Wild Otters Predation and Populations

Evidence pointing to a decline in the European Otter population (Lutra lutra) is causing concern among ecologists and conservationists. This important new book written from direct observation of otter populations in Scotland, is the first attempt at a scientific description of populations and behaviour of this species. This essential research offers a fascinating insight into the ecology of mammals living in a hostile environment and provides a much needed basis for active conservation management.Kruuk, Hans is the author of 'Wild Otters Predation and Populations', published 1995 under ISBN 9780198540700 and ISBN 0198540701.
