Naturalised Birds of the World 2005 eBook

This book looks at the worlds naturalised (successfully introduced) species of
bird. Many species have been introduced to countries outside their natural range
by people, either deliberately or accidentally, with varied consequences for both
those species themselves and the native fauna of their new homes. In Britain,
the introduced Canada Goose has quickly become ubiquitous at every lake and
riverside, while the Golden Pheasant remains a scarce and unobtrusive inhabitant
of a few scattered, remote woodlands. The House Sparrow and Common Starling, both
in decline over parts of their native range, are thriving in a naturalised state
in North America and elsewhere in the world. Naturalised populations of Mallard
in various parts of the world are threatening a total of seven other duck species
with extinction through hybridisation. This book discusses each species in tu,
describing how, why, when and where its introduction took place, how it became
established, and the ecological and economic impacts its presence has had in the
country or countries it is naturalised in. Each account has a map, showing natural
and introduced range, and there is a wealth of beautiful line drawings of the
species conceed.
