Europe: European wildcat The World Conservation Union is responsible for determining the status of cat species in the wild. Categories such as Critically Endangered or Threatened are used to characterize populations. One category, Data Deficient, means that almost nothing is known about the species. Three species of cats are currently listed as Data Deficient - all are small cats. Jim conducts his own research, focusing on the Andean Mountain Cat and the guigna, and collaborates intensively with local scientists and volunteers who are leading work on other small cat species around the world. Collaboration with local scientists and volunteers has been a key to the success of these small cat studies. Colleagues work in remote areas, collecting valuable data that can be compiled into a larger database of information on these rare cats.

At the Texas Exotic Feline Foundation (TEFF) outside of Boyd in North Texas, one of the first things our guide told us was: "We exist here for the cats." The sanctuary is a retirement home for large cats that have been abandoned, neglected, or abused. Many of the animals are on the wildlife endangered or threatened list, and all of them are gorgeous creatures. There is a story in the eyes of every one of the 69 cats housed at the 28-acre facility less than an hour north of Fort Worth. "The cats come from every situation in the world, mostly bad," says Richard Gilbreth, director of the feline rescue facility that is considered the best of its kind in the U.S. "There are more tigers in Texas than people know what to do with," he says. "It's becoming an epidemic." In the wild the cats live about 10 years; in captivity the cats grow to several hundred pounds and live for about 20 years. Gilbreth says they have to turn away 100 to 150 cats a year. Most of the cats at TEFF were born and raised in the U.S. Ten years ago a lion or tiger cub sold for $8,000 to $15,000. "That eliminated a lot of people from the market," he says. Tempted by the prospects of selling two to four cubs a year, breeders jumped into the business. Soon prices dropped to $300 to $500 and the cats became an impulse purchase.

History of the LIOC-ESCF

Continued from History page 1 September 17, l979 saw the passage of the Department of the Interior's final rules on captive - bred wildlife. Gone was the suggestion provision for Captive Self-Sustaining Populations rules, and with it any allowable "trade" in pet wildlife. Ocelots and margays, which were so plentiful, were now in total government control and permits for interstate commerce were not being issued. The decade of the 80's demonstrated just how final these rules were. A stable nucleus of ocelot and margay founding stock were quietly dying off. The result has been a government imposed genetic bottleneck of these magnificent felines. By 1982, it was obvious times and attitudes were changing. So too were the demographics of the Long Island Ocelot Club. There were more other cats than ocelots among the membership. And that membership was no longer centered in Long Island, rather it had become international. It was no longer enough just to have a pet; we must also breed those we possessed and conserve those that remained in the wild. To this end, the Long Island Ocelot Club ceased to be. Keeping the initials LIOC (to honor our Founder and our roots) we added, Endangered Species Conservation Federation, Inc. and incorporated as a non-profit organization. As LIOC's founder felines grew old, members began sharing the medical history and final departure of their beloved companions. In 1985 Births were in abundance, Lil Smith had twin Margays and Jean Hatfield had 2 ocelots in May. In Sept John Perry had geoffroy babies, Jean Hamil had 3 bobcat kittens, the Marshall reported a litter of cougars and jaguars, and Dale and Shirley Jackson had 2 male oncillas. Sasha and Lefty Margays, belonging to Fred Boyajian accompanied Fred to 4 national LIOC conventions passed on in the fall of 1985.

APPENDIX A Cub Rearing Protocols Toward Less Dangerous Captive Felines
A call for private captive stewardship of large Felines as supplemental support toward species survival.
John Williamson - Tiger Touch, Inc.
In the U.S. there are approximately 150 zoos accredited by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association that are the front line of defense against the further erosion and loss of many endangered or threatened species of large felines. Their survival plan is almost brutally simple; keep the genetic carriers in isolated captivity until a species management program decides the need for additional specimens. While this is better than rapid species extinction, it offers little to the welfare of the animals, very limited genetic variability, and inadequate gene pool size. Government, having few clear guidelines, limited effectiveness, and often serious conflicts of interest with respect to conservation and species preservation in particular, has abdicated its power to literally hundreds of Non Government Organizations (NGO's) whose survival plans range from fencing off natural habitat, hiring small armies to protect the remaining wildlife, endless studies, to negotiations with governments to become signatories to various agreements purported to solve the pernicious problem of plain old poaching. The NGO's themselves range from highly rational to patently off-focus. One thing they have in common, however, is incessant pleading for money to support activities that are all but impossible to achieve or evaluate within our lifetime.

Wild Cats in Carolina

Fleet-footed caracals are able to chase down gazelles and knock birds from the air, but to African and Asian farmers, they are merely crop-destroying pests.
Laudable as that mission sounds, not every wildlife conservationist has embraced it. That's because the Carnivore Preservation Trust has upended scientific orthodoxy, defiantly dissenting from the principles and methods used by most zoos to raise and breed animals in captivity. While mainstream animal conservationists adhere to the doctrine of having mothers raise their own litters, the trust follows a policy of raising young carnivores by human hand. And while most scientists believe in keeping subspecies lines as pure as possible, the trust intentionally disregards those lines, creating "generic" animals not found in nature. The Carnivore Preservation Trust grew out of the personal passion of the late Michael Bleyman, a gray-bearded geneticist who left his University of North Carolina faculty job in 1975 to follow his real love: studying tigers, jaguars, and other large felines whose survival was threatened in the wild. His interests were only partly academic. "Mike was a scientist who had a strong interest in wildcats, and he wanted to save those cats," recalls Wildt. "But he also liked the excitement of having a 500-pound Siberian tiger in his backyard."

The high-tech, high-controversy attempt to save endangered animals with clones and surrogate moms

Photograph Courtesy of Audubon Nature Institute Actually, Jazz is the first of his kind, an endangered African wildcat born almost two years ago from a frozen embryo that was implanted in an ordinary house cat. Acting as midwife was Betsy Dresser, director of the Audubon Center for Research of Endangered Species, on the bayou near New Orleans. Dresser is a leading advocate of efforts to protect rare animals by cloning and other advanced reproductive techniques. Her controversial aim is to provide a last-ditch, high-tech redoubt for species that might otherwise vanish when their habitats do. "We're a safety net for these species," explains Dresser. "I feel like I'm in the emergency room of the conservation movement." The principle of interspecies surrogates was first demonstrated in the 1970s, when an Asian mouflon lamb was born to a domestic wool sheep. In the early 1980s, Dresser and her colleagues at the Cincinnati Zoo coaxed a rare African antelope called a bongo from a doe of a more plentiful species, the eland. A few years later, the Cincinnati team shepherded the birth of an endangered Asian ox called a gaur by a Holstein cow. In 1994, Dresser announced the live birth of a threatened Indian desert cat, delivered by a house cat that had been implanted with a fresh embryo. Jazz represents the next stage in Dresser's vision: living, purring proof that frozen embryos can remain viable after thawing and can develop normally in the womb of another species.

On The Prowl
vincent lizee The 1996 World Conservation Congress concluded a quarter of all mammal species are endangered . Some of these species are of the biological family of felids, or cats. Some are already extinct like the Barbary lion, the Caspian tiger and the Arizona jaguar. Some seem certain to go extinct within the next decade since the populations are too small for healthy breeding like the Arabian leopard and the Chinese tiger. The future for some 72 per cent of all cat species is uncertain from years of habitat destruction and hunting that have decimated wild cat populations. This grim scenario has compelled some conservationists and other concerned individuals to form an organization specifically dedicated to preserving felines called the International Society for Endangered Cats (ISEC). "I think just a concern for small cats" explains Tania James, B.C. Division director, siting the reason for ISEC's formation. "There are so many other organizations. Everybody has heard of a tiger, everybody has heard of a lion, everybody has heard of a cheetah but very few people have heard of a black footed cat or a sand cat or a Geoffrey's cat or a Pallas' cat." Concern for cat conservation follows from the concern to preserve the biosphere. Cats, big and small, prey on a variety of herbivores that if left unchecked would ravage the plant life that they depend on. Wild rodents would undergo a population explosion pushing them into human settlements to become farming pests and disease carriers. Conservation is important in protecting felines as natural wonders and as icons of strength and prowess as exemplified by their use in emblems, advertising, stories, and novelties made in their image. All of these uses would be lost forever if many feline species become extinct.

Among Amazonian societies, the jaguar, with its shining, reflective eyes,
were thought to connect to the spirit world. Today, Jaguars remain an important symbol in many religious and artistic
expressions in the New World. However, there is a growing conflict between
those that would honor the jaguar for its spiritual, cultural and ecological
significance with those that continue to cause its decline. The Jaguar is the largest cat in the Western Hemisphere and the third

October/November 2002 THE GRIZZLY Unlike the United States, which safeguards species under the federal Endangered Species Act Species At Risk Act As their name suggests, woodland caribou live in mountain forests, where they dine on arboreal lichens, grass, forbs and huckleberry bushes. In early winter, the animals move to lower elevations to avoid deep snow. As the season progresses, however, they climb back up to ridges above 6,000 feet, where their oversized hooves trod the now-hardened, 6-to-12-foot-high snowpack to reach otherwise inaccessible lichens far up in the trees. Except for mountain goats, woodland caribou are the only large animals that tough out winter in the high country. Authorities in British Columbia seem particularly uncertain about how to handle the grizzly hunting question. In February 2001, officials in the province issued what was to be a three-year moratorium on killing the bears. But with the ink barely dry on that edict, a newly elected provincial government lifted the ban that July.
