- W17278370 abstract "There has been a large push to integrate more science and math into the classroom so that our children can compete in the world market, which is seeing an ever-increasing population of highly educated students from other countries. We read everyday in the newspapers the statistics of slipping academic achievement of American students compared to that of students around the world. So, the push for a more strenuous academic curriculum in American schools should be good for our students and for the nation. With a fi nite number of school hours, however, the advancement of 1 subject over another means a reduction in emphasis on some subjects. And what happens to those important subject areas, such as natural resources, that have never really been taught in the schools? What is lacking in our children’s education is an understanding of our natural world, with wildlife studies being a subject about which most people are especially ignorant. The people who, every year, are gored by bison in Yellowstone National Park are victims of such a lack of education. Most of the victims of bison att acks thought the animals tame enough to pet. There are also people who live on the cusp of civilization to be closer to nature; yet, they complain when deer and raccoons visit their yards. We as a society think of ourselves as separate from the natural world, including wildlife, but this only causes confl ict. As wildlife professionals, we could just write off our children’s ignorance about wildlife and how to avoid human–wildlife confl icts as a form of job security. Their ignorance will always produce complaints that we could take care of. Our time, however, would be bett er spent on other activities, such as introducing the next generation to outdoor activities or monitoring wildlife populations. Jacob Blasi" @default.
