Revitalization of weir on Svratka river inVranovice with fish crossing
Jágr, Josef ; Veselý, David (referee) ; Milerski, Rudolf (advisor)
This present work deals with the design of revitalization measures for the weir in Uherčice (Vranovice) on the river Svratka. The current condition of weir constuction does not allow aquatic animals to migrate, weir constuction is transverse barrier. In this river section are found many fish species like barbel, vimba, nase and chub, for which is migration completely natural part of their behavior. There is concrete weir with a movable flap and on the right bank is located a small hydroelectric power plant. Close to hydroelectric power plant outlet is mouth of Šatava river. Weir revitalization consists of fish pass construction. Proposed fish pass is located on the right bank of the stream. There is a close-to-nature bypass channel that will ensure a continuity of water flow of already mentioned river Svratka between Věstonice lake and Rajhrad weir. Entrance to the fish pass will use a part of Šatava mount, then will continue in the artificial channel to the upstream part of Svratka river. Fish pass exit cannot breake the function of protective anti-flood embankment of Svratka river, hence there will be used block off construction. During condition of flooding will exist the possibility to shut down proposed fish pass.

The donkey - a livestock or a pet? (Breeding and use of donkeys in Polabí lowland - a case study)
Diblíčková, Eliška ; Bartoš, Michael (advisor) ; Veverková, Zuzana (referee)
Donkeys have been useful helpers to people especially at transporting burdens and in agriculture for thousands of years. Nowadays they make livelihoods of rural as well as urban inhabitants over all continents easier. The use of donkeys in agriculture and transport is vanishing in developing countries due to the mechanization. We know only little about how and why people keep breeding of donkeys in developing countries. Theoretical part of the thesis tries to summarize previous basic knowledge about breeding and using donkeys. It focuses on domestication of donkeys, their use in history in different parts of the world, current position of donkeys and partly on relations between men and animals from the view of Human-Animal Studies. A research in a part of Polabí lowland is added. The main practical aim of the thesis is to take a look at the phenomenon of breeding donkeys in the Czech Republic in the present and bring any findings about why do people breed donkeys in modern times in this developing country. Research finds how are donkeys bred, what reasons lead breeders to get donkeys and what their real use is. The thesis contributes to popularization of this theme among experts and laymen and suggests methodology for research of breeding donkeys in other areas as well.
