Rangeland ecosystems which include unimproved grasslands,
shrublands, savannas and semi-deserts, support half of the world's
livestock, while also providing habitats for some of the most
charismatic of wildlife species. This book examines the pressures

over-hunting, and subsistence and commercial farming of livestock
and crops. Leading experts have pooled their experiences from all
continents to cover the ecological, sociological, political,
veterinary, and economic aspects of rangeland management today.
