Various species of deer are commonly seen wildlife across the Americas and Eurasia
Wildlife includes all non-domesticated plants, animals and other organisms.
Domesticating wild plant and animal species for human benefit has occurred many times
all over the planet, and has a major impact on the environment, both positive and
negative.
A Bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) surfs the wave of a research boat on the Banana
River, near the Kennedy Space Center, and is an example of wildlife.
 Wildlife includes all non-domesticated plants, animals and other organisms.
Domesticating wild plant and animal species for human benefit has occurred
many times all over the planet, and has a major impact on the environment,
both positive and negative.
Wildlife can be found in all ecosystems. Deserts, rain forests, plains, and other
areas including the most developedurbun sites, all have distinct forms of
wildlife. While the term in popular culture usually refers to animals that are
untouched by human factors, most scientists agree that wildlife around the
world is impacted by human activities.
Humans have historically tended to separate civilization from wildlife in a number of ways
including the legal, social, and moral sense. This has been a reason for debate throughout
recorded history. Religions have often declared certain animals to be sacred, and in modern
times concern for the natural environment has provoked activists to protest the exploitation of
wildlife for human benefit or entertainment. Literature has also made use of the traditional
human separation from wildlife.
Food,pets,tradition medicine
 Anthropologist believe that the Stone Age peoples and hunter-gather relied
on wildlife, both plant and animal, for their food. In fact, some species may
have been hunted to extinction by early human hunters. Today, hunting,
fishing, or gathering wildlife is still a significant food source in some parts of
the world. In other areas, hunting and non-commercial fishing are mainly
seen as a sport or recreation, with the edible meat as mostly a side benefit.
Meat sourced from wildlife that is not traditionally regarded as game is known
as bush meat. The increasing demand for wildlife as a source of traditional
food in East Asia is decimating populations of sharks, primates, pangolin and
other animals, which they believe have aphrodisiac properties.
 In November 2008, almost 900 plucked and "oven-ready" owls and other
protected wildlife species were confiscated by the Department of Wildlife and
National Parks in Malaysia, according to TRAFFIC. The animals were
believed to be bound for China, to be sold in wild meat restaurants. Most are
listed in CITIES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered
Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) which prohibits or restricts such trade.
“
Malaysia is home to a vast array of amazing wildlife. However, illegal hunting and trade poses a
threat to Malaysia’s natural diversity.
—Chris S. Shepherd
A November 2008 report from biologist and author Sally Kneidel, PhD, documented
numerous wildlife species for sale in informal markets along the Amazon River, including
wild-caught marmosets sold for as little as $1.60 (5 Peruvian soles). Many Amazon
species, including peccaries, agoutis, turtles, turtle eggs, anacondas, armadillos, etc.,
are sold primarily as food. Others in these informal markets, such as monkeys and
parrots, are destined for the pet trade, often smuggled into the United States. Still other
Amazon species are popular ingredients in traditional medicines sold in local markets.
The medicinal value of animal parts is based largely on superstition.
Media
The Douglas squirrel(Tamiasciurus douglasii) is an example of wildlife.
Tourism
 Wildlife has long been a common subject for educational television shows.
National Geographic specials appeared on CBS beginning in 1965, later
moving to ABC and then PBS. In 1963, NBC debuted Wild Kingdom, a popular
program featuring zoologist Marlin Perkins as host. The BBC natural history
unit in the UK was a similar pioneer, the first wildlife series LOOK presented
by Sir Peter Scott, was a studio-based show, with filmed inserts. It was in this
series that David Attenborough first made his appearance which led to the
series Zoo Quest during which he and cameraman Charles Lagus went to
many exotic places looking for elusive wildlife—notably the Komodo dragon
in Indonesia and lemurs in Madagascar. Since 1984, the Discovery Chanel land
its spin animal Planet in the USA have dominated the market for shows about
wildlife on cable television, while on PBS the NATURE strand made by
WNET-13 in New York and NOVA by WGBH in Boston are notable. See
Nature documentary. Wildlife television is now a multi-million dollar industry
with specialist documentary film-makers in many countries including UK,
USA, New Zealand NHNZ, Australia, Austria, Germany, Japan, and Canada.
There are many magazines which cover wildlife National Wildlife Magazine,
Birds & Booms, Birding , and Ranger Rick(for children).
Fuelled by media coverage and inclusion of conservation education in early school
curriculum, Wildlife tourism & Ecotourism has fast become a popular industry generating
substantial income for developing nations with rich wildlife specially , Africa and India.
This ever growing and ever becoming more popular form of tourism is providing the
much needed incentive for poor nations to conserve their rich wildlife heritage and its
habitat.
Destruction
 Map of early human migrations, according to mitochondrial population genetics.
Numbers are millennia before the present.
 This subsection focuses on anthropogenic forms of wildlife destruction.
 Exploitation of wild populations has been a characteristic of modern man since our
exodus from Africa 130,000 – 70,000 years ago. The rate of extinction of entire species of
plants and animals across the planet has been so high in the last few hundred years it is
widely considered that we are in the sixth great extinction event on this planet; the
Holecone Mass extinction .
 Destruction of wildlife does not always lead to an extinction of the species in question,
however, the dramatic loss of entire species across Earth dominates any review of
wildlife destruction as extinction is the level of damage to a wild population from which
there is no return.
 The four most general reasons that lead to destruction of wildlife include overkill,
habitat destruction and fragmentation, impact of introduced species and chains of
extinction.
Destruction of wildlife does not always lead to an extinction of the
species in question, however, the dramatic loss of entire species
across Earth dominates any review of wildlife destruction as extinction
is the level of damage to a wild population from which there is no
return.
The four most general reasons that lead to destruction of wildlife include
overkill, habitat destruction and fragmentation, impact of introduced species
and chains of extinction
Habitat destruction and fragmentation
Deforestation and increased road-building in the Amazon Rainforest are a significant concern
because of increased human encroachment upon wild areas, increased resource extraction and
further threats to biodiversity.
The of any given species is considered its preferred area or territory. Many processes associated
human habitation of an area cause loss of this area and decrease the carrying capacity of the land
for that species. In many cases these changes in land use cause a patchy break-up of the wild
landscape. Agricultural land frequently displays this type of extremely fragmented, or relictual,
habitat. Farms sprawl across the landscape with patches of unclear woodland or forest dotted in-
between occasional paddocks.
Chains of extinction
Examples of habitat destruction include grazing of bush land by
farmed animals, changes to natural fire regimes, forest clearing for
timber production and wetland draining for city expansion.
Mice, cats, rabbits, dandelions and poison ivy are all examples of species that have
become invasive threats to wild species in various parts of the world.
Frequently
species that are uncommon in their home range become out-of-control invasions in
distant but similar climates. The reasons for this have not always been clear and
Charles Darwin felt it was unlikely that exotic species would ever be able to grow
abundantly in a place in which they had not evolved. The reality is that the vast
majority of species exposed to a new habitat do not reproduce successfully.
Occasionally, however, some populations do take hold and after a period of
acclimation can increase in numbers significantly, having destructive effects on many
elements of the native environment of which they have become part.
This final group is one of secondary effects. All wild populations of living things have
many complex intertwining links with other living things around them. Large herbivorous
animals such as the hippopotamus have populations of insectivorous birds that feed off
the many parasitic insects that grow on the hippo. Should the hippo die out, so too will
these groups of birds, leading to further destruction as other species dependent on the
birds are affected.
. Also referred to as a Domino effects, this series of chain reactions is by far the
most destructive process that can occur in any ecological community
Another example is the black drongos sand the cattle egrets found in India.
These birds feed on insects on the back of cattle, which helps to keep them
disease-free. If we destroy the nesting habitats of these birds, it will result a
decrease in the cattle population because of the spread of insect-borne
diseases.

Wildlife television is now a multi-million dollar industry with specialist documentary film-makers in many countries including UK, USA, New Zealand NHNZ, Australia, Austria, Germany, Japan, and Canada. There are many magazines which cover wildlife National Wildlife Magazine, Birds & Booms, Birding , and Ranger Rick(for children). Fuelled by media coverage and inclusion of conservation education in early school curriculum, Wildlife tourism & Ecotourism has fast become a popular industry generating substantial income for developing nations with rich wildlife specially , Africa and India. This ever growing and ever becoming more popular form of tourism is providing the much needed incentive for poor nations to conserve their rich wildlife heritage and its habitat.
  • 8. Destruction  Map of early human migrations, according to mitochondrial population genetics. Numbers are millennia before the present.  This subsection focuses on anthropogenic forms of wildlife destruction.  Exploitation of wild populations has been a characteristic of modern man since our exodus from Africa 130,000 – 70,000 years ago. The rate of extinction of entire species of plants and animals across the planet has been so high in the last few hundred years it is widely considered that we are in the sixth great extinction event on this planet; the Holecone Mass extinction .  Destruction of wildlife does not always lead to an extinction of the species in question, however, the dramatic loss of entire species across Earth dominates any review of wildlife destruction as extinction is the level of damage to a wild population from which there is no return.  The four most general reasons that lead to destruction of wildlife include overkill, habitat destruction and fragmentation, impact of introduced species and chains of extinction.

  • 10. Habitat destruction and fragmentation Deforestation and increased road-building in the Amazon Rainforest are a significant concern because of increased human encroachment upon wild areas, increased resource extraction and further threats to biodiversity. The of any given species is considered its preferred area or territory. Many processes associated human habitation of an area cause loss of this area and decrease the carrying capacity of the land for that species. In many cases these changes in land use cause a patchy break-up of the wild landscape. Agricultural land frequently displays this type of extremely fragmented, or relictual, habitat. Farms sprawl across the landscape with patches of unclear woodland or forest dotted in- between occasional paddocks.
  • 11. Chains of extinction Examples of habitat destruction include grazing of bush land by farmed animals, changes to natural fire regimes, forest clearing for timber production and wetland draining for city expansion. Mice, cats, rabbits, dandelions and poison ivy are all examples of species that have become invasive threats to wild species in various parts of the world. Frequently species that are uncommon in their home range become out-of-control invasions in distant but similar climates. The reasons for this have not always been clear and Charles Darwin felt it was unlikely that exotic species would ever be able to grow abundantly in a place in which they had not evolved. The reality is that the vast majority of species exposed to a new habitat do not reproduce successfully. Occasionally, however, some populations do take hold and after a period of acclimation can increase in numbers significantly, having destructive effects on many elements of the native environment of which they have become part. This final group is one of secondary effects. All wild populations of living things have many complex intertwining links with other living things around them. Large herbivorous animals such as the hippopotamus have populations of insectivorous birds that feed off the many parasitic insects that grow on the hippo. Should the hippo die out, so too will these groups of birds, leading to further destruction as other species dependent on the birds are affected.
  • 12. . Also referred to as a Domino effects, this series of chain reactions is by far the most destructive process that can occur in any ecological community Another example is the black drongos sand the cattle egrets found in India. These birds feed on insects on the back of cattle, which helps to keep them disease-free. If we destroy the nesting habitats of these birds, it will result a decrease in the cattle population because of the spread of insect-borne diseases.
