Kritik
"It is devoted to a current and hot area in wildlife. ... The book emerges as a keyhole for the greater door of wildlife management which can contribute to a better understanding. A book of this sort is recommended for wildlife and forestry students. It can also widen the perspective of policy makers on problematic species by paving a better way of sorting it." (S. Suresh Ramanan and Anatoliy A. Khapugin, Nature Conservation Research, Vol. 2 (2), 2017)mehr
