These conditions have forced the evolution of unique movement patterns and ecological strategies. The book follows on our previous book “Movement Ecology of Neotropical Forest Mammals” but focuses on tropical African forests. Movement is an essential process in the life of all organisms. Animals move because they are looking for primary needs such as food, water, cover, mating and to avoid predators. Understanding the causes and consequences of animal movement is not an easy task for behavioural ecologists. Many animals are shy, move in secretive ways and are very sensible to human presence, therefore, studying the movements of mammals in tropical environments presents logistical and methodologicalchallenges. However, researchers have recently started to be solved these challenges and exciting new information is emerging. In this book we are compiling a set of extraordinary studies where resear | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | Movement ecology; forest animal movement; African forest dwelling mammals; animal movement patterns; gro | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-27030-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-27032-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-27030-7 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
