More about the book
Everyday a dirty war is being waged against dozens of threatened and endangered wildlife species. Because of an enormously lucrative black market in wildlife and wildlife parts, poaching has become a serious threat to the animals' survival. Marc Reisner offers a firsthand account of how undercover game wardens operate: the elaborate covers they devise, the meticulous groundwork of subterfuge and lies necessary to pull off a successful sting, and the heart-pounding dangers they face as they impersonate smugglers and big-game hunters or infiltrate gangs of vicious hillbillies poaching anything from alligators to gamefish. -- from jacket
