< P> A compilation of the scientific papers presented at the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute's 25th Anniversary Conference of April 2006, Wildlife Science: Linking Ecological Theory and Management Applications elucidates the theoretical underpinnings of wildlife management and applies evolving ecological concepts to changes and adaptations in management practices. Divided into five parts, the first two parts deal with the landscape ecology of birds and mammals respectively. Part three highlights the importance of climate when applying ecological theory to habitat management....

Originally published in English as White-Tailed Deer Habitat: Ecology and Management on Rangelands (Texas A&M University Press, 2005), this Spanish-language edition brings a valuable management tool to a new reading audience. Unlike other books on white-tailed deer in places where rainfall is relatively high and the environment stable, this book takes an ecological approach to deer management in the semiarid lands of Oklahoma, Texas, and northern Mexico. These are the least productive of white-tail habitats, where periodic drought punctuates long-term weather patterns. The book's focus...

Northern bobwhites are one of the most popular game birds in the United States. In Texas alone, nearly 100,000 hunters take to the field each fall and winter to pursue wild bobwhite quail. Texas is arguably the last remaining state with sufficient habitat to provide quail-hunting opportunities on a grand scale, and Texas ranchers with good bobwhite habitat often generate a greater proportion of their income from fees paid by quail hunters than from livestock production. Managing and expanding bobwhite habitat makes good sense economically, and it benefits the environment as well. The...

The original, 2006 edition of Timothy Edward Fulbright and J. Alfonso Ortega-S. s "White-Tailed Deer Habitat: Ecology and Management on Rangelands" was hailed as a splendid reference for the classroom and those who make their living from wildlife and the land and as filling a niche that is not currently approached in the literature. In this second, full-color edition, revised and expanded to include the entire western United States and northern Mexico, Fulbright and Ortega-S. provide a carefully reasoned synthesis of ecological and range management principles that incorporates rangeland...
