They do not own the wildlife, but they do possess the right to exclude outsiders from entering their lands to hunt, fish, or trap. To that extent, they enjoy special privileges with respect to the wildlife. For many landowners, hunting is a valuable use of their land and an important revenue source. That revenue from hunters stays with the landowner, even though the animals being hunted (as explained in chapter 2) are the property of the people collectively or of the state as trustee.","PeriodicalId":52446,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Wildlife Law and Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90686531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The landholdings of the federal government are massive— some 30 percent of the nation’s surface—including vast expanses of vital wildlife habitat. What is the legal status of the wildlife on these lands? Who has the legal authority to manage it? And what are the rules currently in place? These are the questions taken up in this chapter in the context of the four largest categories of federal lands: the wildlife refuges run by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the variously named holdings of the National Park Service, the national forests, and the diverse lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Together these four categories comprise more than 96 percent of all federal landholdings. The wildlife laws applicable to these lands differ among the four categories and thus call for separate consideration. Before exploring them, however, it is useful to understand the basic legal framework that applies on nearly all federal lands.","PeriodicalId":52446,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Wildlife Law and Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81486751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They also possess extensive property rights in land and natural resources, often arising from legal sources quite different from rights held by non-Indians. The powers of tribes over their reservations are reasonably well known. Less familiar and more contentious are the vested rights they possess to take fish and game at places outside their reservations. These off-reservation rights and their implications for resource management have given rise to recurrent legal disputes dealing with the precise scope of the tribal rights and the complex ways tribal powers fit together with state powers, both on and off reservations and over tribal members as well as others.","PeriodicalId":52446,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Wildlife Law and Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77081560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Jefferies","doi":"10.1080/13880292.2018.1547867","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13880292.2018.1547867","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract Whale populations are exposed to a suite of contemporary threats, including by-catch, ship strikes, habitat degradation, and climate change. Of these threats, climate change presents the most challenging management dilemma because it pressures whale populations directly (e.g., by altering habitat suitability) and indirectly (e.g., by increasing disease transmission and exposure to toxicants, by affecting prey abundance, and by exacerbating other threats). There is also an emerging scientific understanding of how healthy whale populations constitute an important biological component of the climate system and contribute to climate change mitigation. The International Whaling Commission (“IWC”), which is the primary international organization dedicated to whale conservation and management, has investigated and studied climate change but has failed to develop a commensurate management response. Conversely, parallel developments in international wildlife conservation and management evince support for an integrated and holistic ecosystem approach (“EA”) and urge the immediate development of climate-adaptive measures. The EA has been operationalized in prominent legal instruments and through various management techniques, including marine protected areas (“MPAs”). In view of observed and predicted effects of climate change on whales, this article proposes a new approach to designating and protecting whale sanctuaries at the IWC that better aligns with a contemporary understanding of the EA and MPAs, and that can advance the IWC’s institutional transition towards climate-informed modernized management. This proposed innovation is tested for its legal permissibility and political feasibility, and the analysis concludes that improving the IWC’s regulatory functionality remains a crucial conservation objective.","PeriodicalId":52446,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Wildlife Law and Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86087785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
