This book, “Behavioral Ecology: Survival, Strategy and Selection,” has been written to present a coherent understanding of the adaptive significance of behavior in natural environments. It emphasizes that behavior is not random but is shaped by environmental pressures, resource availability, competition, and evolutionary history, all of which guide organisms toward strategies that maximize their fitness.
The title reflects the three core dimensions that frame the entire discussion. Survival represents the biological necessity that drives organisms to cope with predation, environmental variability, and resource constraints.
This book aims to integrate theoretical foundations with realworld ecological examples, demonstrating how behavior serves as a crucial interface between organisms and their environments.
