Wildlife Ecology and Management
Sixth Edition
For over 40 years, Bolen and Robinson’s exceptional text, Wildlife Ecology and Management, has been a noteworthy and comprehensive introduction to the art, science, and practices of wildlife management in the United States. Now, in its Sixth Edition, new contributing author Christopher Comer continues their legacy, accentuating the integration of ecology and wildlife management with new developments in the issues and challenges wildlife managers face every day.
As awareness continues to grow of the complexities generated by the interactions of wildlife and society, the authors discuss these concerns with nongame and endangered wildlife, exotic species, wildlife diseases, conservation biology, and urban wildlife. Technology has fundamentally changed how wildlife managers learn about and manage wildlife; effective and informative advances include spatial analysis, molecular techniques, and methods to detect different species. A seminal text, Wildlife Ecology and Management continues to provide valuable insight into a dynamic and multifaceted field.
