A Dangerous Cult

By: Ted Williams

Ted Williams has taken Dead Aim at the wildlife felons who embrace “Compassionate Conservation” providing salve to one of the leading sources of mortality for endangered species, particularly those inhabiting island environments. Back in the 1990s I funded ISLAND CONSERVATION, and I hope more philanthropies do so. These mindless Compassionateers are another cretinous emanation of urban America, Australia and UK that has been so adversely destructive of species recovery efforts. Compassionate Conservation is neither compassionate-it is devastating to native flora and fauna- and it is certainly not conservation; it is devastation to endangered species. Urbanites like rapping their lexicology in benevolence when in reality it is deplorable and damaging.

About the Author

Ted Williams is often called the Dean of wildlife Writers. Ted Williams detests baseball but is as obsessed with fishing as was the “real” (or, as he much prefers, “late”) Ted Williams. What he finds really discouraging is when readers meet him in person and still think he’s the frozen ballplayer. The surviving Ted writes full time on fish and wildlife issues.
