21. Conservation Strategy
Conservation is the practice of protecting wild plant and
animal species and their habitats. The goal of wildlife
conservation is to ensure that nature will be around for future
generations to enjoy and also to recognize the importance of
wildlife and wilderness for humans and other species alike.
Many nations have government agencies and NGO's
dedicated to wildlife conservation, which help to implement
policies designed to protect wildlife. Numerous independent
non-profit organizations also promote various wildlife
conservation causes.
