Conservation of wildlife populations : demography, genetics, and management / L. Scott Mills

By: Mills, L. ScottMaterial type: TextTextPublication details: Oxford : Blackwell, 2006 Description: xiv, 407 p. ; 25 cmISBN: 978-1-4051-2146-0Subject(s): Fauna -- Gestión | Fauna -- Protección | Ecología animal | Animales -- PoblacionesSummary: Conservation of Wildlife Populations provides an accessible introduction to the most relevant concepts and principles for solving real-world management problems in wildlife and conservation biology. Bringing together insights from traditionally disparate disciplines, the book shows how population biology addresses important questions involving the harvest, monitoring, and conservation of wildlife populations. The most up-to-date approaches for assessing factors that affect both population growth and interactions with other species are covered in detail, including predation, genetic changes, harvest, introduced species, viability analysis, and habitat loss and fragmentation. Conservation of Wildlife Populations is an essential guide for undergraduates and postgraduate students of wildlife biology, conservation biology, ecology, and environmental studies; and will be invaluable for practising managers requiring an up-to-date assessment of how population biology can be applied to wildlife conservation and management.
