"Wildlife management is the management process influencing interactions among and between wildlife, its habitats and people to achieve predefined impacts."
The practice of managing populations of wild animals, including monitoring their numbers and behavior, and implementing measures to protect them.
"Wildlife management draws on disciplines such as mathematics, chemistry, biology, ecology, climatology, and geography to gain the best results."
"Wildlife management aims to halt the loss in the Earth's biodiversity, by taking into consideration ecological principles such as carrying capacity, disturbance and succession, and environmental conditions."
"Techniques can include reforestation, pest control, nitrification and denitrification, irrigation, coppicing, and hedge laying."
"In his 1933 book Game Management, Aldo Leopold defined it as 'the art of making land produce sustained annual crops of wild game for recreational use.'"
"Pest control is the control of real or perceived pests and can be used for the benefit of wildlife, farmers, gamekeepers, or human safety."

"The UK government also gives farmers subsidies through the Countryside Stewardship Scheme to improve the conservation value of their farms."
"Most wildlife biologists are concerned with the conservation and improvement of habitats; although rewilding is increasingly being undertaken."
"Ecological principles such as carrying capacity, disturbance and succession, and environmental conditions are taken into consideration in wildlife management."
"Techniques can include reforestation, pest control, nitrification and denitrification, irrigation, coppicing, and hedge laying."
"The main goal of wildlife conservation is to halt the loss in the Earth's biodiversity."
"Gamekeeping is the management or control of wildlife for the well-being of game and may include the killing of other animals which share the same niche or predators to maintain a high population of more profitable species."
"The primary factors influencing wildlife management are the interactions among and between wildlife, its habitats, and people."
"Wildlife management attempts to balance the needs of wildlife with the needs of people using the best available science."
"Wildlife management practices in the United States are often implemented by a governmental agency to uphold a law, such as the Endangered Species Act."
"The Forestry Commission in the United Kingdom is one of the government bodies involved in wildlife management."
