Quantifying Diets of Wildlife and Fish: Practical and Applied Methods
Michael C Calver, Neil R Loneragan
Quantifying Diets of Wildlife and Fish presents different techniques available to study animal diets. Ecologists determine animal diets to build natural history knowledge, test hypotheses in ecological theory and make informed management decisions for important ecosystems. Many researchers use techniques traditionally applied to the animals they study, rather than techniques with the greatest potential for the aims of each project. In an effort to encourage researchers to consider new approaches, this book focuses on the techniques, rather than on particular groups of organisms or specific environments.
Explores traditional approaches to studying animal diets as well as newer methods such as chemical tracers and eDNA techniques.
