Synopsis "Key Questions in Zoo and Aquarium Studies: A Study and Revision Guide"

An understanding of the work of zoos and aquariums is central to many programs of study in wildlife conservation and more specialized programs in zoo and aquarium science and management. This book is intended as a study and revision guide for students following these programs. It contains 600 multiple-choice questions (and answers) set at three levels--foundation, intermediate and advanced--and grouped into 10 major topic areas: 1. History of zoos and aquariums2. Zoo and exhibit design3. Aquariums and aquatic exhibits4 Visitor studies, zoo education and zoo research5. Nutrition and food presentation6. Reproductive biology and genetics7. Conservation breeding and assisted reproductive technologies8. Behavior, training and environmental enrichment9. Animal welfare and conservation medicine10. Zoo organization and regulation The book has been produced in a convenient format so that it can be used at any time in any place. It allows the reader to learn and revise the meaning of terms used in zoo and aquarium biology, the principles of animal husbandry and enclosure design, the behavior of zoo visitors, the operation of captive breeding programs, the international organization of zoos, their legal regulation and much more. The structure of the book allows the study of one topic area at a time, progressing through simple questions to those that are more demanding. Many of the questions require students to use their knowledge to interpret information provided in the form of graphs, diagrams, data or photographs.
