Despite their low species density, hyaenas are both unique and vital components of most African and some Asian ecosystems. Although there are only 4 species, they tend to clash with the interests of humans to a greater extent than many other mammals and one of the biggest obstacles facing those committed to the conservation of this species is the negative feelings that many people have towards hyaenas. This Action Plan sets out to address some of the problems facing this species and, particularly the issue of public perception and awareness, and provides guidelines to rectify this situation.
Dengler is masterful at creating characters that come alive in any era. I loved Gar. Hes so nakedinside and out. Yet at the same time, he is mysterious and secretive. Im reminded of Ellis Peters Brother Cadfael series in the way Dengler has placed a unique individual in a unique settingin a time and place one would least expect to find so astute an amateur sleuth. This mystery buff is already clamoring for more. -- Pat Rushford, author of the Helen Bradley Mysteries

The Biology of African Savannahs (Biology of Habitats Series)
Savannah habitats comprise an ecologically important but ultimately fragile ecosystem. They constitute one of the largest biomes on Earth, covering about twenty percent of the land surface, and can be simply described as tropical and subtropical grasslands with scattered bushes and trees. Most savannahs occur in Africa (with a smaller amount in South America, India and Australia), which is the region that this book concentrates on. Savannahs form a rich mosaic of diverse ecosystems, and The Biology of African Savannahs offers a concise but comprehensive introduction to their ecology. It describes the major plants (grasses, and trees such as Acacia) and animals (mainly large mammals) that live in this habitat, and examines the biological and ecological factors that influence their population size, interactions (such as predation) and community composition. Conservation issues such as climate change, hunting, and conflict between wildlife and domestic animals are also discussed.
This accessible text is suitable for both senior undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in savannah and tropical ecology as part of a wider ecology and/or conservation biology degree program. It will also be of relevance and use to the many professional ecologists and conservation practitioners requiring a concise but authoritative overview of the topic.
