VMD 512: Zoo/Wild Animal Breeding, Management, Nutrition and Health Care (1+1)

NATURAL RESERVES

• Various natural reserves existing in the wildlife regions provide the complete protection for the wild animals belonging to the different species.
• Many times, human interventions are made for positive purposes in order to give more protection to the wild fauna and flora. It is to be understood that various natural reserves hardly comprise one percent of the earth’s land areas.
• Most of the other areas are used for production of food, timber, pulpwood or other raw materials. Hence, in all these areas, wildlife conservation related measures need to be strengthened and if necessary, human intervention (Broader land use strategy) may be made in order to enrich the protective measures for the welfare of wild fauna and flora.
