Transvaginal Mesh for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Shouldn't Be Used, Group Warns
By: Staff Writers
The consumer watchdog group, Public Citizen, has placed transvaginal mesh products on its "Do Not Use" list, urging women to seek alternative treatments for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
While Public Citizen's "Best Pills, Worst Pills" publication does not typically address medical devices, the group indicated last week that an exception was made because of the serious risk of complications from transvaginal placement of surgical mesh, which has been linked to a risk of eroding through the vaginal tissue, causing pain, infection, bleeding and urinary problems. There is also a risk of organ perforation during the surgical procedure to install a mesh.
Also commonly referred to as a bladder sling, transvaginal mesh was used in more than 75,000 procedures to repair pelvic organ prolapse last year. In recent years, a growing number of doctors have been recommending the surgical mesh products, despite no evidence to suggest it provides any advantages over other available methods of treating pelvic organ prolapse.
The Public Citizen designation came after the FDA issued a press release last week, indicating that side effects of transvaginal mesh for pelvic organ prolapse may outweigh any health benefits. The FDA indicated that between 2008 and 2010, more than 1,500 reports of problems with pelvic organ prolapse transvaginal mesh were received by the agency, representing a five fold increase from the number of adverse event reports received between 2005 and 2007.
Complications from transvaginal mesh have been associated with products made by a number of different manufacturers, including C.R. Bard, American Medical Systems (AMS), Boston Scientific, Johnson & Johnson and others.
The FDA first issued a warning about transvaginal mesh problems in October 2008, indicating that hundreds of people had reported experiencing problems with products made by at least nine different manufacturers. In addition, a study published earlier this year found a high risk of problems with all transvaginal mesh implants.
Many women who have experienced painful and debilitating injuries, are now considering transvaginal mesh lawsuits against the manufacturers for failing to adequately research their products or warn about the risk complications.
Last year, Johnson & Johnson reportedly settled a number of lawsuits over Mentor ObTape vaginal mesh, which had been linked to a complication rate as high as 17% to 18%. The Mentor ObTape bladder sling was removed from the market in 2006, only three years after it was introduced.
Over the past year, a growing number of Bard Avaulta mesh lawsuits have also been filed by women who have experienced problems. All of the complaints involve similar allegations that C.R. Bard's Avaulta Anterior and Posterior BioSynthetic Support System, which was introduced in 2007, was negligently designed and that the company failed to warn patients of possible complications that can result in severe pain and disfigurement.
Other suits over transvaginal mesh products have been filed by women who received the Ethicon Gynecare Gynemesh, Prolene Mesh, Prolift and TVT sling products, as well as the AMS Sparc, Elevate, Apogee, Perigee and Monarc sling systems.

I'm sure glad I check things out whether the doctor likes it or not. My CANADIAN doctor says he doesn't do experimental surgery (Elevest Procedure and if I want that to go to the US) well I need a Rectocele repaired and also wanted a uterine prolapse repaired, he doesn't do that he says he only does hysterectomies. Well Dr. get your head out of your ass and go back to school because I bet you use [Show More]I'm sure glad I check things out whether the doctor likes it or not.

Youth Engagement in Project-Based Learning
ALL children and youth are active people who want to be actively involved in learning, teaching and leadership throughout their communities. Responsible adults acknowledge that its not up to young people to become involved; in our adult-driven society, it is adults' responsibility to engage youth. Project-based learning can give young people meaningful opportunities to move beyond negative participation and become meaningfully involved.
Ways Youth Engagement in Project-Based Learning Happens
Youth-Led Media — Assuming control when adults act out of control, young people can use media to create their own messages, share youth voice and build community belonging through youth-led media. Whether they use the Internet, social media, video, print media, or otherwise, youth-led media can change the world by positively empowering children and youth to create the messages and share the stories that matter to them.
Youth as Facilitators — Facilitating project-based learning can allow learners to become teachers and leaders, too. Centering on activities that matter to them, youth facilitators might teach their peers, younger learners and adults, too, in a variety of settings, including schools, nonprofits, community centers and other places.
Service Learning — Centering their projects on changing the world in positive, powerful ways and serving other peoples' agendas can allow students to understand interdependence and community in powerful ways. Service learning connects real service with classroom learning goals, completing the promise of project-based learning in a different way.
Needs for Youth Engagement in Project-Based Learning
Education — Discovering what project-based learning is empowers many young people in new and powerful ways. Learning how to implement this strategy is powerful too. But when children and youth discover the assumptions behind project-based learning, the realities of facilitating project-based learning, and what it takes to assess and share project-based learning with the world they soar even higher.
Youth/Adult Partnerships — Working together across generations towards creating, completing and fulfilling the promise of project-based learning can empower young people in new ways. Youth/adult partnerships foster youth equity and support mainstreaming in powerful, meaningful ways.
Technology — Using the power of the internet, social media, gaming, texting and other technology can allow young people to change the world through project-based learning. Embracing their everyday technology as a learning device can bring them through indifference and inability towards empowerment and sustainable youth engagement.

New South Cebada Conservation Post
NEW SOUTH CEBADA CONSERVATION POST FOR THE CHIQUIBUL NATIONAL PARK
June 15, 2018 — (Belmopan, BZE) Yesterday, June 14, 2018, the Protected Areas Conservation Trust (PACT) along with the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Forestry, the Environment, Sustainable Development and Immigration (MAFFESDI), the Ministry of National Security, and the Friends for Conservation and Development (FCD) inaugurated a new Conservation Post in the South Cebada area of the Chiquibul National Park.
Government, NGO and Financing Partners at the Inauguration of the Cebada CP, June 14, 2018
On hand for the inauguration was a delegation of Ministers, Chief Executive Officers, and Heads of Department led by Hon. Dr. Omar Figueroa, Minister of Environment and Hon. John Saldivar, Minister of National Security. The South Cebada Conservation Post was financed through the Chiquibul Forest Investment Initiative (CFII) at a cost of BZ$115,000. The CFII was launched in 2016 and represents the single largest investment in the protection and conservation of Belize's biodiversity.
The $2.28 Million being invested by PACT and the Environmental Management Fund is aimed at addressing key threats from illegal land use practices in the Chiquibul Forest by strengthening multi-institutional capacity. The CFII is being implemented by a consortium of partners, namely the FCD, Ya'axché Conservation Trust, the Belize Forest Department, and the Belize Defence Force. The CFII investment focus spans the Chiquibul National Park, Chiquibul Forest Reserve, Vaca Forest Reserve, Columbia River Forest Reserve, Bladen Nature Reserve, and Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve.
The Conservation Post at South Cebada is 20' x 33' in size and was designed to accommodate an enforcement team of 12. Its main features include sleeping quarters, outdoor kitchen, hygiene facilities, a water catchment system, a photovoltaic solar power system and a 25' lookout tower. This is the second Conservation Post financed through the CFII with the Caballo CP built and inaugurated just last year. Hon. Dr. Omar Figueroa, during his address noted that "with the two conservation posts financed through the CFII the number of CPs in the Chiquibul now stands at seven (7).
Cebada Conservation Post, June 14, 2018
Coupled with the enforcement stations in the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve and Bladen Nature Reserve, these CPs will form a more robust network of permanent outposts in the Chiquibul Forest geared towards biodiversity protection and security". While the conservation posts and access roads have added much needed infrastructure in the Chiquibul, the CFII has contributed far more at improving the dialogue and coordination among consortium partners. The Initiative continues to contribute necessary human resources and capacity. From the consortium alone, a total of 34 trained enforcement personnel has been made available to support biodiversity conservation in the Chiquibul along with the BDF and Police. As a direct output, a 43% increase in ranger force translating to at least 50% increase in enforcement efficiency has been realized after just the first year of implementation. PACT would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all consortium members, enforcement teams, and partner agencies for their service to this country through their hard work and their pledge to defend the biodiversity and integrity of these protected areas. Also, we would like to express our gratitude to the FCD, Ministry of Environment, and the Ministry of National Security for key technical and logistical support towards the success of the inauguration ceremony and the wider initiative.
New Caballo Conservation Post for Chiquibul National Park
NEW CABALLO CONSERVATION POST FOR THE CHIQUIBUL NATIONAL PARK
July 31, 2017— (Belmopan, BZE) Through funding from the Protected Areas Conservation Trust (PACT) and the Environmental Management Fund (EMF), a new conservation post has been constructed in the Chiquibul National Park at a cost of BZ $115,000. Today, an official inauguration was held for the Caballo Conservation Post after which a tour of the new facilities was provided to guests. Present at the inauguration were Hon. Dr. Omar Figueroa, Minister of State in the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Forestry, the Environment and Sustainable Development (MAFFESD) as well as CEO in the Ministry and PACT Board Chair Dr. Percival Cho, and CEO in the Ministry of Defense Felix Enriquez among others. The new conservation post is part of the Chiquibul Forest Investment Initiative (CFII) that was launched in December 2016. The main objective of the initiative is to increase the management and enforcement presence within the Chiquibul, Columbia, and Vaca forest areas. PACT Board Chair Dr. Cho, in his welcome remarks, highlighted that "the Caballo conservation post is but one part of a larger goal aimed at encouraging multi-institutional strategy and strengthening the capacity for joint law enforcement and protection of the Chiquibul."
Over the years, the Western border of Belize along the Chiquibul and surrounding areas have been subject to illegal gold panning, logging, and poaching among other activities. PACT and the EMF's investment of BZ $2.28 million in the CFII aims to minimize the effects of illegal cross-border activities by increasing the management presence and enforcement within the Chiquibul. The CFII also brings together four key partners working in the most afflicted areas. Known as the CFII Consortium, beneficiaries include the Belize Defense Force (BDF), the Belize Forest Department, Friends for Conservation and Development (FCD) and Ya'axché Conservation Trust. Over the course of the Program, the CFII will facilitate the construction of two new conservation posts to allow for increased enforcement presence in the area, as well as the creation of access roads to alleviate the problem of limited accessibility for patrolling and monitoring. To further assist with patrolling and monitoring, under the CFII, a total of six new vehicles at a value of BZ $450,146.30 were handed over to the Consortium in May of this year.
PACT would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all consortium members, enforcement teams, and partner agencies for their service to this country through their hard work and their pledge to defend the biodiversity and integrity of these protected areas. Also, we would like to express our gratitude to the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Forestry, the Environment and Sustainable Development for key technical support and contribution towards the success of this initiative.
BZD $450K to Enforce Protection in the Chiquibul and Surrounding Forests Areas
BZD $450,146.30 IN SIX NEW VEHICLES FOR ENFORCEMENT IN THE CHIQUIBUL AND SURROUNDING FOREST AREAS
May 29, 2017— (Belmopan, BZ) Today, the Protected Areas Conservation Trust (PACT) hosted an official vehicle handover ceremony in Belmopan. Six new vehicles, valued at a total of $450,146.30 were handed over to the 4 beneficiaries of the Chiquibul Forest Investment Initiative (CFII). The CFII Consortium includes the Belize Defence Force (BDF), the Belize Forest Department, Ya'axché Conservation Trust and Friends for Conservation and Development (FCD). The BDF received three new vehicles while the remaining three organizations received one vehicle each.
The CFII was launched in December, 2016; at $2.28 million it represents the largest single investment that PACT has made to four agencies for a joint cause. The main objective of the Initiative is to increase the management presence and strengthen enforcement within the Chiquibul and the surrounding forest areas along our Western border. These areas consist mainly of the Columbia, Vaca and Chiquibul Forests. The effects of illegal activities along the Belize-Guatemala border represent a threat to both the biodiversity of these areas, as well as the safety. In his address today, Minister of State in the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Forestry, the Environment and Sustainable Development (MAFFESD), Hon. Dr. Omar Figueroa explained that the Chiquibul Forest Investment Initiative "is part of a larger $15.8 million investment by the Government of Belize, to stimulate the protection and conservation of our natural resources in the Chiquibul and surrounding areas. It is also in line with state measures to provide for a sustained level of protection along our borders."
Over the next three years, the CFII will also contribute to the establishment of two new conservation posts, and the installation of access roads. This will allow the organizations to increase their patrols throughout these key areas. Speaking on behalf of the Belize Defence Force, Commander David Jones expressed his commitment to continue working with each of the other beneficiaries. He noted that the vehicles are "a very welcome gift that will go a long way in regards to effectiveness and efficiency in patrolling our border and ensuring our territorial integrity and sovereignty in particular in the Chiquibul Forest Reserve."
PACT thanks the members of the CFII Consortium for the commitment and invaluable service they provide through the management and protection of these protected areas.

PACT Awards $2.2 Million to Four Grantees for Chiquibul Forest Investment Initiative


Placing is intended to be a critical and cultural exploration of place, writing place and place writing. Fundamentally, the project will result in a number of writings and publications addressing the intersection of cultural and urban life.
The objective of the project is to draw out emerging and changing ideas about urban environments with a particular emphasis on the role artists, designers, planners, architects and other urbanists can play as changemakers. It is grounded in a critical planning approach or praxis that is attentive to the need for innovation and change (restructuring, retrofitting, recreating, replacing, renewing, redirection etc). It is intended to "act in the service of what is seeking to emerge".
Theorist Jane Rendell engages the idea of 'site writing', interleaving the word with site and architecture. Placing considers practices of place. However, the project is not only about practices of place but also about practices of writing place. Place is both a noun and a verb. This prompts an inquiry of place as something we do; beyond placemaking.

Vast swathes of sea have been covered by thick oil that probably leaked after two ships collided on Saturday, endangering marine life in the surrounding waters and health of residents around.
CHENNAI: A day after two merchant ships collided near the Kamarajar port, thick oil spill was reported across the Ennore shoreline by residents. Both the ships that collided were oil tankers, one carrying LPG and the other carrying petroleum products.
The spilt oil was so thick that it remained stagnant and could not easily be scooped up in a mug. The spill has put marine and aquatic life in and around the area at grave threat.
According to fishermen, oil started to collect near the shore from Saturday evening. "It was very little last evening, but had spread wide by this morning," says R Robbin, who lives near the harbour.
"Hundreds of fish have died in the spill. We returned empty-handed as there was no catch today," say fishermen.
MA Bhaskarachar, chairman of Kamarajar Port and authorities at the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board suspect the oil spill to have been caused by the accident, but are yet to get a confirmation.
Environmentalists warn of the effects the oil spill could have on marine life and those who consume it. Carcasses of at least four turtles were found along the beaches after the oil spill. Crude oil, say experts, can be carcinogenic for fish, thereby affecting those who eat it.
On normal days, a strong smell of salt and fish hanging in the air tells that the sea is near. However, Sunday was not a normal day. The only smell wafting through the air was that of oil. So strong, that the fishermen and visitors in the vicinity were forced to cover their noses with a mask. A closer look showed four big turtles washed up on the shore, completely covered in the thick black oil.
This was no ordinary oil spill, the shoreline near the Bharatiyar Nagar beach in Ernavur did not just have just the usual film of oil, it was so thick it remained stagnant.
The Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board officials said the spill could be a result of the two ships that collided on Saturday but weren't sure. "There was a collision between an LPG tanker vessel, BW Maple, Isle of Man flagship, and vessel MT Kancheepuram, an oil and chemicals tanker, on the outskirts of Ennore at 4 am (on Saturday). So, this could be a result of that. As it is so thick, we are not able to understand what type of oil it is. We're conducting an investigation," said a senior official.
Fishermen in the area said that the oil started to collect near the shore from Saturday evening. "Last night we saw that there was only a little bit that had reached the shore but this morning when we got up it had spread," said R Robbin.
Rajesh K, one of the lorry drivers near the harbour said the oil was from a damaged ship. "The oil that ships carry as cargo is much thinner; this oil is the one that is used to run a ship," he said.
Many of the fishermen returned early from sea as they spotted hundreds of fish had died from the oil spill. "We've not been able to fish at all today because of the oil," said R Kishore, a fisherman pointing to the empty nets and boats that had a thick black coating at the bottom, a mark of the spill.
M A Bhaskarachar, chairman, Kamarajar Port also said that the oil spill might be a result of the collision but it was difficult to tell because no oil was found near the ships on Saturday. "We are still investigating, we have so many ships coming in everyday so we can't say which ship it could be from. The Coast Guard will take steps to clean it for now but we have been closely observing the situation and have contained the spill with a floating boom," he explained.
Late Sunday evening, the Coast Guard arrived to clear up the oil and TNPCB officials claimed that there was no chance of the oil spreading any further. But the damage could last decades, say marine biologists and coastal research experts.
Pooja Kumar, co-ordinator, Coastal Research Centre said that thick oil usually does mean that it would be crude oil and while oil itself is harmful, crude oil is bound to suffocate marine life. "Ridley turtles are also nesting now, so they are going to be affected. It will also result in a lot of fish kill and oil stains too. Since it is an estuary, the tide reached inland," she said. "Even though light oil is dangerous, there is still a chance of it dissolving or getting evaporated because it is thin. But crude oil is too thick to dissolve; it is also carcinogenic. Because of the slick, light will not be able to penetrate inside, the dissolved oxygen in the water will decrease and it usually takes decades to fully go away," said Aswathi Sarath, research fellow, marine microbiology, Pondicherry University.
Besides fish and turtles, Sarath said even birds will be affected. "The oil will get stuck to the feathers; mammals that need oxygen will not be able to come to the surface because of the thickness of the oil; and planktons will die. And if the oil reaches the backwaters then the mangroves would be polluted," she explained.

Exploring web development with a frozen compass: My ManagedProperty is null!
I've actually been told by a developer or two that I shouldn't use Managed Properties because "they don't work right."
What would the output be from the above code when the object is instantiated, if the value of userModel.username is "Magnus the Red"?
A) "UserID is: Magnus the Red"
D) "Ahriman had better watch out..."
The correct answer is C. This is why I'm told that ManagedProperty doesn't work right.
The truth is that ManagedProperty works just fine, if you understand the order in which things are happening. The problem here is that JSF used the setUserID() method to inject the value of userModel.username into the object. Well, that can't happen until the object has been instantiated, right? Well if the reference to the ManagedProperty is taking place in the constructor, how can it already have the value of the ManagedProperty in it if the object isn't even completely instantiated yet?
The solution here is to NOT put references to a ManagedProperty in your constructor. Instead, use the @PostConstruct annotation with an initialize() method to run your code AFTER the value has been injected into the newly created bean.
Now the output will be A).
if username was not an string and an object instead, this example would work?
Yes. Remember, a String in Java is an Object anyway.


Apple is one company that presumably cares significantly about the environment, even if some of the steps needed affect its bottom line adversely. The company wants to run all of its operations on renewable energy and it has now added 15 more suppliers to the list of supply chain partners committed to using clean energy.
With suppliers such as Foxconn and TSMC on board, Apple now has 44 suppliers in the program. The company also expects to beat its goal of using 4 gigawatts of clean energy in it's supply chain by next year as it hopes to bring 5 gigawatts in that time frame. It is worth mentioning that the announcement is not a conformation that the new suppliers have already met this goal. Apple's Vice President of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives Lisa Jackson, said that she believes that the new partners are fully committed to achieving the goal but didn't say if any supplier will be dropped as a result of failure to comply.
Jackson further said that the Cupertino giant has the same environmental standards for its suppliers as it does for itself and that the company is committed to promoting a transition towards clean energy globally. Last year, Apple revealed that all its facilities as well as retail locations run on renewable energy only. While this certainly sounds impressive, it's worth mentioning that 74 percent of Apple's carbon footprint comes from its manufacturing partners. Although the company now has 44 suppliers on board, it has more than 700 still left to go, meaning that a long road is ahead of the technology giant.
In addition to shifting to renewable energy, Apple also promotes recycling and waster minimization. The company had previously said that it deems environmental change a potential threat to its business and is taking further steps in ensuring that preservation is taken seriously. Other companies like Google has also committed to switching to renewable energy completely, ensuring that minimum impact is exerted on the environment.
It still remains to be seen if Apple's suppliers share the same ambitions as the iPhone maker, and with that being said, we'll have more updates for you in the future.

Uber Technologies is said to have filed for an initial public offering, joining its competitor Lyft in a race to the investor market.
Dubbed "Project Liberty," Uber filed paperwork confidentially this week for its IPO and may beat Lyft to be the first on the market in 2019, reported The Wall Street Journal.
Uber's IPO sets the stage as one of the biggest technology listings ever for Silicon Valley. Recent private financing, reported by Venture Beat , has the company worth $76 billion and if gone public, it could be worth $120 billion in IPO. This would surpass popular companies, including Airbnb and Slack.
The market, however, may be risky for Uber due to its controversies last year over workplace and legal conditions. Uber co-founder and former CEO Travis Kalanick resigned last year. The company then hired Dara Khosrowshahi as the new chief executive and has seen positive progress since.
The ride-hailing business rose to popularity less than a decade ago and seemed highly unprofitable to stock holders. And may still be—Uber's third-quarter loss was $1.07 billion amid a sales gain of 38% to $2.95 billion, reported The Wall Street Journal.
However, Uber on its own raised about $18 billion from various investors. The company has not yet chosen the lead banks to put it on the market, although Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs are projected.

IT Director - Westmorland
IT Director Jobs
The implementation of a comprehensive IT system throughout a large company is a massive undertaking that requires a highly skilled and specialized team behind it. Programmers, developers, hardware technicians, project managers, help desk workers and the managers overseeing the individual elements of the project all add up to a significant portion of a company's workforce, and they need to be led strategically by someone on the board whose responsibility is solely with them. That person is the IT director.
The IT director creates an IT strategy from the board's overarching strategy and projections, and works closely with his or her immediate IT managers to ensure the project is delivered. As a board member, he or she may have some access to the company purse to ensure complex IT projects are adequately resourced, but keeping a lid on costs is always a key responsibility; IT budgets spiralling out of control is a common story in business and the public sector.
The skills required
At board level, an IT director could have little experience in dealing with information technology, but will build a team of managers to oversee the work. However, if you have experience of managing IT projects to a senior level, you could be the ideal candidate for many companies whose boards rely on the IT director's expertise and counsel to inform them of the opportunities and limitations of the technology.
Primarily, your job as IT director is to oversee the delivery of either single IT projects or an ongoing series of projects as designated by the board, and your success will be judged on your performance in delivering projects on time and on budget. This can be a highly responsible job, often at the cutting edge of technology, and managing budgets can be difficult. However, with successful implementation, the rewards can be great.

Since no storage of hot water is necessary, there's no giant, 50-gallon tank of water taking up space in your home. In fact, some units can even be installed outside of your house.
Propane hot water heaters also have a longer life expectancy when compared to electric models, and they are less prone to overall corrosion, meaning it is expected to last about 20 years, which is around two to three times longer than a traditional hot water heater.
Still not convinced? Well, you may want to consider the environmental benefits of propane hot water heaters. By not running continuously, fewer greenhouse gases are emitted from your unit, making the majority of propane tankless hot water heaters Energy Star-ranked.

The Bible against the Gospel?
Beyond what the editor and the publisher intended, The American Patriot's Bible is deeply American. It takes to a new level the remaking of Scripture into a marketable consumer good, a trend underway in the United States since at least the invention of the modern steam press in the early 19th century. (See R. Lawrence Moore's Selling God.) It also exemplifies the irony of American Protestants, who adhere to the sufficiency of Scripture for faith and life yet find the unadorned text of that Word not so sufficient after all. And finally, it provides further evidence of how theologically ill-equipped one dominant strand of American Christianity has been over the past few hundred years to know how to sojourn in America, how to conceive of the United States as part of the City of Man and of the church as a stranger in a strange land.
I agree fully. Here's my own take on this volume: http://tinyurl.com/pvtq86. Also on the Green Bible: http://tinyurl.com/qe39oh.

Wildlife & Disease
Dr. Christine Casey
Wildlife Veterinarian, KDFWR
Wildlife diseases were once viewed by wildlife managers as a normal process and limited interventions were implemented to manage diseases among wild animals. However, in the past several decades noticeable shifts in the dynamics of common diseases and the discovery of newly emerging diseases have caused managers to rethink this approach. These changes in the epidemiology of wildlife diseases are the result of multiple factors and complex interactions between the host, pathogen, and environment. However, one of the most significant changes and contributing factors is human activitiy that alters the landscape.
Human activities lead to increased interactions between humans, domestic animals, and wildlife which have dramatically altered natural disease dynamics. For example, there is an extensive list of diseases that have been introduced to new places around the world due to the movement of humans, animals, and goods. One example is the introduction of white nose syndrome in the United States which had devastating impacts on native bat populations. On the other side of the spectrum, the United States has served as a source for the spread of chronic wasting disease, a fatal neurologic disease of deer, to foreign countries. The lesson being, extreme caution should be used when moving people and animals around to minimize the risk of unintentionally introducing any pathogens they may be harboring. For this very reason the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources has restricted the movement of various species (both carcasses and live animals) to limit the spread of rabies, chronic wasting disease (CWD), and rabbit hemorrhagic disease to name a few. These movement restrictions are more important than ever, due to the recent detection of CWD less than 10 miles from our border in Tennessee.
Minimizing disease risk on the landscape starts at the local level where an individual can have the most impact. A few activities landowners in Kentucky may practice to minimize this disease risk are:
• Reduce activities like baiting and feeding, which can artificially increase animal densities
• Limit access of wildlife to food sources, such as pet food or seed
• Limit interactions between domestic animals and wildlife
• Protect yourself and pets from insects such as ticks and mosquitoes
• Reduce insect habitat immediately around your home by maintaining yards and removing leaf litter and debris
If you observe sick or dead wildlife, contact your local biologist and have a conversation about whether further investigation is warranted. Naturally, some level of disease is to be expected; however, being vigilant and notifying authorities regarding abnormal behavior or die-offs in wildlife is important and contributes greatly to disease surveillance efforts. Active public participation and support is vital for protecting this valuable public resource. Any steps you, as a private landowner, are willing to take to help us work toward this goal is greatly appreciated. For more information on wildlife diseases please visit our website at fw.ky.gov/disease.
