Social Badger

The synthesis of ten years of research, this volume focuses on European badgers, describing how and why they live in groups and the ecological factors that have molded their behavior. Density of the badger population is discussed, as is the size of their clans, the area of their territories, their food selection and foraging strategies. The critical role of human activities and agriculture is carefully covered, and suggestions for management practices based on scientific understanding are set forth to promote the coexistence of human activity and badgers.Kruuk, Hans is the author of 'Social Badger', published 1989 under ISBN 9780198587033 and ISBN 0198587031.
