Dean Lueck, an economics professor from Indiana University Maurer School of Law, provides an economic perspective on the governance of wildlife while exploring the historical transformation of human and animals interactions over the past 20,000 years.
Lueck highlighted the role of state wildlife agencies in the United States as a solution to the problem of managing species in private land holdings.
He concludes with the potential for “resurrection biology” to bring back extinct species and touching on the debate surrounding marketing for wildlife products as a way of incentivizing conversation.
