Abstract
The application of stable isotopes analysis in wildlife studies has increased in recent decades due to the wide range of information that can be obtained with this methodology. This chapter aims to present the basic principles of the stable isotopes analysis and their potential applications in wildlife studies. The main topics presented are diet reconstruction, trophic level, animal movements, tissue turnover rates, and ecotoxicology.
