摘要: The effect of human disturbance on animals is frequently measured in terms changes behaviour response to presence. magnitude these then often used as a measure the relative susceptibility species disturbance; for example which show strong avoidance presence are considered be greater need protection from than those do not. In this paper we discuss whether such likely good measures species, and suggest that their use may result confusion when determining conservation priorities.
