CONSERVATION OF WILD
ANIMALS
INTRODUCTION
Wildlife conservation refers to the practice of
protecting wild species and their habitats in
order to maintain healthy wildlife species or
populations and to restore, protect or enhance
natural ecosystems. Major threats to wildlife
include habitat destruction , degradation ,
fragmentation , overexploitation , poaching ,
pollution and climate change.

The IUCN estimates that 27,000 species of the


ones assessed are at risk for extinction.
Expanding to all existing species, a 2019
UN report on biodiversity put this estimate
even higher at a million species. It is also
being acknowledged that an increasing
number of ecosystems on Earth containing
endangered species are disappearing.

INITIATIVES
1) WWF - The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF)
is an international non-governmental organization 
founded in 1961 that works in the field of wilderness
preservation and the reduction of human impact on
the environment. It was formerly named the World
Wildlife Fund, which remains its official name in 
Canada and the United States.
2) PROJECT TIGER - Project Tiger is a tiger
Conservation programme launched in April
1973 by the Government of India. Kailash
Sankhala was the first director of Project Tiger.
 as the Bengal Tiger is the national animal of India,
this project aims , to stem the dwindling
population of the big cats and work to
increase their numbers.
TIGER CONSERVATION IN
INDIA
Our tiger conservation experiences are located in protected
national parks in India. These are some of the most important
areas in the world for tiger conservation and protection, as they
provide a safe haven in which the tigers can live freely.
Populations of these big cats have been declining for a century
as they compete with growing human populations for habitat
space, which is a serious concern when you consider that tigers
are solitary animals and claim large territories. This pressure
exists alongside relentless poaching, conflict with humans and
the demand for their bones as an ingredient in Chinese
medicine. 
Not only tiger conservation, we have –
1) Project Rhino in Assam
2) Project Great Indian Bustard
