Reviews

Wildlife Management and Conservation: Contemporary Principles and Practices does a great job introducing readers to the wildlife management triad... and provides an excellent overview of the wildlife profession for students... Although it is an introductory wildlife management text, the information supplied in the book is detailed enough to be of value to professionals. -- Kory Gann Journal of Wildlife Management
