Applications for Advancing Animal Ecology is Winner of the Wildlife Society Publications Book Award by The Wildlife Society. Despite major advances in sampling techniques and analytical methods, many animal ecologists conduct research that is primarily relevant to a specific time and place. They also tend to focus more on the statistical analyses and nuances of modeling than actual study design. Arguing that studies of animal ecology should always begin with a focus on the behaviors and characteristics of individual organisms, this book takes a fresh and critical look at the field. 259 p.
