Killed for Good: Hunters, Biologists, and the Ethical Paradoxes of Wildlife Management in North America

Résumé

Built over the 20th century, the North American model of wildlife management relies on a dense network of professionals and institutions who share a certain consensus on hunting as a useful, even necessary, practice for the conservation of endangered wildlife. After describing the moral economy of hunting in the United States, this article looks more specifically at biologists in wildlife management agencies to question how they participate in organizing, maintaining, and justifying the sport. Based on interviews and observations conducted in Arizona, a state with an excellent reputation for the “quality” of its game, we examine how professionals of the bios approach their vocation when it is challenged by the paradox of death as a necessity for the protection of life.
