It explores the way in which public attitudes to the British monarchy in relation to hunting have changed over time, reflecting the growing strength of public opposition to blood sports in the twentieth century. It will argue that the royal family's patronage of the wildlife conservation movement from the 1960s provided a new justification for hunting in a post imperialist world by the preservation of endangered species in nature reserves, but that this had very little impact on the trend of public opinion. It will highlight the paradox that while members of the royal family increasingly used wildlife conservation as a scientific justification for hunting after 1950, in terms of the general trend of public opinion such arguments had little influence and tended to work against the interests of sport hunting. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of History is the property of Wiley-Blackwell and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
