Monitoring Wildlife Populations: Wildlife managers continuously monitor the

habitat. This provides the data needed to set hunting regulations and
determine if other wildlife management practices are needed to conserve
wildlife species.Habitat Improvement: As succession occurs, the change in
habitat affects the type and number of wildlife the habitat can support.
Wildlife managers may cut down or burn forested areas to promote new
growth and slow down the process of succession. This practice enables them
to increase the production of certain wildlife species.Hunting Regulations:
Hunting regulations protect habitats and preserve animal populations.
Regulations include setting daily and seasonal time limits, bag limits, and
legal methods for taking wildlife.
