Description
Wildlife Ecology, Conservation, and Management by John M. Fryxell, Anthony R. E. Sinclair, and Graeme Caughley is a comprehensive textbook that brings together key concepts in wildlife ecology and management. The book provides a solid background in ecological principles and then applies these concepts to develop a deeper understanding of wildlife management and conservation. With a focus on practical application and quantitative skill development, this third edition of the book covers a range of topics, including habitat use and selection, population viability analysis, and the consequences of climate change. The authors also provide worked examples to help readers practice calculations and develop a solid understanding of key statistical procedures and population models. The book includes new chapters on rapidly developing topics in the field, as well as a new online study aid and downloadable computer programs in R and Mathcad, available through a companion website.
