indigenous wildlife
Local wild animals
Indigenous wildlife refers to animal species native to a particular region—those that evolved or established themselves there without human introduction.
Conservation efforts often prioritize indigenous wildlife over invasive species: The park protects indigenous wildlife from habitat destruction.
The term emphasizes belonging and natural presence, distinguishing native fauna from imported or domesticated animals.
