The study explores the evolution of conservationalist ideas in South Africa, highlighting how these concepts emerged as a response to significant changes in natural pastures due to the Cape's rise as a wool exporter. By examining the interplay between environmental changes and societal attitudes, it offers a comprehensive view of the environmental history in settler societies, making a significant contribution to understanding the historical context of conservation efforts in the region.
