Abstract:

North Carolina leads the country in the loss of farm and forest lands. In the last decade, over one million acres have been lost, and in their stead stand shopping centers, housing developments, parking lots and roads. With massive increases in population, especially in the area of retirees, and the ongoing destruction of the natural world, land conservation in North Carolina is crucial to its future.

Abstract:

A slam means taking everything possible, whether it is a card game, sports, such as tennis or baseball, and hunting and fishing. Hunters have slams, such as hunting all turkey species. Three squirrel species live in North Carolina - the red, gray, and fox. Marsh describes a squirrel slam to hunt these three types.
