Description
Analysis and Management of Animal Populations deals with the processes involved in making informed decisions about the
management of animal populations. It covers the modeling of population responses to management actions, the estimation of quantities
needed in the modeling effort, and the application of these estimates and models to the development of sound management decisions. The
book synthesizes and integrates in a single volume the methods associated with these themes, as they apply to ecological assessment and
conservation of animal populations.
Audience:
Faculty, researchers, graduate students and advanced undergraduates in animal ecology, biometrics, quantitative ecology, conservation
biology, fish and wildlife biology, wildlife policy, natural resource sciences, and land management.
