Stephen DeStefano Books

Focusing on plant ecology, this book serves as a foundational resource for effective vegetation and wildlife management. It delves into the interrelationships between plant species and their environments, providing insights into sustainable management practices that support biodiversity and ecosystem health. Through a blend of theory and practical applications, it equips readers with the knowledge necessary to address ecological challenges and enhance conservation efforts.

A moose frustrates commuters by wandering onto the highway; an alligator suns himself in a strip mall parking lot. DeStefano draws on decades of experience as a biologist and conservationist to examine the interplay between urban sprawl and wayward wildlife. He asks us to rethink the meaning of progress and create a new suburban wildlife ethic.
