"Outdoor recreation has historically been viewed as an environmentally benign activity. Yet with growing numbers of recreationists visiting public lands, and with a greater understanding of the role of public land in safeguarding biodiversity, it is becoming apparent that the effects of recreation on both the environment and wildlife are chronic and pervasive."--BOOK JACKET. "Wildlife and Recreationists defines and clarifies the issues surrounding the conflict between outdoor recreation and the health and well-being of wildlife and ecosystems. The book is a valuable synthesis of what is known concerning wildlife and recreation. More important, it addresses both research needs and management options to minimize conflicts."--BOOK JACKET.
