Wildlife watching and tourism : a study on the benefits and risks of a fast growing tourism activity ant its impact on species

Description:
Wildlife watching activities play a significant and growing part in the tourism industry, and create direct and indirect economic benefits for many countries and communities - especially amongst developing countries. This form of tourism can certainly make important contributions to conservation by raising awareness of the animals observed and their habitats, by creating revenues for conservation and by creating jobs for local communities.
