Summary
Do hunting and fishing lead to the development of environmental virtues? In Hunting, Fishing, and Environmental Virtue, Charles List provides an ethical defense of field sports, arguing that there is a connection between them and conservation. The book examines environmental virtues present in the conservation practiced by Theodore Roosevelt and Aldo Leopold; considers arguments frequently deployed against hunting and fishing; and examines the changes needed to incorporateand reinvigorate the connection between field sports and virtue.
