This textbook on animal behavior is designed for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in veterinary science, animal science, and zoology and offers an integrated view of behavioral biology, bridging classical ethology, cognitive neuroscience, and ecological adaptation with practical veterinary applications. The initial chapters provide foundational aspects such as orientation, motivation, and communication before moving into core themes of learned behavior, cognition, social dynamics, reproduction, and courtship. It further addresses applied behavioral contexts in veterinary practice, including stress and welfare indicators, the impact of hormones and drugs, and human-animal interactions. The final sections explore ecological and evolutionary behavior, including movement, habitat selection, and behavioral responses to altered ecosystems. Emphasizing both theoretical depth and practical application, the book provides students and professionals with a modern, interdisciplinary perspective on the role of behavior in animal health, welfare, and survival. Key feature: 1) Provides an overview of animal behavior, covering foundational principles, learning and cognition, social dynamics, reproductive strategies, and ecological interactions. 2) Addresses complex behavioural phenomena such as social dominance, reproductive strategies, maternal investment, altruism, and host-parasite interactions within both naturalistic and managed settings 3) Explains the evolutionary and physiological basis of behaviour, drawing upon current understanding in genetics, endocrinology, neuroethology, and environmental biology 4) Examines behavioural responses to environmental pressures, including migration, habitat selection, anthropogenic disturbance, and ecosystem alterations 5) Incorporates the impact of exogenous influences such as hormone therapy, drug administration, and human-animal interactions on behavioural outcomes Short Blurb This veterinary textbook for postgraduate students presents an in-depth overview of animal behavior, combining ethological theory, behavioral neuroscience, and veterinary applications. It explores cognition, communication, stress responses, social behavior, and ecological adaptations, making it an important resource for students and professionals in veterinary and animal sciences. Seasonal Blurb This textbook for advanced graduate and postgraduate veterinary students introduces animal behavior through a modern lens, integrating classical ethology with veterinary, ecological, and neurophysiological insights. Designed for advanced veterinary and life science students, it covers foundational concepts such as orientation, motivation, and communication and extends into complex areas including social structure, cognitive behavior, stress and welfare indicators, pharmacological impacts, and reproductive strategies. The ecological dimension explores behavior in response to environmental shifts, host-parasite interactions, and conservation. It is useful for students and professionals in veterinary and animal sciences.

A beautifully illustrated account of the evolutionary journey of mammals in Africa.For more than 80 million years, "Island Africa" was a vast, isolated landmass south of the ancient Tethys Sea. Despite this isolation, waves of pioneering mammals crossed the sea, sparking remarkable evolutionary success stories that include the ancestors of elephants, primates, aardvarks, and more. Follow the extraordinary evolutionary journey of African mammals in this definitive account of how Africa's unique isolation shaped the development of some of Earth's most iconic species. Emmanuel Gheerbrant, a world-renowned expert in mammal evolution, weaves together paleontological discoveries and cutting-edge molecular research to illuminate this fascinating history. Through a comprehensive exploration of fossil evidence and stunning original artwork, this book reveals the origins and adaptations of extraordinary creatures, from the extinct Arsinoitherium and Moeritherium to today's elephants and lemurs. Gheerbrant explores the environmental and climatic forces that shaped these mammals, the impact of Africa's collision with Eurasia, and the enduring legacy of its evolutionary innovations on today's global biodiversity. Meticulously researched and beautifully illustrated, The Rise of Mammals in Africa provides an unparalleled window into a critical chapter of natural history. Whether you're a paleontologist, evolutionary biologist, or a curious reader captivated by Africa's natural wonders, this book is a gorgeously illustrated resource for understanding the origins of life as we know it.
