The concept of wildlife conservation has been around since ancient times.
Restrictions on taking game are mentioned in the Bible, and the beginning official hunting season may have been established in the 13th century past Kublai Khan.
Today, wild animals conservation has evolved into a science, just its goal remains substantially the aforementioned: to ensure the wise use and management of renewable resources.
Given the right circumstances, the living organisms that we call renewable resources tin furnish themselves indefinitely.
Preservation is another means of protecting or saving a resource, such equally by outlawing hunting of endangered species.
Both preservation and conservation are necessary to sustain resources for future generations.
