Automating the individual recognition of African wild dogs (Lycaon pictus)

Optimising the automated recognition of individual animals to support population monitoring
Reliable estimates of population size and demographic rates are central to assessing the status of threatened species. However, obtaining individual-based demographic rates requires long-term data, which is often costly and difficult to collect. Photographic data offer an inexpensive, non-invasive method for individual-based monitoring of species with unique markings, and could therefore increase available demographic data for many species. However, selecting suitable images and identifying individuals from photographic catalogues is prohibitively time-consuming. Automated identification software can significantly speed up this process. Nevertheless, automated methods for selecting suitable images are lacking, as are studies comparing the performance of the most prominent identification software packages.
In this study, we develop a framework that automatically selects images suitable for individual identification, and compare the performance of three commonly used identification software packages; Hotspotter, I3S-Pattern, and WildID. As a case study, we consider the African wild dog Lycaon pictus, a species whose conservation is limited by a lack of cost-effective large-scale monitoring. To evaluate intra-specific variation in the performance of software packages, we compare identification accuracy between two populations (in Kenya and Zimbabwe) that have markedly different coat colouration patterns.
The process of selecting suitable images was automated using Convolutional Neural Nets that crop individuals from images, filter out unsuitable images, separate left and right flanks, and remove image backgrounds. Hotspotter had the highest image-matching accuracy for both populations. However, the accuracy was significantly lower for the Kenyan population (62%), compared to the Zimbabwean population (88%).
Our automated image pre-processing has immediate application for expanding monitoring based on image-matching. However, the difference in accuracy between populations highlights that population-specific detection rates are likely and may influence certainty in derived statistics. For species such as the African wild dog, where monitoring is both challenging and expensive, automated individual recognition could greatly expand and expedite conservation efforts

Thresholds for adding degraded tropical forest to the conservation estate
\ua9 2024. The Author(s). Logged and disturbed forests are often viewed as degraded and depauperate environments compared with primary forest. However, they are dynamic ecosystems1 that provide refugia for large amounts of biodiversity2,3, so we cannot afford to underestimate their conservation value4. Here we present empirically defined thresholds for categorizing the conservation value of logged forests, using one of the most comprehensive assessments of taxon responses to habitat degradation in any tropical forest environment. We analysed the impact of logging intensity on the individual occurrence patterns of 1,681 taxa belonging to 86 taxonomic orders and 126 functional groups in Sabah, Malaysia. Our results demonstrate the existence of two conservation-relevant thresholds. First, lightly logged forests (<29% biomass removal) retain high conservation value and a largely intact functional composition, and are therefore likely to recover their pre-logging values if allowed to undergo natural regeneration. Second, the most extreme impacts occur in heavily degraded forests with more than two-thirds (>68%) of their biomass removed, and these are likely to require more expensive measures to recover their biodiversity value. Overall, our data confirm that primary forests are irreplaceable5, but they also reinforce the message that logged forests retain considerable conservation value that should not be overlooked
Variable responses of individual species to tropical forest degradation
The functional stability of ecosystems depends greatly on interspecific differences in responses to environmental perturbation. However, responses to perturbation are not necessarily invariant among populations of the same species, so intraspecific variation in responses might also contribute. Such inter-population response diversity has recently been shown to occur spatially across species ranges, but we lack estimates of the extent to which individual populations across an entire community might have perturbation responses that vary through time. We assess this using 524 taxa that have been repeatedly surveyed for the effects of tropical forest logging at a focal landscape in Sabah, Malaysia. Just 39 % of taxa – all with non-significant responses to forest degradation – had invariant responses. All other taxa (61 %) showed significantly different responses to the same forest degradation gradient across surveys, with 6 % of taxa responding to forest degradation in opposite directions across multiple surveys. Individual surveys had low power (< 80 %) to determine the correct direction of response to forest degradation for one-fifth of all taxa. Recurrent rounds of logging disturbance increased the prevalence of intra-population response diversity, while uncontrollable environmental variation and/or turnover of intraspecific phenotypes generated variable responses in at least 44 % of taxa. Our results show that the responses of individual species to local environmental perturbations are remarkably flexible, likely providing an unrealised boost to the stability of disturbed habitats such as logged tropical forests

Believing that you are Interested ln maintaining government by the
people as oppose-) to government by brewers or any other i-.peelal Interest,
1 write to hsK your support of Mr. H. *. SlmKlns ror Assemblyman.
There are three candidates ror the Republican nomination In your
distrtct--D. B. Hayes, the present Assemblyman, T. P. Kerr of San Jose
and H. W. SlmKlns or i'alo Alto.
In the last Assembly Mr. Hayes voted in favor*or every vicious
amendment to the Local Option Law and against that Law as finally passed.
He also votud with the minority against a constitutional amendment making lt possible to prohibit females rrom being employed ln places where
liquor ls sold. He took the brewers' program throughout. When we remember that all the Local Option Law does is to put into the hands or
the voters the power to partially settle their local liquor question by
direct vote, we must realize that Mr. Hayes was ready to protect the
liquor traffic at the cost of the people's rights. This certainly makes
him an unsafe representative tn the Legislature.
Ur. Kerr's affiliations are such that nothing better can be expected
from him.
Mr. Slmklns ls an out and out anti-saloon man, and is well qualified
to represent his district ln the Legislature. The best interest of the
state .demands his nomination on September 3rd, and I sincerely hope you
will do all ln your power to bring this about. No more Important work
for California can be done In your district during the next few days
than to Insure the nomination or Wr. Slmklns.
Yours for a Country Clean and Prosperous,

Takes Advanced Ground RegartUng

Washington, Dec. 15.—
message on the Japanese question
aud the California school problem
supplementary to tbe discussion of
these same subjects by President
Roosevelt In his regular message, wlll
be sent to Congress from tbe White
House next Tuesday. It Is glvo out
bere autborltatlrely that this special message will be more vigorous
lu tone Mi.ui tho former commuuica-
Uoa, and wlll not be calculated to
cool the Indignation of Callfornlans
previously aroused. The special
ine-jsage, moreover, aside from IU
locul application, will be one of tbe
most Important communications In
the entire list ot those sent to Con*
■-•■■.-■> by tho present executive, lt
will bring to a direct Issue thu cen-
tralUatlon scheme of the Government.' wblch la ligcty to lorm the
climax of endeavor on the part of the
Roosevelt administration. Tne adm-
Islration Is about to take advanced
ground regarding the doctrine ol
Federal supremacy ovur Stale sovereignty. The Japanese question
nthti-d In connection with the public
schools of California has supplied
the opportunity to give forcible expression to the mighty scheme of centralization that is to bo perfected If
possible. It In impossible at thi . writing to forecast ln detail what tbe
1'resldeut wilt say in nls second mea*
sane on the Japanese question. Accompanying his message, which, it Im
understood will be a full explanation
of the administration's projected
policy us to ths supremacy of Federal
over State, power will be the report
or the special investigation of the
San Francisco school question made
by Secretary of Commerce and Labor
Metcutf. Regardless of Ibe nature ol
thla report, the President wlll ad-j
here vigorou-tly to the i>osltion taken,
by blm In bis regular met-sage, whlcb ;
was written before ho left Washing-!
ton to visit thc canal xnne and before [
he had anything at all from Secretary Metcalf. But as to the Metcall
report, It baa been learned that Itl
author found much to conOetjiu In I
the matter of the treatment of Jap-'
anesc outside of the schocl qui-silon.':
His report, lu fact, will furnish a
now sensation. It will show, it Ir
understood, labor union tyranny over
Japanese which affect* tbe rights
hold to be theirs by treaty In even
more pronounced manner than any-
thing connected with the hciioo! Imbroglio. .Matters ol this nature embraced In Secretary Meicalf's report
will furnish the key lor mnny argument*) to he advanced by thc Prealdent In his iii.-;*.i--".
