This book aims to propose a protocol for wildlife monitoring, in special in human-altered environments like agricultural and silvicultural landscapes. Its target audience includes wildlife biologists both in governmental sectors and NGO's, as well as scientists, university faculty, and graduate/undergraduate students at the wildlife management and correlated fields, such as biological conservation, sustainable use, human-wildlife coexistence, and wildlife surveys/monitoring. The main topics presented and discussed in detail are connected to conceptual, technological, and societal innovations, including a proposed protocol of long-term crossing spatial scale to standardize wildlife monitoring at agricultural/silvicultural landscapes. Their relevance is based on the importance of human altered environments on biodiversity conservation, as conservation units in real world (e.g., national parks and biological reserves) are insufficient to provide conservation for the integral biota. Notwithstanding, despite their plethora of environmental impacts, agricultural and silvicultural landscapes still contain a relevant part of the wildlife. Their qualified and quantified monitoring is necessary to the establishment of their conservation value, as well as their economic value in both local and international markets. This is main problem this book is destined to solve.
