To get this threat into perspective Professor Cloudsley-Thompson traces the history of man's impact on African animals from the Roman games, where they were put to fight men or other animals, to their display as a tourist attraction in the wider arena of a National Park. The book abounds with extracts of particular interest from the works of the great hunters and early explorers and detials the methods and causes which have depleted the great herds of animals which once roamed the plains of Africa. He concludes with an urgent plea for the conservation of this wonderful heritage of wild life before it reaches the point of extinction." Chapters include: The impact of man; Traditional Afican hunting methods; The changing scene; Firearms and human settlement; Behaviour and migration; Reactions of big game to man; Pachyderms; Carnivores; Ruminants and reptiles; Game conservation. Appendices list "some of the more famous big game hunters and explorers of eastern Africa, and "biomass of the main wild mammalian species in a number of areas." .
