Publisher's Notes
Population Ecology of Raptors provides a synthesis of recently discovered facts concerning the population regulation in raptors. The author details their social behavior, their dispersion, numbers, movements, breeding, and mortality. He also deals with the effects of pesticides and other pollutants on raptors. Including all relevant material and information from around the world, this book provides a sound basis for further research and more effective conservation. It will be of value not only to the professional research worker, but also to anyone else with a general interest in these birds.
