Behaviour and conservation

"Behaviour and Conservation links the advances that have been made in behavioural ecology over the last 30 years with the new discipline of conservation biology. The book addresses the ways in which behaviour and conservation interact, investigating the conservation impact of people, habitat loss and fragmentation, threats to wild populations of animals, conservation priorities and the use of behavioural approaches for conservation application. Leading authorities in animal behaviour outline the relevance of their work to key problems in animal conservation for all researchers and students in the behavioural sciences and conservation biology."--Jacket.
