Description: Wildlife in general and wildlife viewing in particular play significant roles in enriching the aesthetic experiences of visitors to wildlands. Effective management of wildlife for viewing must be based on human as well as biological information. The integration of the principles and techniques developed for game management with information on the human dimensions of wildlife appreciation offers tremendous potential in management of wildlife as a visual resource. These opportunities can not only provide benefits to the public but can also serve to stimulate awareness and concern for our national landscape.
