Conservation of Exploited Species
Editorial Reviews
Review
'... this important volume will suggest where conservation needs to go from here.' Ian Powell, Biologist
'... a very useful text which is well-written and stimulating.' British Ecological Society's Teaching Ecology Group Newsletter
'... anyone concerned with applied ecology and conservation will find this book of interest ... should find a home on the shelf of any conservation biologist, and brings together valuable insights and fascinating case studies that will be useful in university courses on ecology, conservation and population dynamics.' Tony J. Pitcher, Environmental Conservation
Book Description
This book brings together international experts to examine interactions between the biology of wildlife and the divergent goals of people involved in hunting, fishing, gathering, and culling wildlife. Reviews of theory show how sustainable exploitation is tied to the study of population dynamics, with direct links to reproductive rates, life histories, behavior, and ecology. As such theory is rarely put into practice to achieve sustainable use and effective conservation, Conservation of Exploited Species explores the many reasons for this failure and considers remedies to tackle them.
