Wildlife population management aims to prevent further decline in the numbers of threatened or rare populations, protect certain populations, and even restore certain populations. It involves aspects such as the biology, distribution, and migration of species, population sizes, reproductive biology of species, Red List assessments, and conservation planning. Additionally, conducting research on topics such as increasing rates of habitat conversion due to global climate change, sudden changes in species threat statuses, temporal and spatial alterations in habitat and food sources, phenological and systematic changes, ecosystem services, and nature-based solutions, and invasive species are also among the objectives.] The planning process for wildlife management involves determining the inventory system, identifying and quantifying the resource values of ecosystems, establishing planning principles, determining conservation objectives and management goals, establishing functional models between resource structure and management objectives, and developing the planning model to create plan strategies. An academic perspective on these matters will contribute significantly to the management and conservation of Turkey's biodiversity.] The aim is to uncover the biological richness in our country, to investigate the impacts of human activities on species diversity and natural habitats, to develop local and national solutions to prevent species extinctions and maintain the existence of genetic resources.]
