A Primer of Conservation Behavior

Conservation behaviour is the application of knowledge of animal behaviour to solve wildlife conservation problems. The goal of this Primer is to nurture the development of biologists interested in using animal behaviour to aid in solving biological conservation and wildlife management problems. This is the only practical guide fostering integration and showing how to apply animal behaviour based conceptual and methodological tools to issues that would benefit from this perspective.   This book is broadly aimed at biologists interested in or practicing conservation biology and wildlife management, including undergraduate and graduate students, conservation biologists, ecologists, wildlife managers, zoo personnel, animal behaviourists, and behavioural ecologists.
