As conservationists well know, political borders rarely coincide with natural ecological boundaries. International borders such as that between the United States and Mexico traverse numerous ecosystems and watersheds. Many species of animals, birds, and insects regularly migrate between habitats across international borders. Conservation of Shared Environments collects works that take on the environmental issues along the U.S.?Mexico border. Covering topics as diverse as wildlife preservation, grassland ecology, water rights, indigenous peoples, and the ecological consequences of border security, the contributors to this volume offer not only scientific analysis but also insight on how to bridge the gaps between scientists, policy makers, and the public.
