Description

"This book, the second in Chapman & Hall's Wildlife Ecology and Behaviour Series, focuses on studies of both European and Siberian roe deer to provide an authoritative insight into their taxonomy, ecology, feeding patterns, social behaviour and population dynamics. It uses this information to tackle the fascinating question of what environmental factors underly ranging patterns and trigger migratory behaviour in some populations but not in others, adding new perspectives and depths to our understanding of general issues in behavioural ecology."--BOOK JACKET. "This book is an important addition to the literature on ungulate ecology, offering for the first time in the English language, a distillation of the knowledge and understanding gathered in over twenty years' ground breaking research by Aleksey Danilkin and other Russian and Eastern European researchers on European and Siberian roe deer. Mark Hewison's extensive experience with European roe deer in France and Great Britain ensures the work presents a definitive and integrated analysis of the current state of knowledge on roe deer worldwide."--BOOK JACKET. "Students and researchers in zoology, conservation, ecology and wildlife management as well as many naturalists will welcome this stimulating synthesis."--BOOK JACKET.
