Book
Octavo, laminated boards,480 pp.,illustrations. A comprehensive update on status and conservation needs of herons with emphasis on wetland conservation. This book sets the worldwide agenda for conservation of the herons of the world. It gathers together all the details we know about the populations and distribution of the world's herons and, based on this, what we know about their conservation needs. Nothing quite like this has been attempted before. Each area of the world has been analysed by leading ornithologists who have personal experience carrying out extensive fieldwork in each geographic region. They have evaluated the status of the heron species of their regional fauna and identified the major conservation challenges they face. Specialists in the predominant conservation issues have brought their experiences and a variably complete literature to bear on both identifying challenges and encouraging approaches to conservation of the world's herons.

Pictorial boards. Condition: Very Good. Illustrated, small quarto, pp xvi, 480, a slight corner crease to the half-title and title page, otherwise very clean internally, pictorial boards, the slightest signs of wear to the corners, otherwise very good. [Heron Conservation provides a comprehensive update following two distinct threads. The status and conservation needs of herons are first presented on a regional basis, in a series of chapters set at continental or subcontinental scale. Over 200 biologists and heron conservationists - many associated with the Heron Specialist Group sponsored by Wetlands International and IUCN - have contributed to the data summarised here and these very latest census and survey results provide the most up to date and detailed picture of heron populations currently available. Chapters discussing several critical issues in heron conservation follow, often focusing on the international nature of the problem. Many heron populations are migratory and depend upon conservation of both summer and wintering wetland habitats often located on different continents. Effective conservation of these wetlands of international importance depends in large part on local and regional socio-economic factors. Herons, to the extent that they require maintenance of wetland functioning, should be an integral part of sustainable wetland conservation.].
