Vertebrate Damage Management: The Future Of An Evolving Profession, Robert H. Giles Jr. Oct 1997

Vertebrate Damage Management: The Future Of An Evolving Profession, Robert H. Giles Jr.

Eighth Eastern Wildlife Damage Management Conference (1997)

The author argues that an objective of a new group of people taking a systems approach to large wild animal problems should be to manage damage as a cost-reducing role within a total, profitable, long-term system, not necessarily to control the "pest." The needs are for well-grounded financial analyses both for customers, the public, the resources, and the well-being of the profession. A point of view is advanced for the need for evolving pest-related operations into a new, unique profession that is involved in a profound way as an element of a cost-effective total land and human resource production system.
