Answers 100% Solved
What is wildlife? Answer-The fundemental legal doctrine regarding wildlife in the United
States implies that states- and in some cases federal government - have authority over wildlife,
not landowners.m "wildlife" is not universally defined; it changes with the viewpoint of the user
(Caughley and Sinclair 1994)



In general, the wildlife profession considers wildlife to be free-living, wild animals (excluding
feral or exotic species) of major significance to humans. This definition includes the associated
plants and lower animals (micro organisms) because wildlife habitats are interlocked and cannot
be considered separately.




What is the difference between active and passive management? Answer-Active
management: Actively does something to the population such as hunting or translocation to
increase/decrease size or altering the habitat to benefit/detriment the population. Other
examples include predator control & habitat improvements (to reduce neonatal mortality).



Inactive management: Inactive management instead, aims to minimize external influences on
populations and habitat by managing humans rather than animals. (Ex. National parks).




Passive management: The decision to do nothing is still a management decision, known as
passive management. All populations are managed in some way.




What are the four different goals of wildlife management? Answer-Increase population

Decrease population

Harvest for sustained yield (game animals for hunting)
