[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]AMERICA’S WILDLIFE VALUES\u00a0<\/em>builds upon and expands earlier research efforts to understand public values toward wildlife.<\/p>\n

“Wildlife Values in the West”<\/a><\/em><\/u>\u00a0– a long term research program\u00a0to assess and monitor public values toward wildlife in the western United States was launched in 2002. The initiative was\u00a0led by the Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (WAFWA) Human Dimensions Committee in cooperation with Colorado State University (CSU). The project\u00a0was also designed to provide critical information about attitudes toward key regional and state-specific wildlife issues and about current and future demand for participation in wildlife-related recreation activities.\u00a0WAFWA and CSU\u00a0also led a series of follow-up initiatives intended to enhance the application of\u00a0wildlife values for agency decision-making and public outreach.<\/p>\n
