Description: Living Elephants : Evolutionary Ecology, Behavior, and Conservation, Hardcover by Sukumar, Raman, ISBN 0195107780, ISBN-13 9780195107784, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Although the study of elephants can provide clues to understanding such diverse topics as mammal communities, tropical plants, and climate change, Sukumar (ecology, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore) contends that they have rarely been viewed within the framework of modern evolutionary theory. In redressing this gap, he discusses proboscidean evolution, genetics, place in history, social behavior, distribution, habitat, and conservation issues. Appended material includes a mathematical accounting of the range in elephant size. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
