In tales of adventure, research, and conservation, veteran field researchers and conservationists describe exciting discoveries made over the past few decades about chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas. The book features vivid descriptions of interactions among these highly intelligent creatures as they hunt, socialize, and play. More difficult themes emerge as well, including the threats apes face from poaching, disease, and deforestation. In stories that are often moving and highly personal, this book takes measure of how special the great apes are and discusses positive conservation efforts, including ecotourism, that can help bring these magnificent animals back from the brink of extinction. 606 $aApes$zAfrica$vAnecdotes 606 $aApes$zAfrica$vPictorial works 606 $aApes$xResearch$zAfrica$vAnecdotes 606 $aApes$xConservation 606 $aRare mammals$zAfrica 610 $aafrica. 610 $aafrican animals. 610 $aafrican apes. 610 $aanimal behavior. 610 $aapes. 610 $abonobos. 610 $abwindi impenetrable national park. 610 $acentral africa. 610 $achimpanzees. 610 $aconservation. 610 $acote divoire. 610 $adeforestation. 610 $adisease. 610 $aecotourism. 610 $aendangered animals. 610 $aenvironment. 610 $aenvironmentalism. 610 $aextinction. 610 $afield research. 610 $aforests. 610 $agabon. 610 $agorillas. 610 $agreat apes. 610 $aivindo national park. 610 $ajungles. 610 $alife sciences. 610 $anature photography. 610 $anature preserve. 610 $anature reserve. 610 $anature. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apoaching. 610 $aprimates. 610 $aprimatology. 610 $ascience. 610 $atai national park. 610 $auganda. 610 $awild apes. 610 $awildlife. 610 $azoology. 615 0$aApes 615 0$aApes 615 0$aApes$xResearch 615 0$aApes$xConservation. 615 0$aRare mammals 676 $a599.88096 701 $aRobbins$b Martha M.$f1967-$01496748 701 $aBoesch$b Christophe$01496749 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781375603321 996 $aAmong African apes$93721579 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03332nam 2201033z- 450 001 9910580215103321 005 20220706 035 $a(CKB)5690000000011936 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/87416 035 $a(oapen)doab87416 035 $a(EXLCZ)995690000000011936 100 $a20202207d2022 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aBoreal Bird Ecology, Management and Conservation 210 $aBasel$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2022 215 $a1 online resource (158 p.) 311 08$a3-0365-2014-7 311 08$a3-0365-2015-5 330 $aNorthern forested landscapes are important habitats for many boreal birds. This Special Issue portrays the current state of knowledge on boreal bird diversity, ecology, management, and conservation. Humans have diverse impacts on boreal habitats worldwide, and knowledge of the avian community associated with these northern forests is key to conservation measures. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aGenetics (non-medical)$2bicssc 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $aaquatic macroinvertebrates 610 $abird distribution and abundance 610 $aBlack Belt Prairie 610 $aboreal 610 $aboreal birds 610 $aboreal forest 610 $aboreal wetlands 610 $abuffering 610 $aCanada Warbler 610 $aCardellina canadensis 610 $acitizen science 610 $aclear-cutting 610 $aclimate change 610 $acommunity dynamics 610 $aconservation 610 $aEuphagus carolinus 610 $aforaging ecology 610 $aforest bird 610 $aforest management 610 $agenetic diversity 610 $aglacial refugia 610 $agroup size 610 $ahabitat use 610 $amachine learning 610 $amacroclimate 610 $an/a 610 $anest success 610 $aniche modeling 610 $aoccupancy modeling 610 $aold-growth forest 610 $aphylogeography 610 $aPicoides dorsalis 610 $apoint count 610 $apopulation decline 610 $apost-fledging 610 $aprotected areas 610 $arange periphery 610 $arange shift 610 $ared squirrel 610 $aremotely sensed landscape data 610 $areserve design 610 $arusty blackbird 610 $aRusty Blackbird 610 $aspecies distribution models 610 $aspruce-fir forests 610 $astreams 610 $asurvivorship 610 $atopographic heterogeneity 610 $aunmarked 610 $awetland 610 $awetlands 610 $aZonation 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aGenetics (non-medical) 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aMcNulty$b Stacy A$4edt$01297588 702 $aGlennon$b Michale$4edt 702 $aMcNulty$b Stacy A$4oth 702 $aGlennon$b Michale$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910580215103321 996 $aBoreal Bird Ecology, Management and Conservation$93024581 997 $aUNINA
