"Based on detailed ethnographic and experimental research. Culture and Resource Conflict finds that Native American and European American hunters and fisherman have differing approaches - or mental models - with respect to fish and game, and that these differences lead to misunderstanding, stereotyping, and conflict. Menominees view the practice of hunting and fishing for sport as a sign of a lack of respect for nature. Whites, on the other hand define respect for nature more in terms of resource management and conservation."
