Summary "Supplement to Animal Sanctuaries in Labrador" by William Wood is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a companion to Wood's earlier address on the topic, presented before the Commission of Conservation in 1911. It likely discusses the importance of establishing animal sanctuaries in Labrador as a means of wildlife preservation, reflecting the growing concern for environmental conservation during this period. In this supplement, William Wood elaborates on the urgent need to protect wildlife in Labrador, emphasizing the detrimental effects of rampant hunting and exploitation on various animal populations. He gathers insights from naturalists and public figures who advocate for stronger protective laws and the development of sanctuaries to serve as refuges for endangered species. Wood also proposes a leasehold system to promote responsible wildlife management, illustrating how this can be a collaborative effort between the government, private citizens, and local guardians. Through this comprehensive plan, the aim is to foster a renewed appreciation for the region's natural resources while ensuring their sustainability for future generations.
