Nonconsumptive outdoor recreation has increased greatly in recent years, and there is growing concern about the effects of such activities on wildlife and wildlife habitats. Unfortunately, information concerning these effects is scare and widely scattered. To stimulate research and assist resource planners and managers in utilizing available information, an annotated bibliography of human-wildlife interactions is provided. The report reviews interactions between wildlife and humans participating in nonconsumptive outdoor recreation activities. Also provided are indexes to authors, species, keywords and geographic regions; an annotated list of keywords; and a list of bibliographies on related topics.

A banding program for mourning doves (Zenaida macroura) was conducted by the 14 Central Management Unit (CMU) States and the U.S. FIsh and Wildlife Service during 1967-74. Banding and recovery records, as well as data from annual call-count and harvest surveys, were subsequently analyzed by a subcommittee of the Central Migratory Shore and Upland Game Bird Technical Committee. This paper presents information on mourning dove habitat, hunting regulations, and harvest in the CMU; distribution and derviation of band recoveries in and from CMU; distribution of mourning dove harvest in Mexico and Central America; chronology of migration; survival and recovery rates; effects of hunting on CMU mourning dove populations; and indirect nationwide mourning dove population estimates.
