Wildlife Conservation (English)

Wildlife Conservation refers to regulation of wild animals and plants in ways to provide for their continued existance. The State Department recognizes that preventing animal extinction and ensuring the continued existence of their habitats is a global cataclysm. Some of these efforts are establishment of sanctuaries and controls on hunting, use of land, importation of exotic species, pollution, and use of pesticides. Programming for guest speakers and culture best fit this collection.
