John A. Byers, an assistant pro- 
fessor of zoology at the University 
of Idaho, writes that his interest in 
peccaries began in 1976. He had 
been studying play in Siberian ibex 
at the Brookfield Zoo in Chicago. 
The peccary enclosure was near the 
ibex exhibit, he says, and the pec- 
caries caught his eye: “I did some 
reading about them and realized that 
very little was known about their so- 
cial behavior. There were fascinating 
hints in the literature suggesting that 
peccaries were highly social and this 
led me into my fieldwork in Ari- 
zona.” Byers is now beginning a five- 
year project on the relationship be- 
tween variation in behavioral devel- 
opment and subsequent variation in 
reproductive success in pronghorn 
antelopes. The research will be done 
at the National Bison Range in Mon- 
tana. Byers enjoys Eastern European 
novels and beer, and says that he 
is tired of people sending him items 
with pig motifs.
