SHAH ALAM: Following an outcry from animal lovers, Shah Alam City Council (MBSA) has clarified that it has no intention of killing stray dogs caught in a planned exercise in Setia Alam.
A bull elephant seal rests on the sand at Drakes Beach in Inverness, California. — PHILIP PACHECO/AFP/Getty Images/TNSOnce on the brink of extinction, elephant seals are expanding north into new breeding grounds along the California coast, turning long-empty beaches into a ruckus of roars, grunts, chirps and moans.
The tags make it possible to trace the origins of a group as they pick a breeding ground. For instance, it’s known that newborns on the Humboldt beach descend from animals who ventured north from Point Reyes, but also Año Nuevo and San Simeon. Their distant ancestors were wanderers, venturing from warm Caribbean waters through an ancient sea that once separated North and South America.
“So far, the species has recovered remarkably well, but these findings call into question how susceptible it might be to environmental stresses in the future,” Durham University molecular ecologist Rus Hoelzel wrote in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution. But overcrowded colonies can spell trouble for newborns, UCSC research found. With higher population density, there is more adult conflict – fighting females, tumultuous males. Pups, who get lost or waste energy trying to find their mother, tend to be smaller in size.
