Conserving Wildlife

This volume explores fifteen exemplary education and communication programs that have contributed to the conservation of wildlife and natural resources around the world, presenting the perspectives necessary to confront the unbated extinction of animal and plant species and increasing human pressure on tropical and temperate forests, wetlands, and marine environments. Includes documented examples of conservation education programs, with sections on planning, implementing, and assessing each program.

This volume documents 25 programmes that have contributed, through education and widening channels of communication, to the conservation of wildlife and natural resources. Case studies range from a national park programme in Borneo to water quality improvement in the Michigan River.
