House mice displaced from established home ranges in grassland on Great Gull Island, New York, exhibited homing behaviour. This behaviour was associated with large home range, wandering before home range establishment, and forays outside the range. W

Relative population densities of five species of arboreal marsupial were examined in eleven patches of rainforest (2–74 ha) created by extensive clearing. Species diversity increased with area of patches (p = 0·01), and all species were present in

Local opinions as to dugong abundance, population trends, behaviour and ecology, along with the distribution and intensity of human utilisation, were assessed throughout the range of the species in Australia by means of two questionnaires. Dugong pop

Dugongs were traditionally hunted by netting or spearing from a raft in the Wellesley Islands (Queensland). They are now hunted using a harpoon with a detachable head (wap) from a dinghy with an outboard motor. Despite the increased efficiency in hun

Using atomic absorption spectroscopy, exceptionally high concentrations of iron (778 to 82,363 μg g+1 dry weight) and zinc (219 to 4,183 μg g+1 dry weight) were detected in the livers of Dugong dugon (Muller) from north Queensland compared with rep

The extensive damage to littoral and sub-littoral biotic communities caused by cyclone ‘Althea’, which crossed the tropical coast of Queensland on 24 December, 1971 , are described. The effects of high wind speeds (mean 129·7 km/h), turbulent se

The Dugong population in the vicinity of Townsville, Queensland, has been severely decimated as a result of a government-sponsored shark-netting programme begun in 1964. Only 7 out of a total of 158 Dugongs netted from 1964 to 1971 survived drowning

Dugongs can be efficiently censused and observed from a light aircraft. The existence of herds of substantial size in Australian waters has been confirmed, and a programme of aerial surveys designed to evaluate the status of the species on the Austra
