Introduction 
ects specialists, county extension agents, and officials con- 
nected with State Sane niion departments are frequentiy asked to assist 
aay 
land-use vrovlems. Private landowners are showing an increasing int 
in improving their properties for wildlife, not cnly because of the re- 
creational pleasure ana enjoyment they and their friends gain from associa- 
tion with wild animals, but also through recognition of the esthe 
economic weaith that the presence of wildlife contributes to the community. 
While many Feceral and State wildlife-restoration projects are under wa 
to rehabilitate desirable game and fur species, through the }¢ j 
refuges, estnubdlishment of manesement areas, and veettvenens C 
concitions, a great part of our wildlife nopulation is dependent 
existence upon the acticn of private individuals. In response to 
requests for improvement vlans, an outiinc for planning wildlife x EE 
Ment has been prepared ani is hore presented. As it is impracti pees to 
Set forth specific managenznt plans, however, without a detailed techni 
study of areas uncer consideration, this leaflet suggests aaa tha
