Colorado Division of Wildlife and
Watchable Wildlife, Inc. present a new resource book for wildlife
viewing professionals: Providing Positive Wildlife Viewing Experiences,
a Practical Handbook by Deborah Richie Oberbillig.
How can wildlife viewing professionals
bring people in close contact with nature, while honoring the "wild" in
wildlife? You'll find practical planning tips on matching viewers with
experiences, handling large and small groups of wildlife watchers, and
designing viewing blinds, boardwalks, stream profile chambers and
discovery trails. A special section focuses on the challenges posed by
feeding wild animals, loving-wildlife-to-death, and imparting viewing
ethics. Case studies offer success stories ranging from bear viewing at
McNeil River State Game Sanctuary in Alaska to sandhill crane
observation on Nebraska's Platte River. Every case study and example
includes a specific contact with address, phone and email.
