An account of man's impact on the ecology of Europe describing the adjustment of various animal species to human intrusion.
This work investigates how European animal species have adapted their behaviors and habitats in response to the pervasive influence of human expansion. Maurice Burton, a noted zoologist and author, utilizes his extensive background in natural history to synthesize observations on the shifting ecological balance across the continent. He presents a framework that categorizes wildlife responses to human intrusion, ranging from displacement and extinction to successful synanthropic adaptation.
