Synopsis

For an undergraduate wildlife management course at both the introductory and advanced level; assumes some background knowledge in ecology.

Dedicated solely to the managerial (vs. ecological), aspects of wildlife management this detailed text covers all the basic components of wildlife management―from its history and evolution to conservation ideas, population dynamics, decimating and welfare factors, population models, and an array of important issues at play in the field today. Establishing the framework for effective management, the book is highly adaptable, lending itself easily to all introductory, mid- or advanced-level classes in wildlife management where instructors can customize and/or build upon topics to suit their particular course needs. Clear and straightforward, it is flexible enough to be used alone, as a “foundation” text supplemented by outside sources, for a refresher course, or simply as a reference text for basic principles.

A propos du livre

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Introduction to Wildlife Management is written for beginning and advanced wildlife students, and as a reference for professionals who want to brush up on the basics of their profession.

Unlike other texts that try to cover wildlife ecology and management in their entirety, Krausman assumes students have a background in ecology and focuses on wildlife management. This text is not written to serve as the only source of information for this field of study, but was designed to provide a solid foundation in the basic concepts used to manage wildlife and to provide a solid reference source for additional reading.

Krausman's clean, clear, accessible writing style effectively conveys the core underpins of the profession of wildlife management, while allowing instructors maximum flexibility in teaching the course.
