==Career==
David Macdonald's concept was, and remains, to undertake original research on aspects of fundamental biology relevant to solving practical problems of wildlife conservation and environmental management, and thus to underpin policy formation and public debate of the many issues that surround the conservation of wildlife and its habitats.〔 From his early work on red foxes he retains a specialisation in carnivores, with an increasing emphasis on felids. He has published over 300 papers in refereed international journals, and written or edited more than a dozen books, of which the most recent is ''Key Topics in Conservation Biology''.
Amongst other things he is currently a Visiting Professor at Imperial College, chair of the Darwin Advisory Committee, Chair of Natural England's Science Advisory Committee and board member, a Trustee of Earthwatch Europe〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Earthwatch Europe – Board and Governance )〕 and WWF-UK, and council member of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust.〔
He has done much to popularise biology with the general public. He is known for his documentary films and his popular books, for which he has twice won the Natural World Author of the Year award. His ''Night of the Fox'' won the BAFTA for Best Documentary Film of 1976, ''Running with the Fox'' won the Natural History Book of the Year award for 1987, and ''Meerkats United'' won the Wildscreen 1988 award. His films include the popular BBC seven-part series ''The Velvet Claw'', a natural history of carnivores.
