American Big-Game Hunting 
great game preserves are those given in the list 
below. In these reservations is to be found to-day 
every species of large game known to the United 
States, and the proper protection of the reserva- 
tions means the perpetuating in full supply of all 
these indigenous mammals. If this care is provided 
no species of American large game need ever 
become absolutely extinct; and intelligent effort for 
game protection may well be directed toward se- 
curing through national legislation the policing 
of forest preserves by timber and game wardens.
