This document provides broad guidance on surveillance of infectious and non-infectious wildlife diseases, pathogens and toxic agents to assist in the implementation of a national surveillance programme for free-ranging wildlife.
One of the main challenges for conservation today is monitoring and understanding changes in biodiversity. Genetic diversity provides the foundation for biodiversity and is necessary for long-term survival, adaptation, and resilience not only for individuals, but also for populations, species, and entire ecosystems.
Featuring documentary-style photography, this work traces that remarkable story of how a species that was declared extinct in the wild was successfully reintroduced into its natural habitat.

This title presents an overview of the uses and developments of the African Waterfowl Census, illustrates the usefulness of biological data to the implementation of international conventions and agreements, summarises other international waterbird conservation initiatives, and overviews each national effort within Africa. From this, a preliminary strategy for applied programmes for waterbird monitoring in Africa is proposed.
IUCN Bangladesh has established a methodology to assess wetland biodiversity and its management and written this manual in Bengali, which will be helpful for the target audience (mainly local fishermen, farmers and other stakeholders). This book contains easy methodologies to assess fish production, species richness and wildlife diversity as well as to assess biodiversity management and habitat health by monitoring indicator species (fish, dolphin, birds, herpetofauna, etc.).
The IUCN Bangladesh Country Office has published this manual for conducting bird census, bird ringing and sample collection and analysis in hopes that it will provide a guidelines for correctly performing these tasks. This manual will be a great source of reference for researchers, experts, volunteers and all other stakeholders involved in the monitoring of wild birds and avian influenza.
Tiger populations worldwide are in tremendous pressure of extinction. Bangladesh, harboring one of the largest remaining populations of wild tigers in the vast areas of Sundarban mangrove forest, has therefore a great responsibility to protect this beautiful creature.
Cynthia és una publicació anual que ofereix un resum de les dades més destacables de cada temporada i una sèrie de seccions per a donar a conèixer les diferents estacions de mostratge, els treballs científics que genera el CBMS, els elements més importants per identificar correctament les espècies i, en general, tot allò destacable sobre l'ecologia de les papallones catalanes.
Cranes, a flagship species of waterbirds, have great cultural significance - especially the Siberian Crane. Yet, even after decades of conservation efforts, cranes remain threatened with 11 species at risk. To help reverse these trends, the UNEP/GEF Siberian Crane Wetland Project was the first project to its kind to take a "flyway" approach to conservation, looking to secure the ecological integrity of a network of 16 critical wetlands in Eurasia.
