Caro, T.
The behaviour-conservation interface
1999  Tree (14): 366-369

In the past four years, there have been several attempts to apply studies of animal behaviour to conservation. Knowledge of individuals' behaviour has the potential to alter understanding of how populations fare in fragmented habitats, the responses of populations to exploitation and disturbance, disease susceptibility, effective population size, captive breeding and reintroduction efforts, and population monitoring and modelling. It can even be useful in understanding human conservation actions.
