Wildlife population management aims to prevent the further decline of a threatened or rarely observed population, to conserve a population, and even to restore a population. It encompasses topics such as species biology, distribution, migration, population size, reproductive biology, Red List assessments, and conservation planning. Research topics also include increasingly frequent habitat changes due to global climate change, sudden changes in species threat statuses, temporal and spatial changes in habitats and food sources, phenological and systematic changes, ecosystem services, nature-based solutions, and invasive species. The planning process to be implemented in wildlife includes: determining the inventory system, determining and quantifying the resource values of ecosystems, establishing planning principles, determining conservation objectives and management goals, establishing functional models between the structure of the resource and the management goal, and developing the planning model to create planning strategies. This will make important contributions to the management and conservation of our country's biodiversity from an academic perspective. Ensuring the discovery of our country's biological wealth, researching the effects of human activities on species diversity and natural habitats, preventing species extinction, and continuing the existence of genetic resources will provide local and national solutions.
