Abstract
  • The purpose of this paper is to provide resource managers with a compilation of background information useful in the development of guidelines and/or management strategies designed to minimize the disruptive impacts of petroleum exploration and development on wildlife in wilderness environments. The paper is a review of literature, and describes: 1) the general sequence of operations and types of activity involved in petroleum exploration, development, and production; 2) the environmental disruptions potentially resulting from these activities; 3) the impacts of these disruptions on wildlife; and 4) mitigation planning and general approaches for minimizing the adverse impacts. The section on impacts consists of a detailed outline/index referring to an annotated bibliography of pertinent literature on impacts of various types of human activities on wildlife. The major wildlife groups discussed are ungulates, carnivores, waterfowl, and raptors.
