      Ecotourism and Wildlife Conservation in the Anthropocene innovates by demonstrating ecotourism as an inclusive industry positioned to mobilize all people as agents of wildlife conservation. The Anthropocene and post-1950 "Great Acceleration" of human populations have dramatically altered our planet, and ecotourism is often framed as a niche activity that has limited potential to promote conservation of regional biodiversity. By showing that ecotourism as a sustainable, educational, and nature-focused activity can occur anywhere, the sector can better support the preservation and rehabilitation of diverse environments, networks, and natural communities. Accordingly, Ecotourism and Wildlife Conservation in the Anthropocene presents a cogent argument for a new management paradigm based on broader parameters of engagement. Here, all people are empowered to co-create a better future. Concurrently, the book provides practical advice for achieving this future through the examination of relevant real-world management considerations. For students and young professionals in the wildlife conservation discipline, the book conveys the growing importance of ecotourism as a vehicle for preserving and rehabilitating threatened habitats, flora, and fauna. Frequent case studies focused on Crawford Lake provide a focal point that personifies the parameters and possibilities of ecotourism in the Anthropocene and helps to integrate the comprehensive scope of this book.
