Acknowledgements
I very much appreciate the comments and suggestions of Árpád Dobolyi, Hans Hofmann, András Kosztolányi, Grant McDonald and Gergely Zachar on previous version of this manuscript. Vast majority of these projects would have been impossible without the dedicated, insightful and enthusiastic contributions of many students, post-docs, colleagues, academics and conservationists: a big thankyou to all.I also owe a huge thank to my wife and two sons who bore the brunt of my enthusiasm for science and conservation. I am also indebted to my parents and grandmother for encouraging me to embark on this career tract.
