Description
The Internet presents a unique opportunity to present and promote the principles, methods, and techniques of wildlife damage management to the viewing public or to select audiences, such as elementary to secondary students. This paper describes how different software programs (Macromedia Flash™ and Director™,) and different techniques (Java Applets, scripts, and animated Gif images) are used to create an interactive and visual experience on the Internet. This paper suggests elements in web design that are attractive to youth audiences and describes the general limitations of web-based education.
