This presentation provides an introduction to wildlife by defining the term and describing its global distribution. It notes that while wildlife traditionally referred to undomesticated animals, the definition has expanded and now includes all undomesticated plants and animals that live naturally in an area. It then outlines some of the key benefits of wildlife, including economic benefits from ecotourism and maintaining biodiversity. The presentation concludes by discussing some major threats facing wildlife, such as habitat loss and pollution, and the importance of conservation efforts like national parks in protecting ecosystems and wildlife.

benefit has occurred many times all over the planet, and
has a major impact on the environment, both positive and
negative.
o Wildlife can be found in all . Deserts,
forests, rain forests, plains, grasslands, and other areas

11. Threats to wildlife
Wildlife everywhere on the earth is under threat of extinction
and struggling hard for survival.
1. Habitat loss :
 Population growth, fast industrialisation , urbanisation and modernisation have all
contributed to a large-scale destruction of natural habitat of plants and animals.
2. Pollution:
 Air, water, soil and noise pollution of the magnitude and toxicity never seen before
is the major factor.
 Natural habitats have been destroyed or damaged by activities such as the
indiscriminate use of synthetic materials, release of radiations and oil spills in the
sea, generation of effluents and wastes of various kinds and toxicity, and their
unscientific disposal.
3. Indiscriminate hunting:
 Indiscriminate killing and poaching of wild animals for food, horn, fur, tusk etc. has resulted
in reduction and even extinction of many wild species.
4. Introduction of exotic species:
 Many native species have known to disappear and their existence is under threat
because of the introduction of exotic and alien species.

14. National parks
