Wildlife Science cover

Despite the potential synergy that can result from basing management applications on results from research, there is a polarization of cultures between wildlife managers and wildlife researchers. Wildlife Science: Connecting Research with Management provides strategies for bridging cultural and communication gaps between these groups. The text covers the history of the longstanding disconnect, research and management entities, species case studies, management and policy case studies, and conclusions and future directions. The authors present case studies of both successful and failed interactions, providing a platform for discussion of the underlying issues. They examine current issues in wildlife science and management to explore real-world implications resulting from the research and management disconnect.

"... this book offers today's wildlife professional, or anyone else who cares for and manages wildlife resources, inspiration and frameworks for success in wildlife science and management. ... This book provides many templates that can be referred to for achieving successful, collaborative wildlife research and management in the future. A great collection that is worthy of appreciation, Sands et al. have completed a ton of work for our collective benefit." -Mark C. Romanski, Isle Royale National Park, Houghton, Michigan, The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2013
