An understanding of the work of zoos and aquariums is central to
many programmes of study in wildlife conservation and more
specialised programmes in zoo and aquarium science and management.
This book is intended as a study and revision guide for students
following these programmes. 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 aquariums 2. Zoo and exhibit design 3.
Aquariums and Aquatic exhibits 4 Visitor studies, zoo education and
zoo research 5. Nutrition and food presentation 6 Reproductive
biology and genetics 7. Conservation breeding and assisted
reproductive technologies 8. Behaviour, training and environmental
enrichment 9. Animal welfare and conservation medicine 10. Zoo
organisation 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 behaviour of zoo visitors, the operation of
captive breeding programmes, the international organisation 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.
