Excerpt from Wildlife Portfolio of the Western National Parks Wildlife - its study, conservation, and management - has become im portant in public consciousness of the outdoors. Making pictures of wildlife is a popular hobby. Many visitors to our national parks go to these places with photography as an objective. Here all animal life is protected, and the rifle, shotgun, and trap are unknown. Picture makers, 'on the contrary, whether young or old, expert or novice, armed with the simplest or most elaborate equipment, are welcomed to hunt. As a standard for camera enthusiasts and for the enjoyment of others who simply like to look, the National Park Service is pleased to present this portfolio of pictures. Most of them have been made by that pioneer in the field of wildlife study, Joseph S. Dixon, who has also contributed the text of interesting life-history facts and anecdotes of his experiences with wild animals. We believe that park visitors will profit from this work of Mr. Dixon and the others who have kindly allowed use of their prize photographs. This book, as well as the financial assistance that made many of the photographs possible, is due to the inspiration and generosity of the late George M. Wright, founder and first Chief of the Wildlife Division of the National Park Service (now the Section on National Park Wildlife. Fish and Wildlife Service).

Excerpt from Fauna of the National Parks of the United States: A Preliminary Survey of Faunal Relations in National Parks This is the first of a series of reports dealing with the vertebrate fauna of the national parks to be prepared in the Branch of Educa tion and Research of the National Park Service, Department of the Interior. In addition to treating of the vertebrate natural history of the parks still requiring basic surveys, the reports will cover research in one branch of the science that is the very foundation upon which the National Park Service is built, namely, the preservation of the native values of wilderness life. For it is this ideal above all else which differentiates this service from its sister services in government. The rescue of this prized heritage of the American people has created unique problems in road construction, landscape architecture, education, and administration, but in no field are the complications deeper and their solutions more obscure than in conservation of the wild-life resources. The parks' faunas have been extremely sensitive to the influences of civilization. The present paper details the con elusions of a general investigation of the vertebrate life of the national parks with emphasis on these human relationships.
