It forms part of a series designed to promote a more evidence-based approach to biodiversity conservation. Others in the series include bee, bird, farmland and bat conservation and many others are in preparation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 32% of the 7,164+ amphibian species are currently threatened with extinction and at least 43% of species are declining. Despite this, until recently amphibians and their conservation had received little attention. Although work is now being carried out to conserve many species, often it is not adequately documented.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book brings together and summarises the available scientific evidence and \u003cbr\u003eexperience relevant to the practical conservation of amphibians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors consulted an international group of amphibian experts and \u003cbr\u003econservationists to produce a thorough summary of what is known, or not known, \u003cbr\u003eabout the effectiveness of amphibian conservation actions across the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The book is packed with literature summaries and citations; a veritable information goldmine for graduate students and researchers. It also admirably provides decision makers with a well-researched resource of proven interventions that can be employed to stem\/reverse the decline of amphibian populations.\" -John G Palis, Bulletin of the Chicago Herpetological Society","brand":"Pelagic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48682556227813,"sku":"NP9781907807862","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/O_19bca59f-3220-47b6-8f83-267aa64537e7.jpg?v=1775168270","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/amphibian-conservation-isbn-9781907807862","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
