Social Strategies of Carnivorous Mammalian Predators : Hunting and Surviving as Families Hardback

Edited by Mridula Srinivasan, Bernd Wursig

Part of the Fascinating Life Sciences series

Hardback

Description

The book offers a comparative look at the social strategies of five carnivorous social predators (four terrestrial and one marine) that make them successful hunting units.

The focus is on mammalian predators hunting (largely) mammalian prey.

Each chapter (with separate authors) devoted to a particular species, explores the versatile hunting techniques and social dynamics of these top predators as they attempt to survive, defend, and reproduce in challenging habitats.

Each chapter also delves into how the social fabric and ecology of each species influence their ability to deal with natural and man-made threats and shifting baselines.
