Introducing Myself--Tyler Pounds
The first picture is a picture that I took right before I danced. This is a traditional "Horse Tail Dance" on a Native American Reservation at a Powwow. The second picture is of me right before I gave a presentation at the National Science Foundation (NSF) in Washington D.C. USA. The third picture that I have attached is me enjoying the sunset near the Native American Reservation. It is quite beautiful there (but extremely remote USA).
I am an Ecological Anthropologist & Ethnobiologist. I study how humans from various cultures all around the world affect plant and animal ecosystems and how human use of these ecosystems affects the wildlife populations. This is known by various names such as: Ecosystem Services, Human-Wildlife Interactions, Ecosystem Function. I study all various aspects of the "Human-Wildlife Interface" while dealing with issues associated with Wildlife Conservation, Biodiversity Loss, Global Climate Change, Anthropogenic Factors Affecting Wildlife & Habitat, Anthropocene Epoch Related Issues, Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) Systems of Indigenous People's. I am also a National Science Foundation Summer Scholar. I utilize "Integrated Biological Approaches" from the fields of both Anthropology & Wildlife Biology/Ecology when conducting research for the 21st century. I am also the founder and creator of "Integrated Human-Nature Relations".
