Human dimensions of migratory game-bird hunting in Canada / Fern L. Filion, Shane A.D. Parker.: CW69-1/51E-PDF
"In this report, data from a social survey of Canadian migratory game-bird hunters provide information on a wide range of socio-economic variables. Hunting emerges as a complex activity, and the needs of hunters are seen to stem from many elements of the sport. Although the probability of harvesting birds is central to the activity, it is not the only need hunters have. Social, physical and psychological benefits accrue to game-bird hunters when a variety of needs are met, needs that may range from uncrowded hunting sites to the opportunity to hunt with close friends. Information on the human dimensions of hunting may assist managers in planning, evaluating and maintaining wildlife policies and programs"--Abstract.
