Ecology of Sulawesi
Author: Tony WhittenPublisher: Tuttle Publishing
ISBN: 1462905072

Pages : 826
Book Description
The Ecology of Sulawesi is a comprehensive ecological survey of one of Indonesia's least populated and most diverse islands. It is hoped that it will prove useful to resource managers, ecologists, environmental scientists and local government personnel, and be enlightening to Sulawesi's inhabitants and visitors. Sulawesi is one of the least-known islands of Indonesia, and wise environmental management, including the proper assessment of environmental management, including the proper assessment of environmental impacts arising from development projects and other activities, is currently very difficult.

Ecology, Conservation and Management of Wild Pigs and Peccaries
Author: Mario MellettiPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316947173
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 1417
Book Description
Wild pigs inhabit vast areas in Europe, Southern Asia and Africa, and have been introduced in North and South America, while feral pigs are widespread in Australia and New Zealand. Many wild pig species are threatened with extinction, but Eurasian wild boar populations, however, are increasing in many regions. Covering all wild pig and peccary species, the Suidae and Tayassuidae families, this comprehensive review presents new information about the evolution, taxonomy and domestication of wild pigs and peccaries alongside novel case studies on conservation activities and management. One hundred leading experts from twenty five countries synthesise understanding of this group of species; discussing current research, and gaps in the knowledge of researchers, conservation biologists, zoologists, wildlife managers and students. This beautifully illustrated reference includes the long history of interactions between wild pigs and humans, the benefits some species have brought us and their role and impact on natural ecosystems.
Ecology of Java & Bali
Author: Anthony J. WhittenPublisher: Tuttle Publishing
ISBN: 1462905048
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 868
Book Description
The Ecology of Java and Bali is a comprehensive ecological survey of two of the most ecologically diverse islands in the Pacific. It also contains the results of original research, interviews and personal experience. It will be useful to resource managers, ecologists and government planners, as well as to all others interested in the region. Java and Bali are the best known of all the islands in the Indonesian archipelago. Nowhere else in the country are ecological issues of such importance, and nowhere else is there a better chance of the major development problems being solved. This is because Java has the greatest concentration of development projects, the densest population, excellent human resources, and the interest of many of the most powerful decision makers. Bali, meanwhile, has the eyes of the world on it as an important tourist destination enjoyed by both domestic and foreign visitors.

Ecology and Conservation of Lowland Anoa, Bubalus Depressicornis, in Sulawesi, Indonesia
Author: Abdul Haris MustariPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Lowland anoa
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
This thesis describes the ecology of lowland anoa in their natural habitat in wildlife reserves in southeast Sulawesi, including their habitat charcateristics, population density, distribution, and resources use, and some aspects of their behaviour and sociality. Dietary ecology was also studied to investigate the food plants eaten by anoas, the proportions of food plants in their diets, seasonal changes in their diets and the availability of the food plants that were potentially eaten. Diets of Rusa deer and the Sulawesi warty pig were also assessed and similiarity and/or dissimiliarity of the forest ungulates' diets compared.
