Wildlife Biology
Open-access science for wildlife ecology, management, and conservation.
WILDLIFE BIOLOGY adopts a broad concept of wildlife management, including all policies and actions with the purpose of conservation, sustainable use, or control of wildlife and its habitats, in order to safeguard sustainable relationships between wildlife and other human interests. We have a broad concept of 'wildlife' and studies of mammals, birds and other taxa or phenomena relevant to wildlife issues are all of great interest. WILDLIFE BIOLOGY is a high-quality scientific forum directing concise and up-to-date knowledge to scientists, administrators, wildlife managers and conservationists. The journal encourages and welcomes original papers, short communications and review papers written in English from throughout the world. We invite you to submit to the next “International Wildlife Congress” special issue. Questions? Email: me@wildlifebiology.org
