摘要: Wetlands, streams, and riparian areas are often the center of wildlife conservation challenges in urban suburban areas. Most aquatic environments associated zones exhibit high diversity abundances wildlife, yet these habitat types among most threatened by urbanization. In this chapter, we focus on management their inhabitants Although a broad range rely environments, fishes, amphibians, reptiles. Fishes, reptiles play important ecological roles, systems, useful indicating conditions environments. We cover following topics chapter: (1) general importance wetlands, to wildlife; (2) that occur areas; (3) effects urbanization local regional populations semiaquatic reptiles; (4) critical elements necessary for effective
