AMERICAN WILDLIFE CONSERVATION PARTNERS
Wildlife for the 21st Century
Recommendations to President George W.
Bush
The recommendations offered in Wildlife for the 21st Century represent
a general agreement of the Wildlife Conservation Partners and
are, in our judgment, necessary to successfully resolve these
and other issues and ensure the continued success of wildlife
and wildlife management in America. While unity is a goal of the
partners, each reserves the right to establish independent positions
on any issue. In addition, not all partners necessarily support
each and every position or recommendation. Together, we stand
ready, as never before, to assist in this critically important
work.
Follow the links below to read our recommendations for wildlife in the 21st century. Each is available for viewing online or for downloading (Adobe Acrobat format).
