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 current understanding and recommend directions for future research and mitigation. . 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology  606 $aVertebrates 606 $aAnimal ecology 606 $aClimate change 606 $aConservation Biology/Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19150 606 $aVertebrates$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25074 606 $aAnimal Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19015 606 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000 610 $aConservation Biology/Ecology 610 $aVertebrates 610 $aAnimal Ecology 610 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology . 615 0$aVertebrates. 615 0$aAnimal ecology. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 14$aConservation Biology/Ecology. 615 24$aVertebrates. 615 24$aAnimal Ecology. 615 24$aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts. 676 $a639.9794 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
