The #1 selling wildlife management book for 40 years, now updated for the next generation of professionals and students. Since its original publication in 1960, The Wildlife Techniques Manual has remained the cornerstone text for the professional wildlife biologist. Now fully revised and updated, this eighth edition promises to be the most comprehensive resource on wildlife biology, conservation, and management for years to come. Superbly edited by Nova J. Silvy and published in association with The Wildlife Society, the 50 authoritative chapters included in this work provide a full synthesis of methods used in the field and laboratory. Chapter authors, all leading wildlife professionals, ex...
The latest edition of this classic guide details how to understand and resolve a broad array of human-wildlife conflicts. This new edition of Human-Wildlife Conflict Management updates our understanding of the human dimensions, as well as biological and ecological concepts, underlying human-wildlife conflicts. While it provides wildlife professionals and students with the knowledge and adaptive management strategies to resolve such conflicts, it uniquely explores negative interactions with a wide range of wildlife taxa beyond those typically covered in traditional wildlife damage management, including invasive plants, invertebrates, and fish. Designed to help students and natural resource pr...
Mexico is the fourteenth largest country in the world and ranks fifth in biodiversity. Located in the transition zone between the temperate and tropical regions of North and South America, Mexico is an important migratory corridor for wildlife and also provides wintering habitat for several species of bats, monarch butterflies, and temperate North American nesting birds. Mexico faces several challenges to wildlife management and conservation efforts. While there is increased public education and acknowledgment of the valuable benefits wildlife provides, there is still much work to do to incentivize conservation efforts. Fortunately, there is growing recognition that Mexico’s wildlife resou...
Clan MacCubbin (and variant spellings) and their allied families came mainly from Ireland and Scotland, especially in Ayrshire. The MacCubbin and MacAdam Clans were joined when Robert Caldwell McCubbin (1845-1925) married Marion Clement McAdam (1845-1908) in Scotland in 1864. They came to America in 1870. Some of their allied families also came from England, Germany, Ireland, Scotland, and Sweden. Early ancestors settled in Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and New York in the 1600-1700's. During the 1800's, some lived in Nova Scotia (Canada), and in Arkansas, Illinois, Missouri, Ohio, Vermont, and Wisconsin. Some returned to live in Scotland. Others migrated into the West Indies, and to Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and elsewhere.
Environmental Chemistry in the Lab presents a comprehensive approach to modern environmental chemistry laboratory instruction, together with a complete experimental experience. The laboratory experiments have an introduction for the students to read, a pre-lab for them to complete before coming to the lab, a data sheet to complete during the lab, and a post-lab which would give them an opportunity to reinforce their understanding of the experiment completed. Instructor resources include a list of all equipment and supplies needed for 24 students, a lab preparation guide, an answer key to all pre-lab and post-lab questions, sample data for remote learners, and a suggested rubric for grading the labs. Additional features include: • Tested laboratory exercises with instructor resources for environmental science students • Environmental calculations, industrial regulation, and environmental stewardship • Classroom and remote exercises • An excellent, user-friendly, and thought-provoking presentation which will appeal to students with little or no science background • A qualitative approach to the chemistry behind many of our environmental issues today
