Prof. Jim Hone

Jim Hone is a wildlife ecologist who specialises in research on managing vertebrate pests and their impacts. This work has required a sound understanding of the fundamental tenets of experimental design and sampling, and how these are put into practice in the less than controlled environment of field experiments. Jim has a degree in natural resource management, a masters in vertebrate population dynamics and a PhD in vertebrate pest control. He has run a number of courses within the higher education sector, and for industry bodies, on experimental design and sampling. Contact: [surname]@aerg.canberra.edu.au.
