Game Ranching - Brian Child

 Series

Scope and Contents

This series contains some of Brian Child's early research in the field of game ranching and includes the most comprehensive series of works authored by Brian Child. This collection includes much of Brian Child's formative work and contains research and data that would have been relevant to his work at Oxford University, including some information relevant to his Ph.D. on wildlife utilization. This series also includes related literature on Zimbabwe wildlife, game ranching and wildlife management that is not written by either Graham or Brian Child. Of note in this series is an extensive questionnaire and survey that was administered in the mid-1980s to game farm operators and wildlife managers in Zimbabwe - the raw data and analyses of the data are included. Furthermore, extensive information about NP9 forms are found in this collection. These National Parks and Wildlife Management forms list animals that are hunted and whether or not they are trophy exports and their estimated value primarily for foreign clients. This series is arranged alphabetically.
