Presents 18 articles that explore issues of wildlife preservation such as animals and their behavior, the ecosystems that contribute to their foundering or flourishing, human behavior and political feasibility, and the likely outcomes of various conservation strategies. The papers are organized into sections that look at: the moral ramifications of individuals' actions towards wildlife; strategies of wildlife management in relation to alien species, overpopulation, and other problems; the social and political ramifications of preservation, particularly in the third world where preservation policy is often associated with colonial rule; and finally, free market theories that argue that best way to preserve wildlife is to economically utilize it.
