Abstract
|
:
|
"The current literature on resource selection by animals is a maze of methodologies for date collection and interpretation. Field biologists, need a guide through the labyrinth. This book provides such a guide. It gives a clear and consistent framework for the study of how animals select their resources (food and habitat) by taking the reader through different types of study design. It is an invaluable handbook for the field biologist, especially those concerned with the management and conservation of wildlife. The authors have clearly identified the need to pull together the diffuse literature, and biologists will greatly improve their experimental design, methodology and analysis with this book."--Jacket
