Applied Wildlife Habitat Management

Applied Wildlife Habitat Management is an introductory textbook presenting principle management concepts and techniques. It supplies undergraduates and practitioners with the basic tools to understand, plan, implement, measure, analyze, and document their efforts to enhance habitat for wildlife on both private and public lands.

Providing a step-by-step guide that is adaptable to a range of environmental settings, the authors first lay out the ecological principles applicable to any project. They then take the reader through the various sampling designs, measurement techniques, and basic analytical methods required to develop and complete a habitat project, including the creation of a report or management plan.

This practical guide will be a valuable resource for professional biologists at the state and federal level, students and professors of conservation biology as well as natural resource agencies, NGOs, and private landowners.
