BIO 339 - Mammalogy

The study of mammals is inherently interesting because, as members of this group, humans are similar to other mammals in many aspects of form and function. Also, wild and domestic mammals have great cultural, economic, and ecological importance. This course involves the study of the evolution, taxonomy, morphology, physiology, behavior, ecology, and conservation of mammals. It will examine the myriad structural and physiologic features which allow free-living mammals to exploit different types of habitats to survive and flourish.
