How can wildlife be conserved?
We can conserve wild life by following ways:
- Maintenance of essential ecological processes and life-support systems.
- Preservation of genetic diversity.
- Sustainable utilization of species and ecosystems.
- Hunting should be banned
- We must not use the products made by animals' body parts, like elephant ivory and tiger skins. As a result there will be no hunting going on.
- Government have to promote national parks centuries and deservers
In many (but not all) cases hunting actually contributes to wildlife conservation through licensing and equipment fees that are dedicated to conservation. Additionally, many of the biggest conservation organizations started out (and still are to some degree) as hunters interested in conserving game species. Ducks Unlimited is a good example.
