Book Biology and Evolution of Crocodylians

Download or read book Biology and Evolution of Crocodylians written by Gordon Grigg and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 830 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology and Evolution of Crocodylians is a comprehensive review of current knowledge about the world's largest and most famous living reptiles. Gordon Grigg's authoritative and accessible text and David Kirshner's stunning interpretive artwork and colour photographs combine expertly in this contemporary celebration of crocodiles, alligators, caimans and gharials. This book showcases the skills and capabilities that allow crocodylians to live how and where they do. It covers the biology and ecology of the extant species, conservation issues, crocodylian–human interaction and the evolutionary history of the group, and includes a vast amount of new information; 25 per cent of 1100 cited publications have appeared since 2007. Richly illustrated with more than 500 colour photographs and black and white illustrations, this book will be a benchmark reference work for crocodylian biologists, herpetologists and vertebrate biologists for years to come.

  • Publisher : Indiana University Press
  • Release : 2022-11-15
  • ISBN : 0253063329
  • Pages : 327 pages

Download or read book The Desert Bones written by Jamale Ijouiher and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential introduction to the age of dinosaurs in Africa. Once Africa was referred to as the ''Lost World of the dinosaur era,'' so poorly known were its ancient flora and fauna. Worse still, many priceless fossil specimens from the Sahara Desert were destroyed during the Second World War. Fortunately, in the twentieth-first century, more researchers are now working in north Africa than ever before and making fascinating discoveries such as the dinosaur Spinosaurus. Based on a decade of study, The Desert Bones brings the world of African dinosaurs fully into the light. Jamale Ijouiher skillfully draws on the latest research and knowledge about paleoecology to paint a compelling and comprehensive portrait of the mid-Cretaceous in North Africa.

Book Rethinking Invasion Ecologies from the Environmental Humanities

Download or read book Rethinking Invasion Ecologies from the Environmental Humanities written by Jodi Frawley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-24 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research from a humanist perspective has much to offer in interrogating the social and cultural ramifications of invasion ecologies. The impossibility of securing national boundaries against accidental transfer and the unpredictable climatic changes of our time have introduced new dimensions and hazards to this old issue. Written by a team of international scholars, this book allows us to rethink the impact on national, regional or local ecologies of the deliberate or accidental introduction of foreign species, plant and animal. Modern environmental approaches that treat nature with naïve realism or mobilize it as a moral absolute, unaware or unwilling to accept that it is informed by specific cultural and temporal values, are doomed to fail. Instead, this book shows that we need to understand the complex interactions of ecologies and societies in the past, present and future over the Anthropocene, in order to address problems of the global environmental crisis. It demonstrates how humanistic methods and disciplines can be used to bring fresh clarity and perspective on this long vexed aspect of environmental thought and practice. Students and researchers in environmental studies, invasion ecology, conservation biology, environmental ethics, environmental history and environmental policy will welcome this major contribution to environmental humanities.

Book Reptile Ecology and Conservation

Download or read book Reptile Ecology and Conservation written by C. Kenneth Dodd Jr. and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical handbook of reptile field ecology and conservation brings together a distinguished, international group of reptile researchers to provide a state-of-the-art review of the many new and exciting techniques used to study reptiles. The authors describe ecological sampling techniques and how they are implemented to monitor the conservation status and population trends of snakes, lizards, tuatara, turtles, and crocodilians throughout the world. Emphasis is placed on the extent of statistical inference and the biases associated with different techniques and analyses. The chapters focus on the application of field research and data analysis for achieving an understanding of reptile life history, population dynamics, movement patterns, thermal ecology, conservation status, and the relationship between reptiles and their environment. The book emphasises the need for thorough planning, and demonstrates how a multi-dimensional approach incorporates information related to morphology, genetics, molecular biology, epidemiology, statistical modelling, animal welfare, and biosecurity. Although accentuating field sampling, sections on experimental applications in laboratories and zoos, thermal ecology, genetics, landscape ecology, disease and biosecurity, and management options are included. Much of this information is scattered in the scientific literature or not readily available, and the intention is to provide an affordable, comprehensive synthesis for use by graduate students, researchers, and practising conservationists worldwide.

Book Wildlife Trade Management Plan   Queensland Crocodile Farming

Download or read book Wildlife Trade Management Plan Queensland Crocodile Farming written by Queensland. Department of Environment and Heritage Protection and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade in wildlife can pose a serious threat to Australia's unique biodiversity and to plants and animals around the world. The Wildlife Trade Management Plan - Queensland Crocodile Farming has been developed to satisfy Queensland, Australian and international requirements concerning trade in crocodiles or crocodile products to ensure the sustained conservation of the species. The primary goal of the management plan is to augment the Queensland Nature Conservation (Estuarine Crocodile) Conservation Plan 2007 and Management Program 2007-2017 by recognising that crocodile farming in Queensland was traditionally a 'closed cycle' captive industry but now incorporates provision for the legitimate use of harvested and ranched crocodiles sourced from the Northern Territory and/or Western Australia as part of the Queensland crocodile farming industry. This will ensure that farming of estuarine crocodiles in Queensland does not negatively impact on the conservation of estuarine crocodiles in the wild. This management plan relates only to the farming of saltwater (Crocodylus porosus) and freshwater (C. johnstoni) crocodiles within Queensland.
