- catalog abstract "Historically mankind has exploited mammalian populations in their wild and domesticated forms. Today as increasing human populations demand more space and resources, the exploitation of mammals for commercial gain, subsistence, conservation and control is stimulating necessary debate on the morality, sustainability and welfare implications of a continuing exploitative relationship. The Exploitation of Mammal Populations presents a selection of peer-reviewed and edited papers from a conference jointly organized by the Universities' Federation for Animal Welfare (UFAW) and the Mammal Society which includes contributions from an international array of wildlife biologists, ecologists and conservationists. In 22 chapters the issues involved in harvesting, hunting, sustainable trade and ecotourism are explored and set in the context of past and present mammal exploitation. The resulting volume provides a stimulating and wide-ranging review of current attitudes to mammal exploitation which will be of interest to zoologists, ecologists, animal behaviourists, wildlife managers, conservation biologists and campaigners.".
