Intriguingly, the book reveals that nest defense isn't random but a carefully calibrated response to environmental pressures, highlighting the profound link between behavior, environment, and evolutionary history.
The book progresses from foundational concepts of parental investment to profiling diverse nest defenders, such as Canada geese and crocodiles, analyzing their unique strategies. It further explores the ecological and evolutionary forces driving these behaviors, including predation and climate change.
This approach offers readers a comprehensive understanding of why animals risk their lives for their young, making it valuable for anyone interested in animal behavior, ecology, and wildlife conservation.
