This text teaches students the principles of biology in the context of how science

relates to the survival of fish and wildlife. Students will find their interest peaked as

the book integrates the principles of zoology and ecology with the lives of different

kinds of wild animals that inhabit North America. The book gives descriptions of the

lives, structures, growth, and classification of species in their natural habitats, and

raises critical thinking questions to initiate the steps taken in the process of scientific

discovery. Fish and Wildlife: Principles of Zoology and Ecology, 2E helps students

appreciate how each animal is adapted to its environment and generates discussion

of ways that humans and animals can reduce competition for resources that are

needed by both. This 2nd edition meets the criteria for science content for high

school classes, local agriculture programs, and can also be used as a reference book.
