Through a synthesis of the underlying biology and a comparison of the management techniques adopted in different countries, the book explores which management approaches seem effective - and in which circumstances. Experts in a number of different areas of applied wildlife biology review various management problems and alternative solutions, including the impact of large ungulates on agriculture, forestry and conservation habitats, the impact of disease and predation on ungulate populations and the involvement of ungulates in road traffic accidents and possible measures for mitigation. This book is directed at practising wildlife managers, those involved in research to improve methods of wildlife management, and policy-makers in local, regional and national administrations Ungulate management in Europe: problems and practices [livre] / Rory Putman, Éditeur scientifique ; Marco Apollonio, Éditeur scientifique ; Reidar Andersen, Éditeur scientifique . - Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press, 2011 . - 398 p.

Animal behavior and wildlife conservation / M. Festa-Bianchet (2003)  

Public ISBD Titre : Animal behavior and wildlife conservation Type de document : livre Auteurs : M. Festa-Bianchet, Éditeur scientifique ; Marco Apollonio, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Washington, D.C. : Island Press Année de publication : 2003 Importance : 380 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-55963-959-0 Note générale : ISBN-10 : 1-55963-959-8 Pbk Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal behaviour  Wildlife conservation Résumé : Efforts to conserve wildlife populations and preserve biological diversity are often hampered by an inadequate understanding of animal behavior. How do animals react to gaps in forested lands, or to sport hunters? Do individual differences-in age, sex, size, past experience-affect how an animal reacts to a given situation? Differences in individual behavior may determine the success or failure of a conservation initiative, yet they are rarely considered when strategies and policies are developed. Animal Behavior and Wildlife Conservation explores how knowledge of animal behavior may help increase the effectiveness of conservation programs. The book brings together conservation biologists, wildlife managers, and academics from around the world to examine the importance of general principles, the role played by specific characteristics of different species, and the importance of considering the behavior of individuals and the strategies they adopt to maximize fitness. Each chapter begins by looking at the theoretical foundations of a topic, and follows with an exploration of its practical implications. A concluding chapter considers possible future contributions of research in animal behavior to wildlife conservation.
