Dominion over Wildlife?

For centuries Christians believed that God granted humanity dominion over the animal kingdom, meaning that we had a moral right to kill, manage, and eat animals including wildlife.

Beyond the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation

The North American Wildlife Conservation Model (NAM) is the driver of a strong anthropocentric stance, which has legalized an ongoing, annual exploitation of hundreds of millions of wild animals, who are killed in the United States through trapping, hunting and other lethal practices. Increasingly, the American public opposes the killing of wild animals for recreation, trophies and profit but has little—if any—knowledge of the Model. The purpose of this book is to empower the public with knowledge about the NAM’s insufficiencies and to help expedite the shift from lethal to compassionate conservation, an endeavour urgently needed particularly under the threats of climate change, human ...

A commander of the Order of Military Merit and an Officer of the Order of Canada, Richard Rohmer's military career began in World War II, where he flew over the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, one of a tour of 135 missions for which he received the Distinguished Flying Cross. It was this service as a pilot that led to a unique meeting with Field Marshal Erwin Rommel. Sixty years later Rohmer was appointed the Chair of the Canadian government's D-Day Commemoration Advisory Committee. From negotiating the agreement that led to the McMichael Art Gallery, to lobbying the federal government to develop Canada's north, to re-organizing the militia, Rohmer has been at the centre of many diverse and wide-ranging events in the last half-century. He has flown with President John F. Kennedy, welcomed Queen Elizabeth to Juno Beach on the sixtieth anniversary of D-Day, and written biographies of E.P. Taylor and Peter Munk.

The World Hunt

Presented here is the final and most coherent section of a sweeping classic work in environmental history, The Unending Frontier. The World Hunt focuses on the commercial hunting of wildlife and its profound global impact on the environment and the early modern world economy. Tracing the massive expansion of the European quest for animal products, The World Hunt explores the fur trade in North America and Russia, cod fishing in the North Atlantic, and whaling and sealing on the world’s oceans and coastlands.
