Wildlife, Conservation, and Human Welfare: A United States and Canadian Perspective

by Richard D. Taber, Neil F. Payne

This work provides historical information on wildlife and its conservation relative to human welfare, the dependence human society had on wildlife historically, and the dependence society still has on wildlife and wildlife habitats as the natural resource base for a healthy ecosystem. In writing this book, the authors have attempted to provide society with the perspective it needs to evaluate historical experiences, both successes and failures.
