Population matters -- The state of British wildlife -- Human Activities directly killing wildlife -- Impacts of development on wildlife declines -- Impacts of farming and forestry on wildlife declines -- Climate change, disease and disturbance -- The human population and wildlife in Britain and western Europe -- Public perceptions of wildlife and population issues -- International aspects of population growth -- Conservation in a crowded country.

Wildlife and the countryside are highly valued by people in the UK, and for good reason. Healthy habitats are invaluable assets and promote human wellbeing. However, they are under increasing threat from, among other things, relentless urban expansion and intensive modern agriculture. These pressures largely stem from a major underlying cause - the high and growing population of humans living in the UK. This book provides an overview of wildlife in the UK and its recent status; factors contributing to wildlife declines; trends in human numbers; international deliberations about the impacts of human population growth; and the implications for the future of wildlife conservation in the UK. The evidence-based text includes comparisons of wildlife declines and their causes in other countries, providing a global perspective. This book is for ecologists, naturalists and conservation biologists studying and working in academia or in consultancies, as well as all those interested in wildlife conservation.
