  • Herbert L. Stoddard (February 4, 1889 – November 15, 1970) was an American naturalist, conservationist, forester, wildlife biologist, ecologist, ornithologist, taxidermist, and author. In the 20th century he earned a reputation for being one of the American Southeast's most prominent conservationists and a pioneering forest ecologist. He is most well known for his seminal book, The Bobwhite Quail: Its habits, preservation, and increase (1931). He is also widely credited with advocating for the practice of prescribed fire as a tool for wildlife management. He was married to Ada Wechselberg, with whom he had one son, Herbert "Sonny" L. Stoddard Jr. The forest management method he developed with Leon Neel in Georgia's longleaf-wiregrass region is still used today. Stoddard was also a friend and colleague of Aldo Leopold and helped establish wildlife management as a profession while encouraging America to reject industrialized agriculture in favor of ecological preservation. This was codified in his book Memoirs of a Naturalist. The U.S. Bureau of Biological Survey hired Stoddard to study the habitat and life history of Red Hills quail, ensuring its sustainability in the region. In 1935 he received the William Brewster Memorial Award from the American Ornithological Society. He thereafter received the Silver Star and Letter of Commendation from Admiral Nimitz Herb for his actions during World War II.[needs verification] In 1958 Stoddard co-founded Tall Timbers Research Station.
