Conservation got some historic tobacco samples that needed a new enclosure before going to the stacks. We made CoLibri (TM) enclosures for each one, then made a box for them all to fit into.
The individual enclosures finished.

In a non-descript building on the edge of Knoxville are rows of aquariums housing some of the rarest fish in the world. It’s the core of a tremendous effort to conserve southern Appalachian’s most imperiled fishes, and its success depends on the steady flow of electricity to keep the water cool and full of oxygen – a steady flow that has been ensured thanks to the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Conservation Fisheries, Inc. was founded in 1986 by a pair of fellow University of Tennessee graduate students, J.R. Shute and Pat Rakes. Over the years, they’ve worked with more than 70 species of fish and their ability to raise rare fish in captivity has been the lynchpin of fish conservation across the region, including the stocking effort that brought a pair of tiny catfish, the federally threatened yellowfin madtom and endangered smoky madtom, back to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. They also hold “ark” populations of extremely rare fishes, maintaining enough individuals, with representative genetic diversity, to reestablish it should it ever go extinct in the wild. For example, there are populations of the rare Barrens topminnow which have disappeared in the wild, but effectively live on at their facility.
The facility had a small portable generator that could keep the tanks’ pumps going in the event of an emergency, but keeping the air conditioning going to ensure cool water throughout the facility was doubtful. A new TVA-donated generator brings a much greater degree of security to the facility because it automatically turns on during an outage and can power the entire building.

Project: Conservation, restoration and wise use of calcareous fens (2004-2010)
While sustainable grazing is beneficial for the maintenance of Slovakia’s calcareous fens, other
agricultural practices such as arable farming lead
to their degradation.

This image/clip is a result from the Cascades Citizen Wildlife Monitoring Project. Volunteers head out into the field to help us better understand wildlife movement and animal presence in the Washington Cascades and beyond. Volunteers combine wintertime snow tracking with year-long remote camera work.
