Arid lands require that organisms inhabiting them be well-adapted
to thrive or even just to survive. This book provides a review of
the ecological adaptations - be they behavioural, physiological or
morphological - of carnivores to arid environments. Following a
general introduction into aridity and arid lands in Africa, the
major carnivore families are presented. Ecological adaptations of
carnivores in arid lands reveal the amplitude and resilience of the
ecology of these animals. In setting up conservation measures, the
nature and extent of such adaptations are important facets in
determining the effective area and degree of heterogeneity required
as habitat by a carnivore population so as to produce a viable
unit.
