The reader is provided with some of the present day wildlife conservation practices and looks at and compares these with those in biblical times. The book identifies governmental agencies and private groups who are involved with this conservation effort. It also provides some information about the threats to sound wildlife conservation.

This book is written in easy to read language. It avoids the technical jargon which can often put a person to sleep. There are eight chapters along with 13 illustrations. Thirty-eight biblical texts are quoted and the reader is provided with 48 other biblical references if he desires to further examine what the bible has to say.

The present wildlife conservation practices are taken from 29 references listed in the book along with experiences while the author worked as a wildlife manager/biologist. The author has a total of 46 years working with wildlife and their living requirements.

If the reader desires to examine more closely today's wildlife conservation, six books are suggested for further reading.
