It details their response to land-use change and management practices, intensified urbanization and roost disturbance and loss. Increasing interactions between humans and bats as a result of hunting, disease relationships, occupation of human dwellings, and conflict over fruit crops are explored in depth. Finally, contributors highlight the roles that taxonomy, conservation networks and conservation psychology have to play in conserving this imperilled but vital taxon. With over 1300 species, bats are the second largest order of mammals, yet as the Anthropocene dawns, bat populations around the world are in decline. Greater understanding of the anthropogenic drivers of this decline and exploration of possible mitigation measures are urgently needed if we are to retain global bat diversity in the coming decades. This book brings together teams of international experts to provide a global review of currentunderstanding and recommend directions for future research and mitigation. . 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology 606 $aVertebrates 606 $aAnimal migration 606 $aClimatology 606 $aConservation Biology 606 $aVertebrate Zoology 606 $aAnimal Migration 606 $aClimate Sciences 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aVertebrates. 615 0$aAnimal migration. 615 0$aClimatology. 615 14$aConservation Biology. 615 24$aVertebrate Zoology. 615 24$aAnimal Migration. 615 24$aClimate Sciences. 676 $a639.9794 686 $aNAT011000$aSCI020000$aSCI070030$aSCI092000$2bisacsh 700 $aVoigt$b Christian C$4edt$01338926 702 $aVoigt$b Christian C.$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKingston$b Tigga$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910134780403321 996 $aBats in the Anthropocene: Conservation of Bats in a Changing World$93360012 997 $aUNINA
