Wildlife and recreationists

coexistence through management and research

Edición de la obra Wildlife and recreationists

"Outdoor recreation has historically been viewed as an environmentally benign activity. Yet with growing numbers of recreationists visiting public lands, and with a greater understanding of the role of public land in safeguarding biodiversity, it is becoming apparent that the effects of recreation on both the environment and wildlife are chronic and pervasive."--BOOK JACKET. "Wildlife and Recreationists defines and clarifies the issues surrounding the conflict between outdoor recreation and the health and well-being of wildlife and ecosystems. The book is a valuable synthesis of what is known concerning wildlife and recreation. More important, it addresses both research needs and management options to minimize conflicts."--BOOK JACKET.
