An unread slightly damaged copy. Published by Cambridge University Press for the Zoological Society of London. "Carnivores are the focus of intense attnetionand resources in conservation biology. It is often argued that because carnevores are at the top of the food chain, if the are protected, then other taxa will also be afforded adequate protection. .In the past ten years, theoretical and empirical studies on carnivores have developed very quickly. This volume reviews and summarises the current state of the field, describes limitations and opportunities for carnivore conservation, and offers a conceptual framework for future research and applied management." A collection of scientific papers which touch uponconservation biology, mammalogy, animal behaviour, ecology and evolution. Chapters include: Part 1, Problems: Carnivore extinctions; Interspecific competition and extinction-prone carnivores; Conservation lessons from contemporary extinctions; Alien carnivores, unwelcome experiments in ecological theory; Carnivore introductions and invasions; Hybridisation and cnservation of carnivores; Demography and consequences of changes in prey availability; Human-carnivore interactions; Control, exploitation and conservation of carnivores. Part 2, Some Approaches and Solutions: Interdisciplinary problem solving, an introduction; Assessment of carnivore reintroductions; Interactions between carnivores and local communities; New methods for obtaining and analysing genetic data from free-ranging carnivores; Applications of genetic concepts and molecular methods; Role of reproductive sciences; Monitoring of terrestrial carnivore populations. Part 3, Prospects For Research And Conservation: Changing landscapes, consequences for carnivores; Behaviour of carnivores in exploited and controlled populations; The role of disease in carnivore ecology and conservation; Geographic priorities for carnivore conservation in Africa; Estimating interpopulation dispersal rates; Setting priorities for carnivore conservation, what makes carnivores different?; Postscript - carnivore conservation, science, compromise and tough choices. .

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Carnivores are the focus of intense attention and resources in conservation biology. It is often argued that, because carnivores are at the top of the food chain, if they are protected, then other taxa will also be afforded adequate protection. Carnivores are also charismatic and compete wit…h humans for dwindling space and environmental resources. In the past 10 years, theoretical and empirical studies on carnivores have developed very quickly. This volume reviews and summarises the current state of the field, describes limitations and opportunities for carnivore conservation, and offers a conceptual framework for future research and applied management. As such it will be of interest to students and researchers of conservation biology, mammalogy, animal behaviour, ecology and evolution. Carnivores, such as tigers, wolves and badgers are charismatic and the focus of much conservation effort. But does this attention benefit or detract from the conservation of other species? Carnivore Conservation is a critical review of the field, exploring the problems, solutions and future for this group of animals.
