Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Saskatchewan Forest Habitat Project (SFHP) was undertaken to help integrate timber and wildlife management objectives into forest management practices in the Weyerhaeuser Saskatchewan Limited Forest Management License Agreement (FMLA) area. Habitat supply models, which use the concept of indicator species, were developed for six of the approximately 250 species of birds and mammals found in the FMLA area. An important component of assessing the viability of the SFHP is determining its impacts on stakeholders. A study was undertaken to examine two user groups (wildlife viewers and moose hunters), their use of the FMLA area, and the potential impact of habitat supply models on their activities. Mail surveys were used to collect information on wildlife use, attitudes toward wildlife, and viewing and hunting preferences. Both groups were similar in terms of some socioeconomic characteristics, attitudes toward wildlife, and reasons for participating, but differed in terms of the factors that detracted from their wildlife experiences. The Weyerhaeuser FMLA area is important for viewing and hunting activities. However, simply managing for species and their habitat may not meet the demands of these users. Incorporating an experience-based management framework with habitat supply models may be necessary to meet their needs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The national parks of North America are great public treasures, visited by 300 million people each year. Set aside to be kept in relatively natural condition, these remarkable places of forests, rivers, mountains, and wildlife still inspire our "capacity for wonder." Today, however, the parks are threatened by increasingly difficult problems from both inside and outside their borders. This book, enriched with personal anecdotes of the author's trips throughout the parks of North America, examines changes in the park services of the United States and Canada over the past fifteen years. William Lowry describes the many challenges facing the parks—such as rising crime, tourism, and overcrowding, pollution, eroding funding for environmental research, and the contentious debate over preservation versus use—and the abilities of the agencies to deal with them. The Capacity for Wonder provides a revealing comparison of the U.S. National Park Service (NPS) and the Canadian Parks Service (CPS). The author explains that, while the services are similar in many ways, the priorities of these two agencies have changed dramatically in recent years. Lowry shows how increasing conflicts over agency goals and decreasing institutional support have make the NPS vulnerable to interagency disputes, reluctant to take any risks in its operations, and extremely responsive to political pressures. As a result, U.S. national parks are now managed mainly to serve political purposes. Lowry illustrates how in the 1980s politicians pushed the NPS to expand private uses of national parks through development, timber harvesting, grazing, and mining, while environmental groups push the NPS in the other direction. Over the same period, the CPS enjoyed a clarification of goals and increased institutional supports. As a result, the CPS has been able to decentralize its structure, empower its employees, and renew its commitment to preservation. Lowry considers several proposals to change the institutions governing the parks. His own recommendations are more in line with proposals to revitalize public agencies than with those that suggest replacing them with private enterprise, state agencies, or endowment boards. Lowry concludes that preserving nature should be the primary, explicit goal of the park services, and he calls for a stronger commitment to that goal in the United States.

Download or read book Selecting Wildlife Species for Integrating Habitat Supply Models Into Forest Management Planning in Manitoba written by D. H. Kuhnke and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In selecting wildlife species for integrating habitat supply models into forest management planning in Manitoba, the underlying principle is that the habitat requirements of most species found in the boreal forest will be satisfied if habitats are maintained for a carefully selected mix of species. The selection methods and 13 basic steps used by the Manitoba Forestry/Wildlife Management Project to arrive at 19 species of wildlife are described. The provincial forest inventory was used as the basis for identification of major habitat types. Emphasis was placed on species for which habitat suitability index models were developed elsewhere in North America, and on ensuring that all the major habitat types have at least one species that is dependent on it for its life requisites.
