Urban Wildlife Management

Urban Wildlife Management

Winner of the 2018 TWS Wildlife Publication Awards in the authored book categoryUrban development is one of the leading worldwide threats to conserving biodiversity. In the near future wildlife management in urban landscapes will be a prominent issue for wildlife professionals. This new edition of Urban Wildlife Management continues the work of its predecessors by providing a comprehensive examination of the issues that increase the need for urban wildlife management exploring the changing dynamics of the field while giving historical perspectives and looking at current trends and future directions. The book examines a range of topics on human interactions with wildlife in urbanized environments. It focuses not only on ecological matters but also on political economic and societal issues that must be addressed for successful management planning. This edition features an entirely new section on urban wildlife species including chapters on urban communities herpetofauna birds ungulates mammals carnivores and feral and introduced species. The third edition featuresFive new chapters12 updated chaptersFour new case studiesSeven new appendices and species profiles90 new figuresA comprehensive analysis of terrestrial vertebrate locations by state and urban observationsEach chapter opens with a set of key concepts which are then examined in the following discussions. Suggested learning experiences to enhance knowledge conclude each chapter. The species profiles cover not only data about the animal concerned but also detail significant current management issues related to the species. An updated and expanded teaching tool Urban Wildlife Management Third Edition identifies the challenges and opportunities facing wildlife in urban communities as well as factors that promote or threaten their presence. It gives both students and professionals a solid grounding in the required fundamental ecological principles for understanding the effects of human-made environments on wildlife.

Human-Wildlife Interactions From Conflict to Coexistence

Human-Wildlife Interactions From Conflict to Coexistence

This book won the 2023 The Wildlife Society Publication Award in the authored book category. Human-wildlife interactions increase exponentially as more and more humans and wildlife crowd into the same limited space. Such interactions often become conflicts when wildlife threaten human health and safety well-being or the food supply. This second edition of Human-Wildlife Interactions: From Conflict to Coexistence provides a comprehensive review of the severity of these problems and the methods used to resolve clashes between humans and wildlife. During his forty-year career as a wildlife professor and scientist Dr. Michael Conover founder of journal Human-Wildlife Interactions has become a recognized leader of the scientific field of human-wildlife interactions. In this book he presents the range of methods for wildlife damage management including employing lethal methods; distributing supplemental food; changing the behavior of either humans or wildlife; and excluding or repelling wildlife. Backed by numerous case studies and informative side bars the book documents resolutions to specific human-wildlife conflicts throughout the literature. Containing full color illustrations throughout the second edition of Human-Wildlife Interactions: From Conflict to Coexistence provides authoritative coverage and depth of both theoretical and practical information. It serves as an invaluable resource for students researchers and professional wildlife managers. Disclaimer: Figure 7. 7 (b) on page 251 was incorrectly attributed in previous printings.

Women and Wildlife Trafficking Participants Perpetrators and Victims

Women and Wildlife Trafficking Participants Perpetrators and Victims

This volume examines women and wildlife trafficking via a collection of narratives case studies and theoretical syntheses from diverse voices and disciplines. Wildlife trafficking has been documented in over 120 countries around the world. While species extinction and animal abuse are major problems wildlife trafficking is also associated with corruption national insecurity spread of zoonotic disease undercutting sustainable development investments and erosion of cultural resources among others. The role of women in wildlife trafficking has remained woefully under-addressed with scientists and policymakers failing to consider the important causes and consequences of the gendered dimensions of wildlife trafficking. Although the roles of women in wildlife trafficking are mostly unknown they are not unknowable. This volume helps fill a lacuna by examining the roles and experiences of women with case studies drawn from across the world including Mexico Cameroon the Central African Republic South Africa and Norway. Women can be wildlife trafficking preventors perpetrators and pawns; their roles in facilitating wildlife trafficking are considered from both a supply and a demand viewpoint. The first half of the book assesses the range of science offering four different perspectives on how women and wildlife trafficking can be studied or evaluated. The second half of the book profiles diverse case studies from around the world offering context-specific insight about on-the-ground activities associated with women and wildlife trafficking. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of wildlife crime environmental law human geography conservation gender studies and green criminology. It will also be of interest to NGOs and policymakers working to improve efficacy of efforts targeting wildlife crime the illegal wildlife trade and conservation more broadly. | Women and Wildlife Trafficking Participants Perpetrators and Victims

Wildlife Science Linking Ecological Theory and Management Applications

Wildlife Science Linking Ecological Theory and Management Applications

Consciously or not wildlife managers generally act from a theoretical basis although they may not be fully versed in the details or ramifications of that theory. In practice the predictions of the practitioners sometimes prove more accurate than those of the theoreticians. Practitioners and theoreticians need to work together but this proves difficult when new management ideas and cutting-edge ecological theory are often published in separate scientific outlets with distinctly different readerships. A compilation of the scientific papers presented at the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute's 25th Anniversary Conference of April 2006 Wildlife Science: Linking Ecological Theory and Management Applications brings together these two often separate approaches to elucidate the theoretical underpinnings of wildlife management and to apply evolving ecological concepts to changes and adaptations in management practices. Gathering many of the best and greatest minds in wildlife science this volume addresses the critically important theme of linking ecological theory and management applications. Divided into five parts the first two parts deal with the landscape ecology of birds and mammals respectively demonstrating the need for applied theory in gamebird management and the preservation of the cougar. Part three highlights the role of climate when applying ecological theory to habitat management and discusses the emergence of ecosystem management in managing wildlife at the ecosystem scale. Part four considers the management of wildlife disease and reveals the increasing importance of genetics in conservation and ecology. Finally the economic and social issues affecting wildlife science round out the coverage in part five. Applying emerging ecological theory for the advancement of wildlife management Wildlife Science: Linking Ecological Theory and Management Applications provides a long awaited cooperative look at the future of ecosystem manage | Wildlife Science Linking Ecological Theory and Management Applications
