Herbert Stoddard, one of the most important southern conservationists of the twentieth century, developed a method of forest management in the longleaf-wiregrass region of Georgia that is still widely practiced today. Also known as an authority on the bobwhite quail, Stoddard advocated the reintroduction of fire as a land management tool, at a time when powerful forest interests considered burns to be a plague on the land. Along with his friend and colleague Aldo Leopold, Stoddard also helped to establish the profession of wildlife management, and he was among the first to critique from an ecological perspective the nation's move toward industrialized agriculture.

Excerpt from The Bobwhite Quail: It's Propagation, Preservation and Increase on Georgia Farms The problem, in its broad sense, is not isolated to any locality or subdivision of our country. In the origin of wild life Nature worked out a scheme of placement for the several species of birds and animals. In their respective allocations they thrived, multiplied and were abundant. On Martha's Vineyard Island, in Massachusetts, the last heath hen on earth disappeared May 9, 1931. The specie, once abundant, has gone to final absolute extinction.
