Wildlife populations are increasingly impacted by activities that in the past have been outside the province of resource managers. World population growth and development are generating unprecedented pressures on wildlife and its habitats; in addition, pollution and global perturbations such as ozone depletion and climatic change threaten wildlife. It is becoming increasingly imperative that professionals concerned with wildlife address these issues. This working group will provide a forum for TWS members to investigate the related issues of multiple use and sustainable development of natural resources. The topics investigated will depend upon the interests of Working Group members and might include the impacts of grazing, timber harvest, agriculture, water allocation, mining, tourism, industrial development, and other activities. Both domestic and international policies and programs will be considered. The emphasis will be on identifying approaches that use natural resources in ways which are compatable with the maintenance of viable wildlife populations. The concerns of this group intersect with but are distinct from the concerns of the Wildlife Economics Working Group and the Biodiversity Working Group, also under The Wildlife Society. We anticipate that interactions with members of these Working Groups will be mutually beneficial. No formal archives are as yet in place for SUER-WG, but archives will be maintained privately and may be requested from the listowner. Automated listserver and full archive services are expected to be made available later in the year. Requests to be added or deleted to this list should be sent to SUER-REQ@NCATFYV.UARK.EDU.
