- Synopsis
- This book along with the companion books in the current series offers much non-technical information of interest to the layman plus very excellent illustrations of the principal examples of the species. It attempts to answer inquiry by the person looking out the window of his car, from his back porch, hunting blind or nature sanctuary. Hunters, naturalists, photographers and "animal watchers" can therefore find these books of great value. In some cases game animals such as the whitetail deer are considered a crop to be protected where and when needed, but by the same token, they must be harvested in order to keep their numbers to a balance in line with their available territory and food supply. Other of the animals seen seldom except by hunters and hikers fall under the protection of the government agencies with their state laws and regulations. Conservation groups and organizations have in large part been responsible for the establishment of sanctuaries, law enforcement and protection of the wild animals and birds, but also have helped to alert the population to the dangers to wildlife as civilization has advanced. The awareness of the wilds and its animals and birds has been made possible through education. Part of the education is accomplished by the aid of books such as these. Once a person reads about the wilds, a contact, no matter how remote, has been made which will eventually be strengthened through further study and meeting with the creatures of the wild country.
