Feral rabbits are a major pest in Australia, particularly in rural areas like Shoalhaven Region, NSW. Control measures have become ineffective or inhumane. Effective long-term measures are needed to protect agriculture while minimizing harm to the environment and other species. The document discusses current control methods, the impacts of rabbits, and plans by government to address the issue through community involvement and release of a new virus strain from 2015-2030.

Question: What are the current recommenda-
tions for pediatric healthcare professionals
managing bat exposure in children?
John S. Murray, PhD, RN, CPNP, FAAN, Marcia
K. Stephens, RN, and Parag M. Amin, MD
respond: In the United States, there are approxi-
mately 40 different species of bats. While most bats are
harmless, and various types are even beneficial (e.g.,
those that feed on insects harmful to crops), some may
be infected with, and transmit, rabies. Public health
concern regarding rabies has changed dramatically
over the past several decades. Before the 1960s, most
cases of rabies involved domestic animals (e.g., dogs
and cats). Today the primary hosts for rabies are wild
predatory animals (e.g., raccoon, fox, and coyote) and
bats. In fact, in the United States, the most common
source of rabies transmission to humans is from bats
(Figure 1; Baker, 2012; Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention [CDC], 2011a; CDC Advisory
Committee on Immunization Practices [ACIP], 2008;
National Association of State Public Health
Veterinarians, 2011). While death from rabies is a rare
occurrence in the United States, it is estimated that
16,000–39,000 people annually are exposed to poten-
tially rabid animals requiring post-exposure care (CDC
Immunization Action Coalition, 2013).
TYPES OF EXPOSURE
Under most circumstances, two types of exposure to
bats are possible: bite and non-bite (CDC, 2011b; CDC
ACIP, 2008; DeMaria, 2014). Bites are defined as any
penetration of the skin by the teeth of a bat. This route
of exposure is considered to be the most serious.
However, bat bites are often so small, and with limited
injury, that they go unnoticed (Figure 2). Rabies
exposure can also occur when the virus, from poten-
tially infectious secretions of the bat such as saliva,
come in contact with open cuts, scratches, abrasions,
or the mucous membranes of a child. Other situations
that qualify as exposure include a bat found in prox-
imity to a child who is not able to describe what hap-
pened or who is unable to rule out the occurrence of
direct contact, or a parent who witnesses a live bat in a
room where a child was unattended at the time (e.g.,
bedroom, playroom). Additionally, a bat located on
the floor where an infant, toddler, or child with
sensory or mental impairment is situated is also con-
sidered to be a contact risk. If there is ever a question
regarding exposure, state and local health depart-
ments should be contacted for guidance. The type of

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Problem Statement
Rapid breeding of feral rabbits causes
significant environmental issues
throughout Australia, particularly
in rural and farming locations
such as Shoalhaven Region, NSW.
Image: “Rabbit” (The Advertiser, 2014)
Control measures have become ineffective or considered
inhumane (ABC Science, 2009; Invasive Animals Cooperative Research Centre, 2014).
3. Image: “Rabbit Plague” (The Advertiser, 2014)
Effective control measures require consideration of the
on-flow effects to other living things and the environment.
“What measures may be implemented to
ensure long term protection from the impact of
pest rabbits in the Shoalhaven Region?”
Image: “Rabbit” (The Advertiser, 2014)
4. Here is why you should care about it…
Feral rabbits are
“Australia’s greatest pest”
(Drollette, 1996, p.192),
threatening
“86 plant and animal species in NSW”
(Saunders, Cooke, McColl, Shine & Peacock, 2010, p.289)
costing Australian Agriculture
“$115million year” in overgrazing” (NSW Dept of Env. & Cons., 2011).
Image: “Rabbit Damage”
(Darling Downs Moreton Rabbit Board, 2014)
5. Mass elimination
of pest rabbits
disrupts animal food chains,
resulting in pest animals such as foxes
attacking poultry, livestock and domestic pets.
Image: Fox & Rabbit (Morrison, 2012)Image: Fox (Getty Images,2013)
6. However, no action results in
rabbit plagues destroying farmland
with overgrazing,
threatening food supplies and the economy.
Image: “Rabbit Plague” (The Advertiser, 2014)
7. Therefore, it is essential we find a
balanced solution
to ensure
future sustainability.
Images: “Rabbit Balance” (Top 10 of Anything and Everything, 2014)
8. * How do current rabbit control methods in the
Shoalhaven Region address future sustainability?
* What plan could be put in place to prevent future rabbit
outbreaks, ensuring social, cultural and scientific issues
are addressed? How would this plan affect other species,
the ecosystem and surrounding areas?
* How is funding and approval obtained? Is the plan
feasible?
9. Key Findings
Australia’s rabbit infestation, human population
and land area is too large for
mechanical rabbit control methods
such as baiting or shooting to be effective
or financially viable as a single solution.
(Rabbitscan, 2014).
Image: “Rabbitshooting “(The Australian, 2012).Image: “BunnyBait “(The Farmstore, 2013).
10. Biological control methods
such as releasing the
“Rabbit Callici Virus (RHDV)”
as employed by Shoalhaven Council
(Shoalhaven City Council, 2014, par.2)
have proven successful in the past
however
rabbits are developing immunity to these viruses.
Image: RHDV (University of Otago, 2014)
11. Alternate control methods may take up to
ten years to plan and implement (Saunders, et.al., 2010).
Image: Ten Years (Al-Haq, 2014)
12. The Australian Government are
planning to
release strengthened strains of the RHDV Virus
from South Korea,
during 2015 to 2030
(Austin, 2014, par.1 & 11).
13. Federal and NSW State Government
aim to engage community support to protect the agriculture
industry from future rabbit plagues formulating;
“The Intergovernmental Agreement on Biosecurity
(IGAB) in 2012”
(Commonwealth of Australia, 2014)
“New South Wales Biosecurity Strategy 2013-2021”
(NSW Dept. of Primary Industries, 2013, p.1)
“Rabbitscan.net.au website” in 2011
(NSW Dept. of Primary Industries, 2013, p.23)
14. The “Rabbitscan.net.au website”
(NSW Dept. of Primary Industries, 2013)
tracks evidence of rabbits and their impact
and includes a mapping tool
for community members to
create local area rabbit management plans.
Images: Rabbit Warren & Rabbit (Washington Dept. of Fish & Wildlife, 2014)
15. Whilst Government Plans aim to address rabbit plagues, plans
are only successful with community support
as rabbits will continue breeding and
spreading from areas where action is not being taken.
Image: Property. (New Designs for Growth, 2008)
16. Images: Genetic Researchers (Govt. of S.A. Biosecurity2013)
Based upon found evidence,
rabbits will continue developing resistance to introduced viruses.
Researchers must continue to
develop new biological control systems
or alternate control methods to ensure future sustainability.
17. NSW Local Land Services Act (2013) states;
“All land managers in NSW, whether on
public or private land,
have an obligation to
control declared pest species on their land”.
(New South Wales Government Local Land Services, 2014)
Local Council and Government
are responsible for public land only.
Call to action…
Our community must work together.
Images: “Elmer Fudd” (Photobucket, 2014)
18. Government strategies aim
to increase community support.
We can assist by;
• Reporting increased rabbit or pest animal activity to Local Land Service
Offices.
• Obtaining advice, newsletters, purchase baits, attend field days and join
group control programs with the Local Land Services Office.
Image: Community (Local Land Services Northern Tablelands, 2014)
19. • Attend a Local Land Services Office landowner chemical application training
course to obtain five-year accreditation for the use of chemicals 1080 and
pindone baits on your property.
• Inform friends, family and neighbours of the Government’s plans and website
and their responsibility as a landowner to address pest rabbits.
• Work together with neighbouring properties to formulate coordinated plans
for rabbit removal.
Image: “Local Land Services “ (NSW Govt. 2014)
20. • Support Australian Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce’s plan to release “a
new strain of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (calicivirus) from South
Korea within two years” delivering “strengthened RHDV strains from about
2015 to 2030, followed by any new bio-control agents available” (Austin, 2014,
par.1 & 11).
• Support Government requests for funding to assist Australian Agriculture.
Image: “Barnaby Joyce“ (The Australian, 2011)Image: “Funding Agriculture’s Future“ (Aust. Farm Institute, 2014)
21. Links to the Australian Curriculum (ACARA, 2014)
This aspect is prominent in the inquiry findings, as the Australian Government have
evaluated environmental and economic success of managing rabbit-outbreaks in past
practices and as a result, assess global scientific developments and developed a plan to
release “a new strengthened strain of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (calicivirus) from
South Korea within two years, with the virus to be released from 2015 to 2030, followed
by any new bio-control agents available” (Austin, 2014, par.1;par.11).
22. Reflection What advice would you give to students taking IATW next year?
• Spend time and thought when selecting your topic as it forms the
basis of study for the entire unit. Select a topic of interest or relative
to you or your local area.
• Prior to deciding on your topic, draft a mindmap of ideas and google
references to ensure valid and current information are available.
Familiarise yourself with the Australian Curriculum Cross-curricular
priorities (Sustainability) and Science prior to commencing with your
topic, to have a clear vision of how your topic will match with
learning outcomes.
• Become familiar with the requirements of all assessment tasks prior
to selecting your topic to ensure this is the path you wish to take.
• Enjoy the self-directed learning journey!
