Extractions: Introduction This web page was designed and researched by the students of Rollo Bay Consolidated. The pictures on each of the pages were hand drawn by the student. The purpose of these web pages is to make the students more aware of the Information Highway and its potential. The web page consist of animals living on P.E.I. Top Of Page Conclusion With the completion of this project, the students have realized that there are many animals on P.E.I. that are crucial to the things that we take for granted. By having this online it will enable other students to have access to these pages and in return they will have a resource on animals on P.E.I.

Outdoors Wildlife: Subnivia habitat cool place Sunday, February 23, 2003 By Scott Shalaway Last week's "storm of the century" left behind a habitat I seldom encounter. Though common at northern latitudes and higher elevations, the world beneath the snow, the subnivian environment, is a living system. It's an unseen world that can be detected by careful observation. Though some references define subnivia as just the inch or two above the ground and beneath the snow, I use a broader definition that includes everything under the snow. Send questions and comments to Dr. Scott Shalaway, R.D. 5, Cameron, WV 26033 or via e-mail to sshalaway@aol.com , and catch Scott on the radio Saturday afternoons from 2 to 4 p.m. on 1360 WPTT. Beneath the snow, a surprising diversity of scavenging insects, mites and spiders forage on decaying organic matter and dormant insects in larval and pupal stages. Seeds, bark and plants that remain winter green sustain voles and deer mice. Shrews and weasels sit atop the subnivian food chain.

Extractions: Hunting Home Page Hunting WEB HotLinks Big Game Big Game Harvest Statistics ... Personalize this site WEASELS O f the 11 members of the weasel family known in Colorado, only two actually are called weasels: the long-tailed weasel and the short-tailed weasel, or ermine. Both of these species have black-tipped tails, but they are readily distinguished from L ong-tailed weasels live statewide in Colorado in most habitats, perhaps favoring brushy areas at the edge of forests where their rodent prey is most abundant. Short-tailed weasels occur mostly in the mountains. In addition to mice, weasels eat shrews, chipmunks, small ground squirrels, nestling rabbits and ground-nesting birds. They are quite capable of subduing animals larger than they by wrapping their long body around the prey and killing it with a quick bite at the base of its skull. Although owls take a few weasels, no predator can afford to make a staple of another predator. R eproduction involves mating in summer, a long delay in implantation of embryos and gestation of about 30 days. Four to nine tiny young are born in April. Back to "Lions, Ferrets & Bears" Home Page

http://www.ngpc.state.ne.us/wildlife/ferret.html

Extractions: An endangered species Description Habitat The black-footed ferret (Mustela nigripes) has been considered the most endangered mammal in North America for many years. Although it was probably never abundant, historically the ferret occurred throughout the Great Plains in 12 states and two Canadian provinces, from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains east to Nebraska and from southern Canada south to Texas. Ferrets were occasionally listed in fur company records from the upper Missouri River basin in the early to mid-1800s. The ferret was held in special regard by Native Americans, who used its pelts on headdresses and in religious ceremonies. The range of the black-footed ferret coincides closely with that of three species of prairie dogs on which the ferret depends for food and habitat. As the plains were settled and large tracts of prairie were plowed for farmland, prairie dog and ferret habitat was destroyed. Poisoning campaigns eliminated vast acreages of prairie dogs that were competing with livestock for forage. Prairie dogs occupied an estimated 700 million acres in the Great Plains in the late 1800s but occupy only about 1.5 million acres today. The black-footed ferrets decline probably followed that of the prairie dog. In the 1950s, ferrets were still thought to occur in low densities throughout most of their historic range. In the 1960s, the only known population of black-footed ferrets was a small colony in southwestern South Dakota. That colony was studied from its discovery in 1964 until the last member died in captivity in 1979.

Read over the background material to the class. Take the students on a winter snowshoe hike and discuss snow depths, yarding, trailing, food shortages and storage, weather factors, cover, day length, and frozen water. Inside: Divide the class into 5 groups; give each group a different sheet from the Winter Stress handouts. Each group will be assigned one species to study as a group (beaver, mule deer, coyote, long tail weasel, and moose). Give each group the pelt from their wildlife species. Have them work through the questions and write their answers on their worksheets. Provide wildlife guide books and encyclopedias for the students to research their species. The questions ask them to:

Extractions: Here we have a picture of a Shetland pony mare and her foal. In days gone by these tiny horses did nearly all the agricultural work of the crofts - but today they are largely replaced by - and the Shetland pony is quite scarce on its native islands However - there are many to be found in the south - where it is highly esteemed as a children's riding pony. Lucky indeed is the small child who has one of these delightful and docile ponies as his first mount. 02 THE WELSH MOUNTAIN PONY The Welsh mountain pony is a delightful little animal and makes a very good child's mount. It was formerly much used in the pits - but mechanisation has largely done away with the need for ponies in the mines. Welsh ponies vary in colour bays - greys - chestnuts and blacks are all to be met with - and a pretty sight they are when seen on a green hillside or wandering over a gorsy common - the little mares followed by their foals - with a proud stallion leading the party. 03 WILD WHITE OR PARK CATTLE Wild white or park cattle are kept in several places in Great Britain. They are fine white cattle with black or red points and date back to the Middle Ages - when the great noblemen enclosed areas of land for sporting purposes. In these parks were deer - wild boars and wild bulls. Whether the cattle were really wild or gone wild is not certain They may have been the latter. Anyhow' the breed still survives - for example the Chillingham herd in the great park at Chillingham in Northumberland - and the Chartlev Cattle at Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire.

Extractions: The weasel family in the Columbia Basin includes badger, wolverine, mink and river otter, marten, striped skunk, fisher, and, of course, weasel (long-tailed weasel and ermine) . Of these, only the badger has endangered (Red-listed) status. Fisher, the anguinae subspecies of ermine and wolverine are "vulnerable" (Blue-listed) in British Columbia. Members of the weasel family are carnivores (both meanings: they in the order, Carnivora, and they are all meat-eaters), hunting a variety of prey appropriate to their size and habitat. For example, marten tend to specialize on squirrels and voles, fisher are porcupine specialists, wolverine will eat anything up to the size of a bull caribou, mink prey on fish and aquatic amphibians and mammals (especially muskrats, where present), and otter eat almost exclusively fish. Mustelids of one species or another are nearly ubiquitous in Columbia Basin. Some mustelids also eat a considerable amount of vegetable matter; for example, the marten diet includes berries.

http://public.srce.hr/XIIIgim/pictures/pika/pikas.htm

Extractions: The northern or collared pika (Ochotona collaris) is closely related to hares and rabbits. Also called the "rock rabbit," "coney," and "little chief hare," the pikas name is derived from the Siberian word for this animal, puka . All but 2 of the 19 existing species of pika occur in Asia, where they probably originated. Fossil remains indicate that the pika family is over 15 million years old and most likely reached North America by crossing the Bering land bridge. General description: Pikas have stocky bodies, short legs, and are almost tailless. A distinct grayish patch on the shoulder and neck forms the northern pikas "collar," appearing in definite contrast to the white fur on its chest and stomach. Pikas have fur-covered feet, but bare toe pads. Their sharp, curved claws help them climb from rock to rock with ease. Pikas are highly alert, possessing excellent hearing and vision. When fully grown, they weigh about 5 ounces (140 gms). Pikas form colonies in mountainous terrain, living in old rock slides, talus slopes, or around large boulders, usually with a meadow or patches of vegetation in the vicinity. They are normally found at high elevations, but isolated colonies near sea level have also been found. Small burrows at the edge of rock piles and the presence of small, dark, oval droppings indicate the existence of a pika colony. The presence of their "hay piles" will positively identify the colony.

Extractions: Wildlife The Teton Range dominates Grand Teton National Park, attracting the attention of all who pass through Jackson Hole. The geologic processes that resulted in mountain building and sculpting also have determined where plants grow in the park. Herbivores, plant-eating animals like moose, mule deer and elk, occur where their food source exists. Carnivores, meat eating animals like bears, coyotes and weasels, follow the herbivores they prey upon. Geologic events created the dramatic scenery of Jackson Hole and indirectly account for the distribution and abundance of wildlife and plants found here. Special Feature. . .
