Rescue effect is the process by which a wildlife species may move through its range in a way that it mitigates a Canadian extirpation or population decline. For wildlife species whose distributions cross an international boundary of Canada or are otherwise shared with another country give the likelihood that dispersal from the foreign population will repopulate the Canadian population should the latter disappear or experience a decline. 2, record 2, English, - rescue%20effect

Une immigration de source externe est un processus par lequel une espèce sauvage peut se déplacer dans son aire de répartition, de telle sorte que la diminution d'une population ou la possibilité que l'espèce disparaisse au Canada soient atténuées. Dans le cas des espèces sauvages dont l'aire de répartition d'une espèce s'étend de part et d'autre d'une frontière internationale du Canada ou d'une frontière que le Canada partage avec un autre pays, donnez la probabilité que la dispersion de la population étrangère repeuple la population canadienne si celle-ci venait à disparaître ou à connaître un déclin. 1, record 2, French, - immigration%20de%20source%20externe

A Möbius strip has a boundary which is a simple closed curve. It can be deformed into a circle, although in the process the strip must be allowed to intersect itself... The surface which results is a nonorientable surface called a cross-cap. It can be described as a hemisphere which has been pinched together along a short vertical line starting at the pole; the surface then appears to intersect along this line and the line is to be regarded as two lines, each belonging to one of the two parts of the surface which cross along the line. 3, record 3, English, - cross%2Dcap

Radio Fence is an underground electrical barrier which works with a receiver on your dog's collar. It beeps your dog when he nears the boundary and gives him a small electrical correction if he tries to cross it. It keeps your dog safe... Radio Fence acts as a hidden barrier that gives your dog access to the whole yard but inhibits his movements into unwanted areas.... A crystal-tuned transmitter plugs into a standard outlet and emits a radio signal that travels along an underground wire [which is] buried an inch or two [below the surface. ] The four-ounce receiver, worn on your pet's existing collar, picks up the radio signal and alerts him as he nears the hidden boundary that you have customized for your yard. If he crosses the boundary, he will receive a small electrical correction. 1, record 5, English, - radio%20fence

La clôture futée «ANTI-FUGUE» est un système de clôture radio, donc invisible, qui permet de maintenir l'animal dans une limite que le maître a établie. [...] Un émetteur envoie un signal radio basse fréquence le long d'un fil qui sert d'antenne. Ce fil enterré juste sous la surface du sol (3 cm) ou posé sur une clôture existante détermine le périmètre dans lequel on souhaite limiter l'animal. Un bouton sur l'émetteur permet de régler la zone de correction de 1 à 10 m de part et d'autre du fil. Des fanions permettent de visualiser le périmètre choisi pendant l'apprentissage. Lorsque l'animal muni d'un collier récepteur s'approche de la limite fixée, il perçoit un signal d'avertissement sonore. S'il s'avance plus, il reçoit une correction similaire à une décharge d'électricité statique. Bien qu'inoffensive, cette correction le dissuade d'aller plus loin. 1, record 5, French, - cl%C3%B4ture%20radio
