Description

Reviews

This book focuses on wildlife populations and their welfare in the United States and Canada as affected by human cultures from the European and North American Stone Age to contemporary times, within the framework of relevant global developments.  It traces changes in wildlife habitats and populations, and the evolving patterns of human response to wildlife endangerment in industrial societies.  The underlying assumption is that the evaluation of successes and failures in wildlife conservation will provide guidance toward ultimate success in nationwide and worldwide restoration and maintenance of native wild species in their appropriate habitats.

"This book should be added to the collections of all serious wildlife biologists and conservation biologists, indeed anyone interested in the past as well as future management of North America's wildlife resources." -- Guy A. Baldassarre, Journal of Wildlife Management, 2004

"This book is a firework; it is full of incredible details on managed and mismanaged wildlife and natural resources...one can hardly find a more honest and matching description of the current state of wildlife management in North America and elsewhere." -- Falk Huettmann, Canadian Field-Naturalist, Vol. 119

"This convincing text comes from two acknowledged experts who have been within the wildlife management circles for over 30 years.  This book is one of the best reads as a resource for wildlife management and related issues I am aware of." -- Falk Huettmann, International Bear News, November 2007, Vol. 16 No.4
