Oikos: Ecology of Northern New Mexico is the fruit of the author’s nearly three decades of wildlife service in New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, Oregon, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. In it, Steve Tapia — nature columnist for The Taos News and veteran wildlife biologist with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife and the U.S. Forest Services — shares his knowledge, wit, and experience of local ecology. Ecology studies the relations of living things to their environments and to each other. This book explores the wildlife, botany, landscapes, and ecosystems of Taos and Northern New Mexico.
