Download or read book Zoology Wild Life Conservation And Management written by Dr. Kamal Saini and published by AG PUBLISHING HOUSE (AGPH Books). This book was released on 2022-12-27 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wildlife management is a multidisciplinary field concerned with the conservation of both nonthreatened domesticated animals & game species and endangered, threatened, and candidate species and their ecosystems. Research in the fields of wildlife ecology, education, management, and extension is given equal weight in the Wildlife Management program's curriculum. Ecological concepts are taken into account in wildlife wildlife management, including habitat preservation and control, carrying capacity, predator control, reintroducing extinct species, reforestation, capturing and redistributing surplus animals, and managing "desirable" and "undesirable" species. Protecting our wildlife is an investment in the quality of life for future generations. Harvesting natural resources, like fishing, hunting, trapping, and logging, as well as non-consumptive hobbies like bird photography, watching, and hiking, are all examples of conservation. The conservation community must strike a balance between the needs of people and those of animals. Protection of endangered and vulnerable species is an essential part of wildlife conservation. The term "conservation" may refer to the practise of preserving or protecting natural resources via methods other than direct consumption. It is possible to manage an area by not doing anything at all, or it is possible to conserve the habitat or the ecosystem by intervening in it. Conservation of forests, for instance, may be achieved by not interfering with their natural development via activities like cutting down trees, grazing, or tree planting.

Download or read book The Economics of Biodiversity Conservation written by K. N. Ninan and published by Earthscan. This book was released on 2012 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic valuation of biodiversity and ecosystem services is possibly the most powerful tool for halting the loss of biodiversity while maintaining incomes and livelihoods. Yet rarely have such approaches been applied to tropical forest ?hotspots?, which house the vast majority of the planets plant and animal species. This ground-breaking work is the most comprehensive and detailed examination of the economics of environmental valuation and biodiversity conservation to date. Focusing on the Western Ghats of India, one of the top biodiversity hotspots in the world, this volume looks at a cross-section of local communities living within or near sanctuaries and reserve forests such as coffee growers, indigenous people and farmers-cum-pastoralists to assess the use and non-use values that people derive from tropical forests. It also looks at the extent of their dependence on forests for various goods and services, and examines their perceptions and attitudes towards biodiversity conservation and wildlife protection. The book concludes with an assessment of the institutional alternatives and policies for promoting biodiversity conservation through economic valuation methods.

Download or read book Recovering Biodiversity in Indian Forests written by G. Vishwanatha Reddy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-24 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates how varying levels of human disturbance manifested through different management regimes influence composition, richness, diversity and abundance of key mammal, bird and plant species, even within ecologically similar habitats. Based on our results, we show the critical importance of the ‘wildlife preservation’ approach for effective biodiversity conservation. The study also provides examples of a practical application of rigorous methods of quantitative sampling of different plant and animal taxa as well as human influences, thus serving as a useful manual for protected area managers. Protected areas of various kinds have been established in India with the goal of arresting decline in, and to provide for, recovery of biodiversity and ecosystem services. A model that targets ‘wildlife preservation’ under state ownership is practiced across the country. However, forests in India are under intensive human pressure and varying levels of protection; therefore, protected areas may also experience open-access resource use, a model that is being aggressively advocated as a viable alternative to ‘preservationism’. We have evaluated the conservation efficacy of alternative forest management models by quantifying levels of biodiversity under varied levels of access, resource extraction and degree of state-sponsored protection in the Nagarahole forest landscape of southwestern India.
