This volume deals with three major areas of research on predatory mammals; physiological adaptations; tactics employed in predation; and management dilemmas resulting from predation that upsets an ecological balance or conflicts with human activities and land-use. Among the animals discussed are otters, badgers, foxes, shrews, martens, hyaenas, lions, tigers, and leopards.
