2.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointing,
By J Baker (MI, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ecology & Management of the Mourning Dove (Hardcover)
As an ecology student, I expected a sound scientifically written ecology and management tool. Although some selected studies were quoted, this book appears to have a political agenda. Every section has a "and here's why doves should be hunted" swing which I found to be annoying.
