Journal of Wildlife Management

期刊简介：The Journal of Wildlife Management publishes manuscripts containing information from original research that contributes to basic wildlife science. Suitable topics include investigations into the biology and ecology of wildlife and their habitats that has direct or indirect implications for wildlife management and conservation. This includes basic information on wildlife habitat use, reproduction, genetics, demographics, viability, predator-prey relationships, space-use, movements, behavior, and physiology; but within the context of contemporary management and conservation issues such that the knowledge may ultimately be useful to wildlife practitioners. Also considered are theoretical and conceptual aspects of wildlife science, including development of new approaches to quantitative analyses, modeling of wildlife populations and habitats, and other topics that are germane to advancing wildlife science. Limited reviews or meta analyses will be considered if they provide a meaningful new synthesis or perspective on an appropriate subject. Direct evaluation of management practices or policies should be sent to the Wildlife Society Bulletin, as should papers reporting new tools or techniques. However, papers that report new tools or techniques, or effects of management practices, within the context of a broader study investigating basic wildlife biology and ecology will be considered by The Journal of Wildlife Management. Book reviews of relevant topics in basic wildlife research and biology.

【译文】野生动物管理杂志发表包含原创研究信息的论文，这些研究有助于基本野生动物科学。适合的主题包括对野生动物及其栖息地的生物学和生态学调查，这些调查对野生动物管理和保护有直接或间接的影响。这包括野生动物栖息地利用、繁殖、遗传学、人口统计学、生存能力、捕食者-猎物关系、空间利用、移动、行为和生理学的基本信息；但与当代管理和保护问题相关，这样知识最终可能对野生动物从业者有用。还包括野生动物科学的理论和方法论方面，包括定量分析新方法的发展、野生动物种群和栖息地建模以及其他与推进野生动物科学相关的话题。如果它们提供对适当主题有意义的新的综合或观点，将考虑有限的评论或元分析。直接评估管理实践或政策应发送给野生动物协会公报，以及报告新工具或技术的论文。然而，如果这些新工具或技术、或管理实践的影响是在更广泛的研究背景下，研究基本的野生动物生物学和生态学，那么《野生动物管理杂志》将考虑这些论文。还包括对基本野生动物研究和生物学相关主题的书籍评论。
