Book Description
This book provides a clear and accessible account of kangaroos, showing how their reproductive patterns, social structure and other aspects of their biology make them well adapted to Australia’s harsh climate and demanding environment. Since the last edition of this book nearly 20 years ago, much more is now known about the biology and ecology of these iconic animals. This completely revised edition describes these new perspectives and attempts to counter the many urban and rural myths that still exist.

Book Description
This book examines the ecology and management of kangaroos and shows how they interact with their own environment and with that shaped by sheep grazing and the wool industry. It presents the results of intensive and detailed studies of feeding behaviour, movement and habitat utilisation, body condition and population dynamics, weather and plant growth.

Book Description
Mary, on her voyage to Australia in 1842, solves a complex murder on board ship. She does this with support from her best friend Younee who just happens to be a fl eet footed gremlin who communicates with Mary, telepathically. Their son Stanley, a gremlin, is born on the ship. Well not really her son genetically but adoption is a wonderful thing. (Book 1)Th e ship's captain lauds her abilities to the constabulary in Sydney who now regularly ask her to solve murders the constabulary are unable to, or in some cases unwilling to solve. Audrey seeks Mary's expert skills to solve her father's murder. Th eir journey has them fi nding three killers paid to extract information about a gold find thus sending them to the goldfields to solve his murder. In their quest they are supported by Annie, a witch, though she says she doesn't talk to ghosts they talk to her. (Apparently in Annie's mind there is a diff erence.) On the way to fi nd the gold they gather an entourage of killers, would be killers and men desperate to find gold to make their own troubles go away. As it must never be divulged that gremlins exist, Younee and Stanley fi nd remarkable ways to avoid their own detection whilst keeping Mary and Audrey safe.

Book Description
To understand modern principles of sustainable management and the conservation of wildlife species requires intimate knowledge about demography, animal behavior, and ecosystem dynamics. With emphasis on practical application and quantitative skill development, this book weaves together these disparate elements in a single coherent textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students. It reviews analytical techniques, explaining the mathematical and statistical principles behind them, and shows how these can be used to formulate realistic objectives within an ecological framework. This third edition is comprehensive and up-to-date, and includes: Brand new chapters that disseminate rapidly developing topics in the field: habitat use and selection; habitat fragmentation, movement, and corridors; population viability. analysis, the consequences of climate change; and evolutionary responses to disturbance A thorough updating of all chapters to present important areas of wildlife research and management with recent developments and examples. A new online study aid ? a wide variety of downloadable computer programs in the freeware packages R and Mathcad, available through a companion website. Worked examples enable readers to practice calculations explained in the text and to develop a solid understanding of key statistical procedures and population models commonly used in wildlife ecology and management. The first half of the book provides a solid background in key ecological concepts. The second half uses these concepts to develop a deeper understanding of the principles underlying wildlife management and conservation. Global examples of real-life management situations provide a broad perspective on the international problems of conservation, and detailed case histories demonstrate concepts and quantitative analyses. This third edition is also valuable to professional wildlife managers, park rangers, biological resource managers, and those working in ecotourism.
