In 2011 AnimalResources shared with leading cat advocates Ashley Gramza's research and presentations at various wildlife and conservation venues on the Ecological Role of Domestic Cats in Urbanizing Landscapes with Crooks, VandeWoude, Teel; and Allan O'Connell's (USGS) work assessing predator effects on Florida Keys Marsh Rabbits and book about remote camera traps.

S DuBois - if this presenter is Sara DuBois, Wildlife Manager of the BCSPCA, I have her 2010 article, "On the Path to Compassionate Conservation" and her 2003 thesis about wildlife rehab (in 2007 I shared info I'd compiled about animal compassion fatigue with an academic and writer.)

David Bergman of USDA Wildlife Services (Phoenix) is familiar to me from articles in my files such as
The Economic Impact of Invasive Species to Wildlife Service Cooperators
from a 2000 symposium. I have previously shared with leading cat advocates all the varying versions of Pimentel about so-called environmental and economic costs of invasives including feral cats.
