WILDLIFE CONSERVATION.
“The first great need for the future wildlife programme,” said Dr. Gabrielson at the North American Wildlife Conference, held at Washington on the 18th March, “is more information, dependable facts and no guesswork
. . . research must be continued and on an increasing and expanding scale.” To attain the goal of adequate and suitable places in which wildlife may live, he emphasised the importance of acquiring for this purpose such areas as are geographically strategic with relation to wildlife distribution. Finally, he urged, education must be extended into many fields. He declared that “we have not yet developed an effective mechanism for getting conservation understanding and information into the minds of those who do not yet know and appreciate its basic significance to future human welfare.”
