How Wild is the Wildlife in Green Criminology?

• In Event: Wildlife and Green Criminology: Deconstructing Core Concepts

Abstract

This paper examines the status of wildlife in green criminology. How well has wildlife been theorized? How clear-cut is the taken-for-granted distinction between wildlife and domesticated animals? Is the presence of domesticated animals in green criminology for the most part an unwelcome and privileged intrusion?
