"It makes me grateful for Joan all the time," Zemer said this week, less than 48 hours after Wozer, 62, and her four golden retrievers died in a fire at her home on Spaulding Drive in Clarence. "I sent her notes to remind her that the joy she provides others is immense." Zemer, a Hamburg entrepreneur; Wozer's close friend Cathy Lapoint; and Krissi Miranda of the SPCA Serving Erie County were three of dozens who spoke with The Buffalo News or on social media about Wozer's passion for golden retrievers, which complemented her career as a nurse at John R.

dart frog :: Article Creator Poison Dart Frogs: Personality Determines Reproductive Strategies, Research Suggests Influence of personality traits on components of reproductive success. This chart shows the marginal effect of interaction terms from the GLMs investigating (a) the link between exploration, boldness, and mating success in females, (b) the link between aggressiveness, exploration, and mating success in males, and (c) the link between aggressiveness, exploration, boldness, and number of adult offspring in males.

mexican amphibian :: Article Creator 'We Have To Work Urgently': Mexican Ecologists Start Campaign To Save Axolotl Ecologists from Mexico's National Autonomous University on Friday relaunched a fundraising campaign to bolster conservation efforts for axolotls, a native, endangered fish-like type of salamander. The campaign, called Adoptaxolotl, asks people for as little as 600 pesos (about $35) to virtually adopt one of the tiny "water monsters". Virtual adoption comes with live updates on your axolotl's health. For less money, donors can buy a virtual dinner for one of the creatures, which are relatively popular pets in the US. In Mexican axolotls' main habitat, the population density has plummeted 99.5% in under two decades, according to scientists behind the fundraiser.

pink salmon :: Article Creator Pink Salmon Are Thriving In Warmer Waters, Affecting Other Species, Scientists Say Pink salmon returning to Prince William Sound, Alaska, hatcheries contributed to record-setting abundances in recent years and to impacts on other marine species. (Photo by Preston and Teresa Cole) A new scientific paper published this fall shows that the pink salmon population is booming in the North Pacific Ocean — and global warming is helping it happen. The new evidence suggests that pinks are not just outcompeting other salmon species but they're affecting the whole ecosystem — from the microscopic to large marine whales. "Pink salmon are one of the winners in terms of climate change," said Greg Ruggerone, a salmon researcher and lead author of the new 40-page paper published Sept. 21 in the scientific journal, Marine Ecology Progress Series. But for every winner, there is a loser — or in this case, several. The new...
