Title: (Optional) Describe the steps in establishing and managing wildlife habitats.
Course: Introduction to Natural Resources and Ecology Systems (18504) > Section: Managing Wildlife Resources

Description should include

- identifying the target population
- identifying survival requirements and sources (e.g., food, water, cover, a place to rear young)
- climate-resilience, habitat design and invasive species mitigation
- management techniques for sustained survival and population growth.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What is the target population?
- What are the survival requirements for the target population?
- What are the food and water requirements of the selected wildlife species?
- What type of cover/nesting area does the wildlife species require?
- How was the wildlife habitat established? What are the initial population numbers found in the wildlife habitat?
- What are the basic needs of wildlife?
- What are the different types of wildlife habitats?
- What benefits do wildlife habitats provide humans?
- How can understanding key influences/laws shape the management and harvesting of wildlife species?
- How can maximum sustained yield, optimum yield, and adaptive resource management be used to manage and harvest wildlife species? What are their advantages and disadvantages?
- What are key limitations and concerns about reintroduction or relocation projects as a management tool?
