game management
Conserving huntable species
Game management refers to controlling the pace, strategy, and resources during competitive play to secure victory.
In sports, it means making tactical decisions—running out the clock, managing timeouts, or protecting a lead: Their game management in the fourth quarter was flawless.
In video games, it extends to inventory systems, stamina bars, and strategic resource allocation.
Wildlife management also uses the term for regulating animal populations through hunting seasons and habitat control.
