Paradoxically, though, many species of wildlife thrive in these built environments. Interactions between humans and wildlife are more frequent in urban areas than any other place on earth and these interactions impact human health, safety and welfare in both positive and negative ways. Although urban wildlife control pest species, pollinate plants and are fun to watch, they also damage property, spread disease and even attack people and pets. In urban areas, the combination of dense human populations, buildings, impermeable surfaces, introduced vegetation, and high concentrations of food, water and pollution alter wildlife populations and communities in ways unseen in more natural environments. For these ecological and practical reasons, researchers and mangers have shown a growing interest in urban wildlife ecology and management..This growing interest in urban wildlife has inspired many studies on the subject that have yet to be synthesized in a cohesive narrative. .Urban Wildlife: Theory and Practice. | | 出版日期 | Textbook 2014 | | 关键词 | Urban Ecology; Urban Planning; Wildlife Ecology; Wildlife Management; Fish and Wildlife Biology | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4899-7500-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4899-7828-8 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4899-7500-3 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2014 |
