Potential Wildlife Management Goals Increase population size Remove individuals from the population on a continuous basis, which requires that enough individuals be left to reproduce and replace those that were removed. Stabilize or reduce the population Combinations of these goals can be used to better manage an area

What are some game management objectives currently being used in the US to manage wildlife? The art of making land produce sustained annual crops of wild game for recreational use. Components of Game Management: o Restriction of Hunting Predator Control o Reservations of Game Land Parks, National Forests, Refuges o Artificial Replenishment Restocking, Game Farming o Environmental Controls Control of Food, Special Factors, Disease

Assignment Create a wildlife habitat area o Select an area and identify animals you would like to attract. o Develop a list of management objectives needed to attract species. o Explain how to implement management objectives. o Designate the area with signage.
