Understanding the effects of habitat depletion
Habitat loss is a serious issue for any individual in terms of its ability to survive, forcing it to adapt quickly to a state of greater vulnerability as well as having adverse and unforeseen side-effects on the whole population. Indeed, habitat removal is one of the principal causes of species rarity and endangerment, and thus a major concern in the conservation of wildlife as well as a prime objective in the management of pest species. To tackle this growing and still relatively unexplored field of research, Patrick Doncaster’s team is investigating responses by rocky-shore periwinkle snails to the depletion and redistribution of their resources of food and refuge shelter

Abstract
Habitat loss is a serious issue for any individual in terms of its ability to survive, forcing it to adapt quickly to a state of greater vulnerability as well as having adverse and unforeseen side-effects on the whole population. Indeed, habitat removal is one of the principal causes of species rarity and endangerment, and thus a major concern in the conservation of wildlife as well as a prime objective in the management of pest species. To tackle this growing and still relatively unexplored field of research, Patrick Doncaster’s team is investigating responses by rocky-shore periwinkle snails to the depletion and redistribution of their resources of food and refuge shelter
