More than half of all lands worldwide, and up to 70% of the western USA, are classified as rangelands -- uncultivated lands that often support grazing by domestic livestock. The rangelands of North America provide a vast array of goods and services, including significant economic benefit to local communities, while providing critical habitat for hundreds of species of fish and wildlife. This book provides compendium of recent data and synthesis from more than 100 experts in wildlife and rangeland ecology in Western North America. It provides a current and in-depth synthesis of knowledge related to wildlife ecology in rangeland ecosystems, and the tools used to manage them, to serve current and future wildlife biologists and rangeland managers in the working landscapes of the West. The book also identifies information gaps and serves as a jumping-off point for future research of wildlife in rangeland ecosystems. While the content focuses on wildlife ecology and management in rangelands of Western North America, the material has important implications for rangeland ecosystems worldwide. 001480677 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on October 06, 2023). 001480677 650_0 $$aRange management. 001480677 650_0 $$aRange ecology.$$0(DLC)sh 85111358 001480677 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001480677 7001_ $$aMcNew, Lance B.$$eeditor. 001480677 7001_ $$aDahlgren, David K.$$eeditor. 001480677 7001_ $$aBeck, Jeffrey L.,$$eeditor. 001480677 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMcNew, Lance B.$$tRangeland Wildlife Ecology and Conservation$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031340369 001480677 852__ $$bebk 001480677 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-34037-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.2 001480677 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1480677$$pGLOBAL_SET 001480677 980__ $$aBIB 001480677 980__ $$aEBOOK 001480677 982__ $$aEbook 001480677 983__ $$aOnline 001480677 994__ $$a92$$bISE
