Resumen
AbstractThe burrowing ecology of 12 adult and nine juvenile Louisiana pine snakes, Pituophis ruthveni, was studied during 1995-1997 in north-central Louisiana, U.S.A. Significantly more adult burrows connected to pocket gopher (Geomys breviceps) tunnels than did juvenile burrows, although a relatively high number of adult and juvenile snake burrows were blind-ended. Significantly more adult snake burrows were located in pine plantations and grasslands and significantly less were located in clearcuts than expected. Significantly more juvenile snake burrows were located in pine plantations than expected. Adult and juvenile snake burrows were located in areas that had relatively less leaf litter and canopy closure than expected. Excavation behavior by P. ruthveni was stereotyped and similar to excavation behavior by the bullsnake, Pituophis catenifer sayi and the northern pine snake, Pituophis melanoleucus melanoleucus.

Resumen
The substrate is the key environmental factor that affects the growth, survival, population and distribution of dwelling mollusks in mudflat settings. To clarify the effect of the substrate grain size on soft substrate preference, burrowing ability and behavior during the selection process of juvenile Meretrix meretrix, four different grain size substrates (coarse sand, medium sand, fine sand, and natural substrate) were set up for comparison. The results indicated that: (1) the burrowing ability of juvenile specimens in fine sand was the strongest; (2) the degree (from high to low) of the juvenile’s preference for the four substrates was in the order of fine sand > natural substrate > medium sand > coarse sand; and (3) the selection process of the substrate by the juveniles could be divided into four stages: preparation, selection, burrowing and end stages. These stages showed the behavioral characteristics of a longer selection time and higher percentage of movement in coarse sand. Therefore, our results demonstrated that sea areas or ponds with fine sand as the main component are more suitable for stock enhancement with M. meretrix. These results provide basic data for habitat selection and suitability evaluations for the aquaculture of M. meretrix.

Resumen
Abstract Using radiotelemetry, we monitored dispersing juvenile Western Burrowing Owls (Athene cunicularia hypugaea) within a migratory population in southwestern Idaho during 1994 and 1995. Owls remained within natal areas for an average (± SE) of 58 ± 3.4 days post-hatching before moving permanently beyond 300 m, which was our operational cutoff for dispersal from the natal area. On average, owls dispersed on 27 July (range: 15 July to 22 August), which was approximately 4 weeks after fledging. After initiating dispersal, juveniles continued moving farther away from their natal burrows and, by 61–65 days post-hatching, they had moved 0.6 ± 0.2 km. Each juvenile used 5.1 ± 1.2 satellite burrows, and individual satellite burrows were used for up to 14 days. The average date on which we last sighted radio-tagged juveniles was 13 August, and all but one juvenile departed the study area by early September. Our study illustrates the importance of satellite burrows to dispersing Burrowing Owls.

Resumen
Abstract. Although the burrowing activity of some species (e.g., gophers) is well studied, a comprehensive inventory of burrowing animals in adjacent biomes is not yet known, despite the potential importance of burrowing activity on the physical and chemical evolution of Earth's surface. In this study, we review the available information with a focus on the following: (a) an inventory of burrowing vertebrates and invertebrates along the climate and ecological gradient in Chile; (b) the dimensions and characteristics of burrows; and (c) calculation of excavation rates by local species compositions. Methods used include a literature compilation (> 1000 studies) of Chilean burrowing animal species integrated with global, species-specific excavation rates. A field study augments literature findings with quantification of the zoogeomorphic effects on hillslope mass transport at the animal community level and along the arid to humid–temperate climate gradient within the Chilean Coastal Cordillera (27–38∘ S latitude). The literature review indicates a minimum of 45 vertebrate and 345 invertebrate burrowing species distributed across Chile in different biomes. Burrowing depths for Chilean mammals range between 3 m (e.g., for skunks, Conepatus) and 0.25 m (for rock rats, Aconaemys). For invertebrates, burrowing depths in Chile range between 1 m for scorpions to 0.3 m for spiders. In comparison, globally documented maximum burrow depths reach up to more than 6 m for vertebrates (gopher tortoises and aardvarks) and 4 m for invertebrates (ants). Minimum excavation rates of local animal communities observed from field sites in Chile are 0.34 m3 ha−1 yr−1 for the arid site, 0.56 m3 ha−1 yr−1 for the semiarid site, 0.93 m3 ha−1 yr−1 for the mediterranean site and 0.09 m3 ha−1 yr−1 for the humid–temperate site, with the latter likely an underestimation. The calculated minimum Chilean excavation rates are within the large range of globally observed single species rates ranging between 0.01 and 56.20 m3 ha−1 yr−1 for vertebrates and from 0.01 to 37.31 m3 ha−1 yr−1 for invertebrates. Taken together, results not only highlight the diverse and latitudinally varying number of burrowing vertebrates and invertebrates present in different biomes, but also foster the understanding of how burrowing activity changes over a gradient and is influenced by mean annual temperature, mean annual precipitation, slope aspect and latitudinal-related incoming solar energy.

Resumen
AbstractBurrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia) populations have declined extensively throughout much of North America, and modeling demography may assist conservation. However, few studies have estimated adult survival, and fewer still have determined juvenile survival. In 2003 and 2004 we monitored survival of 40 radio-tagged juveniles during the postfledging period in the Little Missouri National Grassland, North Dakota, where owls nested in black-tailed prairie dog (Cynomys ludovicianus) colonies. Survival averaged 0.57 (95% CI: 0.41–0.73) prior to autumn migration. Mortality was highest during the first two weeks after nest departure when juveniles were flightless, and two to three weeks later when juveniles became independent. Predation or starvation was implicated in most deaths. Distribution and abundance of escape cover (number of prairie dog burrows within 30 m of nests and size of the natal prairie dog colony) did not affect survival. Body condition and brood size at the time of radio-tagging also did not influence survival. Juvenile owls exhibited nest-centered dispersal, and averaged 108 ± 21 (SE) m and 82 ± 17 m from nests at initiation of migration in 2003 and 2004, respectively. Mean dates of departure from the study area were 2 September (± 3 days) 2003 and 24 August (± 2 days) 2004. Mortality during the postfledging period accounted for approximately two-thirds of mortality in the first year of life.

Resumen
The purpose of this chapter is to evoke new concepts, provide guidelines and new frontiers for future research, and demonstrate that invertebrate traces actually comprise the “backbone” of continental (as well as marine) ichnology. Invertebrate organisms that inhabit the continental, nonmarine realm include some of the most diverse and populous classes in the animal kingdom. For example, both the Insecta and Crustacea exhibit burrowing behaviors unique to subaqueous freshwater and subaerial systems. Because of the sheer biomass of burrowing pupae, larvae, juvenile, and adult stages of these organisms, invertebrates dependent on the position of the water table form the basis for ecological niche-partitioning of depositional systems within all of the continental realm. A distinction must be made here between continental and marine ichnocoenoses because they represent distinctly different styles of living. These in turn dictate different behavioral and genetic responses of the organisms that inhabit them. Burrow architectures that occur in both continental and marine ichnocoenoses can be differentiated by subtle differences in morphology that are due to convergence of the burrowing mechanisms of the respective organisms.

Resumen
Abstract Burrowing crayfishes have historically lacked life history data due to their elusive nature and difficultly extracting them from burrows. This review provides a synopsis of current literature on burrowing crayfishes’ life histories and a quantitative analysis of published life history content. Only 69 publications covering 94 burrowing species (approx. 39%) met our criteria for a life history study. Many species had only partial life histories documented and two genera (Engaewa and Tenuibranchiurus) had no life history studies available. Size and reproductive season were the most recorded traits across studies while others such as mortality and age/size at molting events were rarely recorded. Reproductive investment, an important predictor of imperilment, was lacking in 87% of burrowing species. Our review emphasizes the need to include life history data with new species descriptions and conduct basic life history studies to effectively assess data-deficient species and protect the future of our threatened burrowing crayfishes.

Resumen
Abstract The behavioural ecology of a free-living population of the European wild rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus was studied from 1979 through to 1983. Female rabbits competed with each other for access to nest sites in burrows and males competed for access to females. As the nest sites were clumped in multi-entrance burrow systems, known as warrens, the females were also clumped in their dispersion. This led to the formation of stable social or breeding groups containing up to 20 adult individuals. This paper describes patterns of dispersal between these social groups. Juveniles dispersed at higher rates than adults. Juvenile males were the most mobile, 66.7% first breeding in groups using warrens other than those used by the groups into which they were born, while adult females were the most sedentary, only 4.6% changing groups between successive breeding seasons. The average distance moved varied from 149 m for juvenile females to 264 m for juvenile males. The longest recorded distance moved was 2250 m. Dispersal was significantly male-biased amongst both juveniles and adults. Few juveniles were known to have dispersed before the age of three months; the peak age at dispersal was approximately five months. Dispersal rates were low at the beginning of the breeding season and peaked during the autumn. There was no difference between dispersing and non-dispersing juveniles in the time of year of their birth; however, there was some evidence suggesting that certain individuals were more predisposed to undertake dispersal than others. There were no differences in burrow availability or breeding success for the natal groups of dispersing and non-dispersing juveniles, nor were there any differences in these parameters for the groups in which surviving dispersers and non dispersers subsequently bred. Dispersing juveniles, however, moved to groups where burrow availability per juvenile was higher than in their natal groups.

Resumen
Abstract A review of the literature on nesting habits of birds shows that burrow-nesting is regular among only a few species, mostly among Procellariidae, Hydrobatidae, Pelecanoididae and Alcidae, which are all seabirds. With the exception of puffins, most burrow-nesting seabird species visit their colonies only at night. Nesting densities attained by burrowing seabirds can be very high (up to three burrows per square metre). Anecdotal records describe habitat destruction through soil erosion due to burrowing by puffins and shearwaters. However, I present some evidence to suggest that shearwater activity can stabilize slopes.

Abstract Studies on marine wood-boring organisms including those infesting the mangrove vegetation are of recent origin. Investigations on marine wood-borers from the Indian ocean were initiated only after 1954 (Santhakumaran 1985). Literature concerning the mangrove wood-borers is reviewed by Santhakumaran (1983). Mangroves of Pakistan are severely damaged by wood-borers, in addition to other factors. Five molluscan borers and one crustacean have been recorded. The distribution, intensity and seasonal abundance of wood-borers from the mangroves of the Karachi coast have been extensively studied.

Resumen
The literature regarding the benefits of earthworms is fairly ancient. Aristotle, the Greek philosopher, referred to them as ‘intestines of earth' because of their habit of ingesting and ejecting the soil. In the subtropical regions of Egypt and India, the success of the ancient civilization of the Nile and the Indus Valley was partly due to the fertile soils created by the activity of the earthworms and by the continual renewal of the land by the alluvium process. During the Cleopatra era (69-30 BC), the earthworm was declared a sacred animal in the ancient Egypt. Later Darwin remarked the earthworms have played more roles throughout the history of the world than any other animal. Besides to contribute in physical structure and nutritive value of the soil by burrowing and feeding they can also be a potential pollution hazard. They are useful tool in environment monitoring and are good indicators of condition of soils. This chapter reviews soil contamination that influences earthworms and how they cope-up in contaminated environment.

Resumen
Pinocchio, the first and the most famous artificial character in children’s literature, was created by Carlo Collodi in 1881. The article analyzes the reasons for the character’s popularity in literature for children and youth, which appear to be found in the permanent development of the latter, both physical and psychological. At the same time, young readers to whom the text is addressed are also in the process of developing their self-identity. Based on analysis of the corpus of modern French novels for young people that involve hybrid beings (combining the properties of human beings and machines), the article explores intertextuality and philosophical foundations of the narrative (including the development of the concepts of “animal machines” by René Descartes and “human machines” by Julien Offray de La Mettrie), demonstrating a high didactic potential of such literature.

Resumen
The latest years have shown a relationship between the famous endocannabinoid system and pain processing, bringing the possibility of its exogenous form, phytocannabinoids, for treatment of epilepsy, neuropathic pain, and now migraine. This review seeks to evaluate the present literature and analyze the possibility of phytocannabinoids in migraine treatment. Based on the literature of the latest 20 years, the research terms were: "endocannabinoids and migrânea", "phytocannabinoids and migrânea" and "migrânea juvenile and cannabidiol", with 128 results total, of which only 19 have fitted the criteria for analysis. Though is a very pertinent theme, there is no literature enough for clinical analysis of the use of phytocannabinoid in migraine, even when the results in an animal model and reviews have shown a positive effect, it is not possible to speculate the dose, safety, and efficacy in clinical use for now. More randomized human trials are necessary.
