AbstractThe decline of the mongoose lemur Eulemur mongoz has resulted in a change of its conservation status from Vulnerable to Critically Endangered. Assessing the current threats to the species and the attitudes of the people coexisting with it is fundamental to understanding whether and how human impacts may affect populations. A questionnaire-based analysis was used to study the impact of agriculture and other subsistence activities, and local educational initiatives, on lemur abundance, group size and composition in the Comoros. On the islands of Mohéli and Anjouan we recorded 214 lemurs in 63 groups, the size and composition of which depended both on environmental parameters and the magnitude and type of anthropogenic pressure. There was no evidence of an impact of anthropogenic disturbance on abundance. In contrast, group size and composition were sensitive to human impacts. The most important threats were conflicts related to crop raiding, as well as illegal capture and hunting. The promotion of educational activities reduced the negative impact of hunting and illegal activities. These results highlight a need for urgent conservation measures to protect the species.

Television audiences have been shown to be a mixture of lone individuals and groups of viewers, with groups contributing at least 50% of total ratings. Viewing with others also makes the experience more enjoyable and has important effects on cognitive processing of programs and advertisements. A major problem for researchers and managers is that groups of viewers are dynamic entities difficult to define or measure. This study frames groups of television viewers as fuzzy sets and presents fuzzy measures of group size and composition. The effects of these characteristics on individual consumption of television are assessed using statistical models, which incorporate the arithmetic forms of the proposed measures.
