In this paper, Adriana draws from her master's research on wolf culling as a state response to caribou declines to explore how tensions between resource extraction and ecological protection shape environmental solutions. She writes:

"In this paper, I draw from my master's research on wolf culling as a state response to caribou declines to explore how tensions between resource extraction and ecological protection shape environmental solutions. Insights from this work continue to inspire my doctoral project on the regulatory politics of endangered species governance in the United States."

Please join us in congratulating Adriana on this outstanding accomplishment!
