Consumptive forms of wildlife tourism (hunting, shooting and fishing) have become a topic of interest – both to the tourism industry, in terms of destinations seeking to establish or grow this sector, and to other stakeholders such as environmental organisations, animal-rights groups, and the general public. Hunting tourism, in particular, has come under fire with accusations that it is contributing to the demise of some species. Practices such as "canned hunting" (within fenced safari parks) or the use of hounds are described as unethical, and fishing tourism too has attracted recent negative publicity as it is said to be cruel. At the same time, however, many peripheral and indigenous communities around the world are strategising how to capitalise on consumptive forms of wildlife tourism. This book addresses a range of contentious issues facing the consumptive wildlife tourism sector across a number of destinations in Europe, North America, Africa, India, Arabia and Oceania. Practices such as baited bear hunting, trophy hunting of threatened species, and hunting for conservation are debated, along with the impact of this type of tourism on indigenous communities and on wider societies. Research on all aspects of "consumptive wildlife tourism" is included, which for the purposes of the book is defined to include all tourism that involves the intended killing of wildlife for sport purposes, and may include the harvest of wildlife products. This includes, among others, recreational hunting, big-game hunting and safari operations, traditional/indigenous hunting, game-bird shooting, hunting with hounds, freshwater angling and saltwater game fishing etc. This is the first book to specifically address tourist aspects of consumption of wildlife. It will appeal to tourism and recreation academics and students, tourism industry operators, community tourism planners and wildlife managers.

Excerpt from Fishing and Shooting Qui s'excuse, s'accuse; and yet I feel that an apology is needed for the production of another Book on Sport. But at least I can say that this volume makes no pretence to compete, either in description or instruction, with other well-known works. It is an attempt merely to give in a light, and I hope readable way, the thoughts, experiences, and suggestions of one who, by this time, has had a fair opportunity of taking mental notes. If I may in this connection quote Walton - a long way after - it would be to say that, in regard to this book, "I wish the reader to take notice, that in writing it I have made myself a recreation of a recreation; and that it might prove so to him, and not read dull and tediously, I have in several places mix't (not any scurrility, but) some innocent, harmless mirth, of which, if thou be severe, sowre-complexioned man, then I here disallow thee to be a competent judge."

Frontispiece Pat has challenged and battled every hazard and fury of the most powerful river on Earth. 10 Toms famed double-nose got an outstanding workout that sunny afternoon. 20 A scene, I told myself, as ageless as Gods wrath. 21 May young eyes see again cool dawn mists. 26 And long skeins of wood ducks woven against sunsets. 27 Field trial Champion Eugenes Ghost winner-in-action at U. S. Open, 1922. One of setterdoms all-time greats. 48 What canine neuroses, inhibitions, complexes, and allergies lurk in bird dog make-ups 134 With a touch of sadness I see this old life afield slipping away. 135 Hal has crossed over the riverso let my Ahai ring on him. 178 God bless a day and dog like this. . . . 186 viii. FOREWORD: FOR a period so protracted as to visibly shrink ones life expectancy, Nash Buckingham has been promising to take me hunting and or fishing to some of those fabulous old gunning and angling paradises about which he writes. Nash made the initial proposal soon after I had first read De Shootinest Genfman. For die benefit of those coming in late, this establishes the period as approximately the Glacial Age. During intervening eons, Nash has reaffirmed that solemn pledge. While partaking of Mingos hot-cat-an-taters at Doug Stampers Mermaid Tavern, for instance, he has lured on my panting novices hopes with oral paintings of waterfowling as practiced of yore at Beaver Dam, or, in more modern vein, at Section 16 along Bayou Lagrues pin oaks and ricelands. He has led me up into the high hills and shown me the Seven Temptations of quailing at the Ames plantation, Hugh Bucking hams farm, or in Bob Carriers plush coverts. Listening rapdy, Fve found myself actually changing into shooting togs at table, while Mingos shrimp gumbo, meandering its spoons rim, registered chameleon-like deposits along my necktie or in the upper-tier creases of my waistcoat. Manys the day, a much younger Paul basking in the sunshine of a benign and understanding Gamaliels smile, I have in minds eye centered a high-flying brace of greenheads, scored repeated rights and lefts on bobwhites zooming beyond Ethel and Edgar ...

Peter Hathaway Capstick first earned a name as an outdoor writer in the pages of such magazines as Guns & Ammo, Petersen’s Hunting, The American Hunter, and Outdoor Life. In Last Horizons, the first of a two-volume collection of his hunting, fishing, and shooting tales, Capstick shares twenty-four stories of his keen eye and steady hand with rifle, shotgun, bow, and typewriter. The critically acclaimed successor to Hemingway and Robert Ruark repeatedly put himself in harm’s way to write about close scrapes with his trademark wit and dash. He tells what it’s like to be in the path of an express train with Horns—the Cape buffalo; describes the heart-stopping sensation of sharing the immediate bush with several sickle-clawed lions that most certainly were prone to argue; and recounts his adventures bow-fishing for exotic species in the piranha-filled rivers of Brazil. Featuring finely rendered drawings by famous wildlife artist Dino Paravano, Capstick’s experiences on five continents, painfully gained—and almost lost—with the most dangerous of game, are the yardsticks against which most modern exotic and hunting adventures are gauged. “No one since Hemingway (with the possible exception of Ruark) has written on these subjects with such literary gusto.”—Kirkus Reviews

Excerpt from Facts and Useful Hints Relating to Fishing and Shooting: Being a Collection of Various Methods for Capturing Birds, Beasts, Vermin, and Fish; Together With a Great Variety of Recipes of All Kinds Useful to the Fisherman and Sportsman; To Which Is Added a List of Recipes for the Management and Cure of Dogs in Di If success be the measure of merit, we should feel much flattered. It but seldom falls to the lot of any work that the demand for it should exceed its first issue. "Facts and Useful Hints relating to Fishing and Shooting" is of the fortunate class. Two large editions have been exhausted in five years, and now we are writing a few words of introduction to our third. We have in this issue departed in no wise from the scheme with which we started. Information under the different heads has been amplified, and some erroneous matter dispensed with, whilst many fresh and important articles have been added. Our pleasant task is now ended; and whilst we write finish to our work we venture to express a hope that even the most skilled sportsman may find something to learn from "Facts and Useful Hints relating to Fishing and Shooting."
