wildlife management
Controlling animal populations
Wildlife management is the practice of maintaining animal populations and their habitats, balancing ecological health with human interests.
It includes controlling population sizes through hunting regulations, protecting endangered species, restoring habitats, and managing conflicts between wildlife and people.
The state's wildlife management plan sets deer harvest quotas each season.
