dc.description.abstractHuman activities affect wildlife quite adversely, and humans have duties to care for them, both because of what humans have at stake and also because of what wildlife are in themselves. The main ethical issues in wildlife management (1) the contemporary crisis of conserving historically evolved wildlife populations on rapidly developing human landscapes (2) ownership, control, management, and stewardship responsibilities for wildlife, (3) conservation of endangered wildlife species, (4) fishes and fisheries as managed wildlife populations, (5) wildlife as game for hunting and trapping, including hunting as a conservation strategy, (6) "hands-on" versus "hands-off" management, and (7) feral animals. These are issues of management objectives, but there are ethical questions at every point.
