“…CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Our study shows that localized perturbations are unlikely to affect the dynamics of real metapopulations, a finding that has cautionary implications for ecologists and conservation biologists faced with the problem of stabilizing unstable metapopulations in nature.…”

“…Due to their worldwide distribution and diversity, catfishes are interesting models for ecologists and evolutionary biologists. Incidentally, catfish emerged as an excellent animal model for aquaculture research because of economic importance, availability, disease resistance, adaptability to artificial spawning, handling, culture, high fecundity, hatchability, hypoxia tolerance and their ability to acclimate to laboratory conditions. …”

“…Researchers and university students collaborate in this book, as well as members of peasant organizations, which are agronomists, agroecologists, historians, communicators, educators, anthropologists, biologists, and ecologists. Their theoretical-analytical views are based on the practice of the relationship of human populations and territory, addressing realities where complex thinking, diversity, and transdiscipline are fundamental as means to understand and address the challenges of this problematic era of humanity.…”

Also, psychologists were not interested in animal personality as a consequence of the fear of anthropomorphization and the erroneous belief that humans are unique in nature. …”
