Aldo Leopold was the first influential forest naturalist to recognize the value of large predators in the environment. A professor at the University of Wisconsin, Leopold developed the first comprehensive management plan for the Grand Canyon and wrote the Forest Service's first fish and game management handbook. He fought hard for the protection of wilderness, asking in one essay, "of what avail are forty freedoms without a blank spot on the map?" This film explores how Leopold shaped the conservation movement in the 20th century. |
