Abstract Flagship species are widely used in conservation but this single approach has attracted criticism. One response is the “flagship fleet,” which uses several flagship one marketing campaign. However, theory suggests multibrand campaigns can be counter‐productive. Here, we develop an evaluation strategy for flagships, and use it to: measure effectiveness of existing bird species; detect whether additional needed; and, if appropriate, identify should added to create a fleet. We show...
Abstract Aim The global decline of megafauna is believed to have had significant and widespread ecological impacts. One such extinction likely important consequence the 18th century Steller’s sea cow ( Hydrodamalis gigas ); however, little has been written about how loss this megaherbivore may impacted coastal ecosystem dynamics. Drawing on historical evidence, biology, kelp forest ecology, ecology extant sirenians, we propose several discrete hypotheses effects cows dynamics North Pacific....

There are very few records of small cetaceans that survive entanglements in fishing gear. This affirmative is supported by the reduced dolphins released alive from entanglements, and also low frequency healed wounds caused interaction with nets found stranded carcasses. In this paper, stranding a tucuxi dolphin, Sotalia fluviatilis, Ceara State, Brazil showing evidence it survived previous entanglement reported for first time. On november, 2000 young male dolphin 1300 mm long Pecem Beach, 65...
The false killer whale (Pseudorca crassidens) is a delphinid found in tropical and warm temperate waters around the globe. Its distribution based sightings and, mainly, mass strandings. In Brazil, species was recorded through strandings incidental catches by fishing nets Southern (Rio Grande do Sul Santa Catarina States), Southastern de Janeiro Espirito Santo States) Northeastern (Paraiba State) regions. This paper extends geographical range of this following stranding live specimen Guajiru...
