| book description |

Conserving Migratory Species: An Interdisciplinary Synthesis fills an important gap in biodiversity conservation literature by providing the first synthesis exclusively and explicitly dedicated to the conservation of migratory species. This book spans ecological and environmental management to sociology and international relations. Written by an international team of carefully assembled experts, this book is organized into key cross-cutting themes relating to migratory species conservation through an integrative approach across animal groups with a global scope. Migratory species have supported human survival for millennia, yet their future is in question due to human pressures. These include species that challenge our imagination through their amazing long-distance journeys, such as the bar-tailed godwit that flies from Alaska to New Zealand, as well as many that have contributed to human survival and economic activities, such as salmons that have underpinned the lives of Native Americans and the fishing industry in the North Pacific. This book explores the diversity of migratory animals, their importance to humans, their status, and threats, as well as what we can do to conserve them through on-ground actions orchestrated by governance approaches at various scales. Conserving Migratory Species: An Interdisciplinary Synthesis is an important resource for biodiversity and conservation researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and citizens around the world who endeavor to advance migratory species and their marvelous journeys.
