This book offers the most up-to-date information on the evolution, reproduction, feeding ecology, and movement patterns of 31 species of Asian hornbills. The authors address questions of ecological functionality, ecosystem services, and keystone relationships, as well as the disturbing influence of forest loss and fragmentation on hornbills. Complemented by full colour images that provide rare glimpses of hornbills in their native habitat and black-and-white illustrations that highlight intriguing aspects of hornbill behavior, this book will stand tall in the pantheon of natural history studies for years to come.
