Like #forests, #wildlife is also a #national #resource, which not only helps in maintaining the #ecological balance but is also beneficial from #economic, #recreational and #aesthetic points of view. There was a time when #human #interference was minimum the number of #wild #animals was quite high and there was no problem of their protection or conservation. But, with the expansion of #agriculture, settlement, #industrial and other #developmental activities and mainly due to greed of #man, the number of wild animals gradually became lesser and lesser. With the result that several #species of animals have become #extinct and several, others are on the verge of being so.
#Deforestation is also one of the main reasons for the loss of #wildlife. Mass killings of #wild #animals for their #meat, #bones, #fur, #teeth, #hair, #skin, etc., are going on throughout the #world. Therefore, the need for wildlife conservation has now become a necessity.
#Population #growth, #expansion of agriculture and #livestock raising #building of #cities and #roads, and #pollution are among the many pressures on the natural habitat of wildlife. Along with illegal #hunting, #habitat reduction and its #degradation has threatened the bio-#diversity of the regions where these are rampant.
#Preservation of wildlife does not mean a blanket protection to all #faunal and #floral #species; rather, it implies a proper, #judicious control over the multiplication of #plants and# animals, which interact together to provide a proper #environment to man whose very existence is in peril today.
Due to the irrational use of natural and #biotic resources of the #earth in the past, most of the wildlife has been #destroyed beyond retrieval. It is our urgent duty to protect the #natural splendor of #ecosystems and to evolve a system of co-existence with every living creature upon the earth.
Although must countries of the world are very particular regarding conservation of wildlife, the number of wild animals is reducing day by day. World Wild Life Fund is the international agency, which is doing commendable work in promoting the protection of wildlife. There are national agencies also engaged in the conservation of wildlife.
