Sommario/riassunto |
|
Tells the story of the most adaptable and resilient wild feline in the world - Bobcat. This book explains how scientists apply the wildlife research technology to probe this diminutive predator's habits and behavior. It also discusses how economics and politics play a far greater role in bobcat management and conservation than does science. |
