Early wildlife managers worked with species which were important because ofbcncfits they provided to man, including food, fur and recreation; or problems between crops or livestock and wildlife. Early management dealt with many wildlife species and their habitat not yet tainted by still undeveloped pollutants. Human population had not reached to- day's magnitude with its ever increasing demands on the wild- life resource. As we entered the industrial and ~e age, the complexity of modem living gave rise to many conflicting demands for a wildlife resource. The Department of Environmental Conservation is charged with the stewardship of New York's natural resources. The responsibility for manage- ment and enhancement of our wildlife is administered through the Division of Fish and Wild- life's Bureau of Wildlife. The wildlife population enjoyed by millions of New Yorkers. How- ever, many row demands arc being made on our natural resources, and wildlife is no exception. Some of these demands compete for habitat while others involve wild- life itself. Further, some desires for use and enjoyment of wildlife may conflict with one another. Such conflicts present the wild- life manager with a challenge. A new Wildlife Program Management System (WPMS) has been developed to meet the cur- rent and future needs of wildlife opportunity LO provide informa- tion and express their opinions about potential management ac- tions to address public demands for wildlife. The Bureau of Wildlife always welcomes your input Information about WPMS is being sent LO many known wildlife re- lated groups. A citizen's guide to the Wildlife Program Manage- ment System, \Gelting Involved in Wildlife Management Deci- sions,\ is available. Interested persons arc encouraged to for- ward commenL<; on their desires for wildlife management to the Bureau. The Bureau of Wildlife dienst.

The land supposedly hasn't been developed since Ainsworth and Grecn operated a hatchery there. Since then, no one has taken a serious interest. It has been bought and sold several times for taX purposes. During purchase negotiations, Carter lcamed of the former hatch- ery, and buying the land became an obsession.

Carter and his helpers have knocked down thick brush and plantcd trees, grass. and have built a sLOne road and bridge. In a few weeks, he says a second pond will be dug out by a bulldozer.
