The course provides an understanding of the direct and indirect impact of a changing environment on wildlife, livestock and domestic animals. The direct effects will include climate driven change such as changes in weather patterns (climate change) and indirect effects such as changes in plant species and habitat change. The impacts on animals will be studied in terms of physiological, morphological, behavioural and genetic adaptations. The course will cover cellular responses to whole animal responses.
