Wildlife Law Ethics A US Perspective Yolanda Eisenstein Bruce Wagman 9781634258043 Books Reviews

• This book is very accessible and informative for a wide audience including lawyers, wildlife advocates, and citizens interested in wildlife and the environment. The authors who are all experts in their respective fields provide relevant information and insights into the ethics and conflicts that exist with the decisions that affect wild animals.
  
  The book states that we have lost more than half of the world's wildlife species in the last forty years and are on track to lose two-thirds of our wild animals by 2020. This book focuses on the power of U.S. law to influence wildlife protections around the world. Chapters are organized around "focused areas of influence" on topics including the gray wolf, African elephants, whales, captive wild animals, and more.
  
  This is the most relevant information I have encountered on this topic. Clearly reading this timely book and taking action are both more important than ever. And as the authors write, "By understanding the issues and the laws, it is clear how the products we buy, the entertainment we chose, and the votes we cast have a direct impact on wildlife and the environment." Crystal clear.
