As a nocturnal forager the bilby takes refuge in burrows during the day to escape high daytime temperatures (Robinson & Morrison). The bilby has been found to be highly intolerant to heat and becomes dangerously heat stressed at temperatures over 30°C (Robinson & Morrison 1957; Morrison 1962). This could potentially signal an issue for the bilby with climate change as while most of us have noticed an increase in daytime temperatures, there has actually been a larger increase in night-time temperatures

Introduction Dust storms in Arizona are a dramatic example of how changes in land use, combined with climatological factors, can have a negative influence on human health. For decades, the state has experienced dust storms that have led to serious traffic accidents on Arizona’s highways (Brazel and Hsu 1981). The dust storm related accidents represented a disproportionate amount of fatalities (Hyers and Marcus 1981). However, dust can have negative effects on human health in a less dramatic fashion

that the term ‘Obeah’ only appears in English-speaking America, but minimally in the British North American colonies and almost entirely in the Caribbean, suggests that the term’s earliest use in the New World was in the British Caribbean (Bilby, 2001).

The aims of the Criminal Justice system include maintaining public order and public protection through incapacitation (University of Portsmouth, 2013) whilst also rehabilitating offenders towards crime free lives after prison (Parkes & Bilby, 2010).

The cognitive-behavioural techniques used in many prisons have been
