Following graduation from a fisheries and wildlife management course at the University of Guelph in 1963, he journeyed to northwestern Canada (especially Saskatchewan and Alberta) to help manage wild populations of animals important to Native and “white” residents of several northern areas. He initiated long-term research projects to allow an improved understanding of complex wildlife relationships necessary for management. He also researched and managed several nuisance/problem wildlife situations. He has authored numerous publications on wildlife management in both technical and popular literature. He is a member of the Wildlife Society, the Saskatchewan Archaeological Society and the Ottawa Field-Naturalists’ Club (CFN). His interests include nature, outdoor living, hunting and fishing, northern peoples and their histories.view less
