Post-colonial wildlife management

Post-colonial wildlife management refers to the practices and policies aimed at conserving wildlife in countries that were formerly colonized. After gaining independence, these nations often reassess how to manage their natural resources, balancing traditional knowledge with modern conservation techniques. This approach seeks to rectify past injustices, promote local stewardship, and integrate community needs with biodiversity conservation. By prioritizing local involvement and understanding the historical context, post-colonial wildlife management aims to create sustainable practices that benefit both wildlife and local populations, fostering a more equitable and effective approach to conservation.
