Rats, not men, to blame for death of Easter Island
By Roger Dobson Published: 07 January 2007 It was the first and most extreme ecological disaster. Easter Island, in the south Pacific, once lush with subtropical broadleaf forest, was left barren and vast seabird colonies were destroyed after the arrival of man. But now there is new evidence that human beings may not have been responsible for the destruction after all. Although Easter Island has long been held to be the most important example of a traditional society destroying itself, it appears that the real culprits were rats - up to three million of them. This contradicts the belief that the native population's obsession with carving, constructing, and transporting its famous statues around the island led it to deplete its own natural resources, going into what has been called "a downward spiral of cultural regression". "A theme of self-inflicted, pre-European contact ecocide is common in published accounts," says the anthropologist Dr Terry Hunt, who led the research at the University of Hawaii. "Easter Island has become a paragon for prehistoric human-induced ecological catastrophe and cultural collapse. Scholars offer this story as a parable of today's global environmental problems." He has examined new data from the Hawaiian and other Pacific islands that shows that by early historic times the deforestation of Easter Island was already complete, or nearly so. A dense forest of palm trees and more than 20 other types of trees and shrubs had mostly disappeared. As many as six land birds and several seabirds had also become extinct. The island had a relatively simple ecosystem with vegetation once dominated by millions of palms. The original ecosystem of the island, with a limited range of plants, and few if any predators, would, says the report, have been particularly vulnerable to alien invasions. Almost all of the palm seed shells discovered on the island were found to have been gnawed by rats. Thousands of rat bones have been found, and crucially, much of the damage to forestry appears to have been done before evidence of fires on the island. Evidence from other Pacific islands also confirms how devastating rats can be. Exactly how rats got on to the island is not known, although one theory is that they arrived as stowaways in the first canoes of Polynesian colonists. Once they arrived, the rats found palm nuts offered an almost unlimited high-quality food supply. Under ideal conditions, rats reproduce so rapidly that their numbers double every 47 days; unchecked, a single mating pair can produce a population of nearly 17 million in just over three years. Research in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands shows that when available food is taken into account, populations can reach 75 to the acre. "At 75 rats per acre, the rat population of Easter Island could have exceeded 3.1 million," says the report. The Hawaiian research demonstrates that rats were capable, on their own, of deforesting large lowland coastal areas in about 200 years or less. "In the absence of effective predators, rats alone could eventually result in deforestation." Dr Hunt says the environmental catastrophe of Easter Island has been masked by speculation about the intentions of people cutting down the last tree: "Indeed, the last tree may simply have died. Rats may have simply eaten the last seeds. "The evidence points to a complex historical ecology for the island, one best explained by a synergy of impacts, particularly the devastating effects of introduced rats. This perspective questions the simplistic notion of reckless over-exploitation by prehistoric Polynesians and points to the need for additional research. "I believe that there is substantial evidence that it was rats, more so than humans, that led to deforestation." |

Interesting read. I might have missed something when reading it, but how did those rats get there in the first place? I suppose they were brought to the island by man? |

F A Cup fourth round draw:
Arsenal v Bolton West Ham v Watford Bristol City or Coventry City v Hull City or Middlesbrough Chelsea v Nottingham Forest Chester City or Ipswich Town v Swansea Cardiff City or Tottenham v Southend Utd or Barnsley Barnet or Colchester v Peterborough or Plymouth Argyle Birmingham City or Newcastle United v Reading or Burnley Derby County v Bristol Rovers Sheffield Wednesday or Manchester City v Southampton Crystal Palace v Preston North End Manchester United v Portsmouth Blackpool v Norwich City Queens Park Rangers or Luton Town v Blackburn Rovers Wolverhampton Wanderers or Oldham v WBA Leicester City or Fulham v Stoke City |
^ On the one hand, you know for a fact that the final will between two out of Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea.
On the other it is just about possible that Bolton could eliminate two of those (including Arsenal in this round) and that the winner of Crystal Palace vs Preston North End (ie Preston North End) could - could just - cause one big upset, so that we end with a Bolton Wanderers vs Preston North End final. When the final line-up is known, remember my wisdom, remember my prediction and come back to laugh at me. My team, Manchester City, will probably lose that replay against the Owls on penalties. |

So me and this chick have been chatting and msging and ringing one another for about half a yr now, and we both fancy each other. Problem is we dont live in the same place, she lives 600km from me. Im sure it prob. seems lame that iv developed a crush for someone over the internet, but meh.
Cool thing is, shes not the type of girl to get like this, shes one of those gals that could get a dude any time she wanted to, but hates the metro kinda guys so she doesnt, i wasnt even her type but she somehow grew fond of me. We have met before and hung out for a few hours but that was before we had gotten this far. |

That's cute :) My back hurts, I think one of my vertebrae is out of place or some shit. |
Quote:
heh thanks, she usualy likes guys with big arms, not metro guys, but just guys with some muscle, and well im the complete opposite of that, i weigh as much as a feather. She is very cool, very outgoing and openminded, and very into art and music. She laughs like tommy from rugrats to, ah gee. ahah im so lame lol. But we both find it really frustrating and its kind of upsetting her that we arnt 100% sure what we are feeling for one another and what happens if we meet someone in our home town. We are stuck with what to do. Get someone to crack your back Emma |
Yeah, I need a chiropractor. Maybe when they straighten my back out I'll be a little bit taller.
|
yeh i went to the chiro a few yrs back , i had small scoliosis(sp?) and it was causing me headaches. Im sure if have to go back again some time, like a wise man once said 'i have very bad posture' :P
