WFS 431 - Wildlife Physiology and Nutrition3 Credit Hours
An introduction and overview of the physiological and nutritional mechanisms important behind the regulation of wild animal populations (primarily wild birds and mammals). Wildlife responses to seasonal changes in habitat are critical for understanding management options. Discussion of use of chemical immobilization options, physiological indicators, and genetic analysis of wild animal population dynamics.
Credit Restriction: Students may not receive credit for both WFS 431 and WFS 531.
