Synopsis
Conservationists, farmers, ranchers, hunters and others long at odds over how to use or not use the land are now discovering that they can agree on a vision for the future, a vision based on the best thinking in conservation science. In The Future of the Wild , writer, scientist and activist Jonathan Adams explains the new notion of wildlife corridors wherein large tracts of lands are rescued so even the largest animals may once again roam freely, With appropriate urgency and a thorough understanding of history and the issues, Jonathan Adams offers a sound conservation strategy in The Future of the Wild, using the latest in conservation science as well as the desires of local communities to protect the places where people live and work. With modern examples, Adams shows how each small success moves conservationists closer to creating protected landscapes large enough to support animals like bison and wolves. Only with freedom to roam through and between these huge lands, using wilderness corridors, can such large animals flourish.
