría un análisis más completo de los resultados obtenidos. Este enfoque permitiría a investigadores, legisladores y al público en general comprender mejor los desafíos y avances asociados con los santuarios marinos. Además, una mayor transparencia podría contribuir a mejorar las prácticas operativas y fomentar debates más informados sobre el cuidado de los cetáceos bajo cuidado humano. “La hipótesis fundacional de que los entornos naturales mejoran inherentemente el bienestar de los cetáceos no parece cumplirse en la práctica. La repetida necesidad de devolver a piscina convencionales por razones de salud o bienestar, junto con el limitado tiempo que pasan en la bahía (sólo el 3,4% del periodo operativo), sugiere que las condiciones naturales por sí solas podrían no garantizar un mayor bienestar”, concluyen los autores Aunque los santuarios marinos se presentan como un término medio entre el mantenimiento en centros zoológicos y la vida en la naturaleza, la investigación indica que no garantizan mejores resultados de bienestar de manera inherente. Este hallazgo insta a un enfoque más matizado y basado en evidencias para el cuidado de cetáceos.

Las lluvias vuelven a Canarias. La borrasca 'Ivo' trae viento y mala mar a Canarias: lloverá el fin de semana. A pesar de que el archipiélago canario se mantiene al margen del tren de borrascas atlánticas , en las últimas horas ya se han registrado rachas superiores a 80 km/h, oleaje intenso y precipitaciones para el sábado. Hace un año: En lo que va de año en 2023 llegaron a las Islas más de 6.300 personas. Las islas baten su récord de llegadas en 2024 con 46.843 personas. Y este año Canarias podría recibir más de 70.000 migrantes este 2025. Y hoy hace un año: El presidente de Canarias reclama una "respuesta inmediata del Estado" ante la "insostenible" situación migratoria. Hoy se cumplen 1.071 días del cruel ataque e invasión de Rusia a Ucrania. Hoy es jueves 30 de enero de 2025. El Día Internacional del Técnico Electrónico tiene su origen en el año 1980, cuando la Asociación de Técnicos Electrónicos de Córdoba (Asotec), en Colombia, decidió empezar a celebrar esta festividad, con el paso de los años se fue popularizando y en la actualidad es considerada una efeméride internacional. En pocas palabras, es la persona encargada de reparar cualquier dispositivo electrónico, es decir, cualquier objeto que cuente con una placa base o circuito electrónico en su interior, como por ejemplo los hornos de microondas, el sistema de automatización de portones eléctricos o incluso los dispositivos móviles. 1920: Un incendio destruye el Gran Teatro de Madrid. 1930: El Gobierno del general Berenguer sustituye en España al del general Primo de Rivera. 1933: En Alemania, Adolf Hitler asume la Cancillería del Reich. 1938: Formación en Burgos del Primer Gobierno Nacional de España (1938-1939), en el que Francisco Franco asume oficialmente los cargos de Jefe de Estado y de Gobierno. 1948: En Nueva Delhi (capital de India), el fanático hinduista Nathuram Godse asesina al pacifista Mahatma Gandhi, líder de la independencia de India. 1953: España ingresa en la UNESCO. 1997.- Nace la televisión digital en España con la presentación oficial de Canal Satélite Digital. 2018.- El día de su 50 cumpleaños el rey Felipe VI impone el Toisón de Oro a su hija la Princesa Leonor. Santos Lesmes, Abad, Félix y Martina. Un avión con 64 personas a bordo choca contra un helicóptero militar cerca del aeropuerto de Washington. La UE da "pleno apoyo" a Dinamarca ante las amenazas de Trump, dice Costa. La economía española se mantiene fuerte en el cuarto trimestre y cierra 2024 con un crecimiento del 3,2%. El fiscal general niega ante el Supremo que filtrara los correos del caso de la pareja de Ayuso. El Gobierno defiende la “integridad” del fiscal general mientras el PP vuelve a exigir su dimisión. El PP votará 'sí' al nuevo decreto pactado entre el Gobierno y Junts pero critica la "mentira" y el "chantaje". Puigdemont celebra que Sánchez modificara el decreto 'ómnibus': "Gobernar en minoría requiere que negocies". El Gobierno de Canarias pide un decreto exclusivo que garantice el transporte gratuito en las Islas "El sistema de transporte en el Archipiélago presenta "características únicas", insiste la directora general de Transportes. Gobierno y ayuntamientos aceleran para rebajar de dos años a seis meses la licencia para construir viviendas. El Ejecutivo prevé jornadas técnicas con los municipios para aplicar el nuevo decreto que agilizará la tramitación de licencias urbanísticas, que verá la luz en marzo, además de los cambios que va a realizar en la ley del suelo. La potente creación de empleo y la reducción de activos conducen a Canarias a la menor tasa de paro desde 2007. El Archipiélago cierra 2024, el año de todos los récords en turismo, con una tasa de paro del 11,9%, el dato más bajo desde el cuarto trimestre de 2007, cuando llegó al 10,9%; los ocupados superan en 11.200 personas el buen valor de 2023, entonces en más 26.100 anual. Nueva Canarias lamenta la salida del partido del alcalde de Gáldar e insiste en expandir el canarismo de izquierdas. El partido liderado por Román Rodríguez asegura que si el BNR sigue en el espacio del canarismo progresista “se encontrarán” más veces, pero es algo que no sucederá si se dirigen hacia el nacionalismo “conservador”. Tal día como hoy, 30 enero de 1969, The Beatles hacen su última presentación pública dando un concierto improvisado en el techo del estudio de grabación de Londres.

When I was in school, I was presented with book knowledge as if that's all there was to know, don't bother looking further. Geologic knowledge? We know how everything came to be. Zoological information? We know every species, every adaptation, every nuance. Science? Yes, these are theories, but they have been tested and true. Scientists STILL wear the word, 'theory' like a itchy wool coat. It's beyond uncomfortable. But as I grew up and kept looking for knowledge, I saw previously thought extinct animals found. I saw tested theories get rewritten, then disregarded entirely. And that ecosystem of information? It is expanding as we breathe. With advances in instruments alone, we are able to see beneath the surface of the Earth , see further into space, observe particles too small for my brain to comprehend. We don't know it all. We don't know a fraction of what is true. Saying that, is encouraging. It's exciting. There are many breakthroughs yet to be made by future generations. In the words of, UP! Adventure Awaits!Learning about the Emerald Tablet last week drove me to look at secret knowledge and the gatekeepers involved in meting out that information. I learned about powerful occult figure, John Dee, found a man on YouTube digging into old newspapers finding articles from the 1800s that prove North American history isn't accurate as it stands. I also take an important pitstop to talk plainly about the ethics surrounding subconscious and psychic work.

I was thrilled to be able to talk to Dr Eduardo J Fernandez on the podcast. Not only is he an amazing applied behaviour researcher but he is great at putting some of the more technical definitions into easy to understand terminology. Our discussion centres around training as enrichment but there were also some rabbit holes and side stories that we delved into. Eduardo J. Fernandez is a Senior Lecturer of Applied Animal Behaviour and Welfare in the School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences at the University of Adelaide (Australia). He received his Ph.D. in Psychology (minors in Neuroscience and Animal Behavior) from Indiana University, where he worked with the Indianapolis and Cincinnati Zoo. He received his M.S. in Behavior Analysis from the University of North Texas, where he founded the Organization for Reinforcement Contingencies with Animals (ORCA). Most of his past and current work involves behavioral research applied to the welfare and training of zoo, aquarium, and companion animals. His past positions include a Visiting Professorship in the Psychology Department at Seattle Pacific University, a Visiting Professorship in the School of Behavior Analysis at the Florida Institute of Technology, an Affiliate Assistant Professorship in the Psychology Department at the University of Washington, a Research Fellowship with Woodland Park Zoo, and a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship. While working with UW and the Woodland Park Zoo, he started the Behavioral Enrichment Animal Research (BEAR) group, which conducted welfare research with many of the species and exhibits located throughout the zoo. He currently runs the Operant Welfare Lab (OWL), which is dedicated to the use of learning principles to improve the lives of animals. OWL is also part of the broader Animal Behaviour, Welfare, and Anthrozoology Lab (ABWAL; abwal.com). Many of Eduardo's past publications, research projects, and presentations can be found on his ResearchGate profile: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Eduardo-Fernandez-27 Some of the studies/reviews that we mention can be found below and are open access.

Experts at the Memphis Zoo and in China tried various forms of treatment but were unable to resolve the problem, the association said.中国动物园协会表示,2006年,“丫丫”的毛发开始脱落,2014年,毛发脱落的情况恶化。孟菲斯动物园和中国的专家尝试了各种形式的治疗,但无法解决这个问题。Zoological英/ˌzuːəˈlɒdʒɪk(ə)l/ 美/ˌzuːəˈlɑːdʒɪk(ə)l/adj.动物学的

Historically, many if not most scientists dismissed the value of studying wild animals in managed care settings like zoos and aquariums. With dwindling wild populations in need of immediate conservation solutions and increased competition for research funding, the importance and relevance of studying animals in human care has been on the increase. Friend of the podcast, Dr. Jason Bruck and some of his graduate students discuss the challenges and opportunities of developing working relationships with zoological facilities and staff, as well as, the "game changing" emergence of smaller, cheaper, and more powerful technologies with which to study marine and terrestrial animals.

Richard Freeman (born Nuneaton, England, in 1970) is a cryptozoologist, author, zoological journalist, and WebTV Presenter. He is also Zoological Director of the Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ), and co-edits both the journal, Animals & Men and several editions of the annual CFZ Yearbook. Richard Freeman has written, co-written, or edited a number of books, and has contributed widely to both Fortean and zoological magazines, as well as other newspapers and periodicals, including Fortean Times and Paranormal Magazine. He has also lectured across the UK at events such as the Fortean Times Unconvention, the Weird Weekend, Microcon and at museums such as the Natural History Museum and the Grant Museum of Natural History in London. When interviewed by author Nick Redfern in 2005, Freeman claimed an early obsession with the classic science fiction series Dr Who (with Jon Pertwee) had sparked an interest in all things weird. After school he became a zookeeper at Twycross Zoo in the West Midlands and became head keeper of reptiles, working with more than 400 exotic species from ants to elephants (but with a special interest in crocodilians). After leaving the zoo, he worked in an exotic pet shop, a reptile rescue centre, and as a gravedigger. In 1995, Freeman began studying zoology at Leeds University. Whilst on holiday from the university, he learned of the CFZ and bought a copy of the Centre's journal Animals & Men, which left him impressed enough to subscribe and begin contributing. He eventually became the CFZ's Yorkshire representative and, once the course had ended, moved to Devon to become a full-time member of the Centre.

Author and activist Aph Ko explains her novel and insightful ideas on race and animality to foster multidimensional liberation for all human races and animal species, based on her book Racism as Zoological Witchcraft: A Guide to Getting Out (Lantern Press: 2019) (Jordan Peele's movie Get Out is an inspiration here). In this 26-minute "In Tune to Nature" Podcast, host Carrie Freeman asks Aph to explain concepts from the book, such as how racism is a form of "zoological witchcraft" where "white supremacy uses both minoritized bodies and animality to communicate and reinscribe a mythical fantasy of racial superiority" (p. 99). She also explains the value of concurrently fighting racism and animal oppression (as a form of animal oppression) through an "afro-zoological resistance" or "multidimensional liberation" movement. Her advice is pertinent to anyone interested in racial justice, animal liberation, or vegan advocacy.Also check out Aph Ko's website BlackVegansRock.com In Tune to Nature is a 30-minute show airing each Wednesday from 6:30-7pm EST (hosted by Carrie Freeman, Sonia Swartz, or Melody Paris) on 89.3 FM-Atlanta and on wrfg.org.

Scientists discover many new creatures each year, and they’re not all tiny bugs and sea worms, there are big lizards, monkeys and lemurs and sloths, dolphins and rays and species of deer and in 2010 a new species of clouded leopard. All of them existed in our world and we mostly had no idea they were there. Some of these creatures appear to us by chance, they show themselves when we were looking for something different, in places we maybe didn’t expect. Others are searched for more intentionally. Perhaps there existed stories or tales of them from remote villages, or we found traces of evidence from a creature we didn’t yet recognise. Many of them take years and years of painstaking research to finally discover, teams of specialists go into the wild season after season, chasing down leads and reviewing hundreds of thousands of images from trail cameras in the hope of catching a glimpse of the illusive beasts. Not too long ago, a team of specialists knew that Canadian black bears had been coming south, over the border and making homes around the forests of the Pacific North West. Hair and scat was found, very occasionally, but it took the team of highly trained trackers and experts more than five years to actually see them for the first time. Zoological journalist and author Richard Freeman has dedicated his entire life to tracking down some of the more illusive creatures that may, or may not, share the planet with us. As a cryptozoologist, Richard has penned 8 books and holds the role of Zoological Director for the Centre for Fortean Zoology. He has expeditioned to some of the most remote places on the planet in search of cryptids like the Yeti, the Orang Pendek and the Almasty, and made huge strides in his pursuit of the once-presumed extinct Thylacine. Richard joins me tonight to discuss his work and to tell us why we may not have to try that hard to Peer Beyond The Veil. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/peerbeyondtheveil/support

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.07.17.208322v1?rss=1 Authors: Gupta, A., Vashisth, S., Sharma, M., singh, r., Hore, U., Lee, H., Pandey, P. Abstract: Zoological Parks serve a salient purpose of entertaining many visitors by housing various exclusive animal species. Big cats like tigers and leopard are among the most visited species in zoos globally. We investigated the behavioral response of the zoo-housed big cats to visitor densities and noise. We also aimed to understand the relationship between stereotypy, animal history, feeding schedules, and enclose design. The behavior of eight big cats housed in the National Zoological Park, New Delhi, was monitored using the focal sampling technique during the May and June 2019 to construct the ethograms. We also recorded the visitor density, ambient noise, for the same duration. Both species were found devoting a significant amount (>50%) of time in displaying inactive behaviors. Tigers and leopards performed stereotypic behaviors for 22% and 28% of their time, respectively. Pearson chi-square analysis revealed a significant variation of stereotypy in association with biological (age, sex, and rearing history) and captive (enclosure design) variables. Big cats stereotypic behaviors were found significantly influenced by the high visitor density. However, ambient noise did not impact the stereotypy of both the felid species. Visitors form an integral part of zoos, and their detrimental impact diminishes the well-being of captive animals. This study revealed that tigers and leopards in NZP display a high proportion of inactive and stereotypic behaviors. Thus, we suggest zoo authorities adopt more enclosure enrichment initiatives.

It was something of an indifferent week in Corrie where we focussed on stories that either aren’t all that interesting, or ones that we thought had been dealt with, or startling developments emerged in others that snipped through our suspension of disbelief. Robert manages to get yet more lies out of this Young Offenders tall tale but looks like he’s met his match in Irish Jed, plus Craig’s fortunate positioning in the street at vital times makes it look like Robert’s web may be about to collapse. A reasonably tanned David manages to figure out why Mad Max is behaving in the way he is and gives Shona a way into the kid's good books, but is it going to be enough? Emma shows far more interest in getting to know Amy, leaving Steve to fall asleep at the switch and have filthy dreams about Fat Brenda. Gary is getting fed up with Derek’s unprofessionalism and Ryan’s taking the piss, but a moment of exaggerated frustration with Derek in the Rover’s toilets might just give Adam cause for concern. Hope and Fizz are back in town, earlier than expected, and Tyrone gets the feeling that he may have overlooked something; did he switch the iron off, did he remember to lock the front door, did he fill in that important form to make sure Hope gets an education? Evelyn has an interesting idea that may get Ty out of this hole or wind up with him further deeper into it.

In this installment, titled "Metaphysical Zoological Hallucinations," (following some spoiler-y corrections on "Claws"), I highlight a half-dozen episodes from Aaron Sorkin's "The West Wing," archived from a fan-voted top ten episode Labor Day 2004 marathon on Bravo as part of the series' syndication on that channel. In Cross Connections, I trace "Studio Six Feet Under" connections from a collection of movies that aired on FXM Retro and which I pull up for comment under "VideoFuzzy at the Movies," including "Journey to the Center of the Earth," "Wizards," "The Man Who Wouldn't Die," "23 Paces to Baker Street," "Quintet," "11 Harrowhouse," "Mister 880," "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?" and "The Third Secret," highlighting Ed Begley Jr's multiple appearances throughout my collection, as well as appearances by Laurie Metcalf, Jason Manzoukis, Mark A.

In my Classic VHS-to-DVD Collection, I talk about a few "West Wing" episodes I tracked down in my back catalog in preparing for my feature commentary, archive recordings of speeches by Joe Biden and Barack Obama at the 2008 Democratic National Convention, including an unfortunate camera mishap involving a streamer cannon. Also, comments on Monty Python's Flying Circus royal episode, Monk prop issues and Simpsons meme synchronicity. In my direct-to-DVD Current Collection, comments on the series finale of "Legion," as well as "Preacher," "Pose," "Pearson," "Archer 1999" and I listed out the menagerie they pulled in for a fun little [adult swim] bumper headed "Metaphysical Zoological Hallucinations," including the Motaur by Progressive, Gritty the hockey mascot, a cutie cthulie (an octupus) and a platypus, which they caption a "weirdo duck."

The first Coelacanth was discovered by a woman in South Africa in 1938. The find, by the young museum curator, was the fish equivalent of discovering a T- Rex on the Serengeti, it took the Zoological world by storm. Presenter Adam Hart tells the story of this discovery, and the steps taken by Coelacanth biologists in the decades since to find more fish, in other populations, and record them for science. Adam hears personal accounts from a deep diver who swam with Coelacanths, Eve Marshall, conservationist Dr Mark Erdman, and geneticist Professor Axel Meyer.

But they have revolutionized our lives and are here to stay. What is most important is how we use them and how we reuse them – closing the loop rather than dumping them in the oceans to kill marine life,” says noted conservationist and scientist Dr. Nicholas Hill from the Zoological Society of London. He points out that “Unlikely partnerships can sometimes be the most inspiring and innovative.” Apparently, he was thinking about the Zoo’s partnership with Interface TILE -0.8%, Inc., which claims to be the world’s largest modular carpet manufacturer. Together, they are working in partnership called “Net-Works” to eliminate the global marine hazard of discarded fishing nets. “ The nets, which would otherwise last for 600 years and are the world’s largest and cleanest source of post-consumer nylon, are regenerated into nylon yarn Interface uses to produce carpet tiles. The program is established in poor coastal Philippines villages where marine life and reefs are endangered and has helped 4,500 villagers earn supplemental income equal to 84,000 additional meals. The United Nations has conservatively estimated that 640,000 tons of fishing gear are left in the oceans each year,” a spokesperson explained.
