Wildlife in the Anthropocene : Conservation after Nature
Elephants rarely breed in captivity and are not considered domesticated, yet they interact with people regularly and adapt to various environments.Too social and sagacious to be objects, too strange to be human, too captive to truly be wild, but too wild to be domesticated—where do elephants fall in our understanding of nature?In Wildlife in the Anthropocene, Jamie Lorimer argues that the idea of nature as a pure and timeless place characterized by the absence of humans has come to an end.But life goes on. Wildlife inhabits everywhere and is on the move; Lorimer proposes the concept of wildlife as a replacement for nature.Offering a thorough appraisal of the Anthropocene—an era in which human actions affect and influence all life and all systems on our planet— Lorimer unpacks its implications for changing definitions of nature and the politics of wildlife conservation.Wildlife in the Anthropocene examines rewilding, the impacts of wildlife films, human relationships with charismatic species, and urban wildlife.Analyzing scientific papers, policy documents, and popular media, as well as a decade of fieldwork, Lorimer explores the new interconnections between science, politics, and neoliberal capitalism that the Anthropocene demands of wildlife conservation.Imagining conservation in a world where humans are geological actors entangled within and responsible for powerful, unstable, and unpredictable planetary forces, this work nurtures a future environmentalism that is more hopeful and democratic.

Why is there dust in the house, but not in nature?
Dust in the house is primarily made up of human and animal skin cells, hair, clothing fibers, and other indoor pollutants. These particles are constantly being shed and circulated within the confined space of a house, leading to the accumulation of dust. In nature, however, these particles are dispersed and broken down by natural processes such as wind, rain, and sunlight. Additionally, outdoor environments have larger spaces and better ventilation, which prevents the buildup of dust.

Should one say "dust" first or wipe the dust first?
It is more effective to say "dust" first and then wipe the dust. By saying "dust" first, you are alerting yourself to the task at hand and mentally preparing to remove the dust. This can help you focus and be more thorough in your dusting. Additionally, by saying "dust" first, you are setting a clear intention for the action you are about to take, which can make the task feel more purposeful and satisfying.

How exactly can one combat dust mite allergy or dust mites?
To combat dust mite allergies or dust mites, it is important to reduce the number of dust mites in your home. This can be done by regularly washing bedding in hot water, using allergen-proof covers on pillows and mattresses, and vacuuming carpets and upholstered furniture frequently. Additionally, maintaining low humidity levels in the home, using air purifiers with HEPA filters, and keeping clutter to a minimum can also help reduce dust mites and alleviate allergy symptoms.

Are these dust mites?
Without a clear image or description of what you are referring to, it is difficult to definitively say whether they are dust mites. Dust mites are microscopic organisms that are not visible to the naked eye. If you suspect you have dust mites in your home, it is best to consult with a professional for proper identification and treatment.

Conservation Physiology : Applications for Wildlife Conservation and Management
Conservation physiology is a rapidly expanding, multidisciplinary field that utilizes physiological knowledge and tools to understand and solve conservation challenges.This novel text provides the first consolidated overview of its scope, purpose, and applications, with a focus on wildlife.It outlines the major avenues and advances by which conservation physiology is contributing to the monitoring, management, and restoration of wild animal populations.This book also defines opportunities for further growth in the field and identifies critical areas for future investigation.By using a series of global case studies, contributors illustrate how approaches from the conservation physiology toolbox can tackle a diverse range of conservation issues including the monitoring of environmental stress, predicting the impact of climate change, understanding disease dynamics, improving captive breeding, and reducing human-wildlife conflict.Moreover, by acting as practical road maps across a diversity of sub-disciplines, these case studies serve to increase the accessibility of this discipline to new researchers.The diversity of taxa, biological scales, and ecosystems highlighted illustrate the far-reaching nature of the discipline and allow readers to gain an appreciation for the purpose, value, applicability, and status of the field of conservation physiology. Conservation Physiology is an accessible supplementary textbook suitable for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in the fields of conservation science, eco-physiology, evolutionary and comparative physiology, natural resources management, ecosystem health, veterinary medicine, animal physiology, and ecology.

Do flies eat dust?
Flies do not eat dust. Flies are attracted to decaying organic matter, such as food scraps, feces, and other sources of nutrients. They feed by regurgitating digestive enzymes onto their food source and then sucking up the liquefied nutrients. Dust is primarily made up of particles like skin cells, pollen, and soil, which do not provide the necessary nutrients for flies to feed on.
-
What arises from dust?
From dust arises new life, as it is the fundamental building block of all living organisms. Dust can also symbolize transformation and renewal, as it can be scattered and reformed into something new. Metaphorically, dust can represent the passage of time and the impermanence of life.
-
Are dust mites lice?
No, dust mites are not lice. Dust mites are microscopic arachnids that feed on dead skin cells and are commonly found in household dust. Lice, on the other hand, are small parasitic insects that infest the hair and feed on blood. While both dust mites and lice can cause irritation and allergic reactions in some people, they are different organisms with distinct characteristics and behaviors.
-
Does heat attract dust?
Yes, heat can attract dust. When the air is warm, it becomes less dense and rises, causing air currents to circulate. These air currents can pick up dust particles and carry them through the air. Additionally, warm air can cause surfaces to expand and create small air currents that can lift and carry dust particles. Therefore, heat can contribute to the movement and circulation of dust in the environment.
