Hunting is an effective wildlife management tool

George Ewing · Answer 2

b) Hunting is an effective wildlife management tool.

Explanation:

There is a reason behind that. Suppose we left unchecked the population of a specie that is continuously increasing in numbers because of the less population of it predator in that area. It'll consume all the available resources in that area and push the environment to the limits of its hold capacity. That's why hunting is done to prevent the over population of a specie in a particular habitat.
