Private landowners are often the best stewards of our land.
Iain Robertson s history of the salmon fisheries in Scotland is a rare and fascinating look at the conservation of a natural resource over hundreds of years. It is a country in transition, a country in the midst of uncertainties. The black rhino was once plentiful in Africa, but government efforts to protect them failed and their numbers dwindled from 65,000 in 1970 to 2,400 just 25 years later. They are not even true buffalo. In fact, no other mammal population in Africa has crashed so spectacularly.
