In what ways does the study of human population differ from the study of wildlife ecology

Demography is the study of human population. It studies about the size of the population, birth, death, age, immigration, migration, nationality, religion, economic status and education status. Wild life ecology is also concerned with the population of wild animals, birds, reptiles and other creatures. It also studies the interaction between two or more species, members of the species, interaction of species with their environment.

The study of human population differ from the study of wildlife ecology to the following reasons:

1. Human population can be easily surveyed upon the factors like age, births, death, immigeration and migration. But it is difficult to follow up animals for such factors because some animals are dangerous to human.

2. Human populations maintains their territory but wildlife populations generally do not. Therefore, evidences of their migration can be unaccountable.
