Description
This paper explores how the United States federal government has historically supported animal agribusiness to the detriment of native ecosystems and wildlife. It focuses on agricultural subsidies and state-funded predator persecution, with an emphasis on the historical conflict between gray wolves and ranchers in America. This paper examines the ecological consequences of agricultural policy in the U.S. and potential solutions to these issues that account for the needs of humans, wildlife, and the environment.
