With thirty-one species of ducks recorded in Minnesota, twenty being common migrants, the need is great; for realizing our rich heritage, conserving our habitat, knowing the ducks, and finally plying our resources to this end---as the philosopher Montaigne wrote: "Why may not a waterfowl say thus: 'All the parts of the universe I have interest in; the earth serves to walk upon, the sun to light me; the stars have guiding influence upon me; I have advantage by the winds and such by the waters; there is nothing that yon heavenly room looks upon so favorably as me. I am the darling of Nature: it is not man that keeps, lodges, and serves me?"

Between 1800 to 1890 the free roaming buffalo in North America were reduced from an estimated 60 million to fewer than 20 wild bison in the U.S. " Now there are over 17,000 bison living under varying degrees of supervision ranging from private herds to restrictive zoos to large parks where the animals can again roam freely. This book is an attempt to present a survey of the decimation of the bison; to consider the major factors that have influenced the growth of the buffalo population since 1990." From the book's preface.
