Species monitoring

Species monitoring is the systematic observation and tracking of wildlife populations to gather data about their numbers, health, and behavior over time. This process involves regular surveys and assessments to identify trends, such as increases or declines in species, which can indicate environmental changes or threats. The information collected helps conservationists, researchers, and policymakers make informed decisions to protect endangered species, manage ecosystems, and promote biodiversity. Monitoring not only contributes to scientific knowledge but also aids in ensuring the balance of nature and the sustainability of our planet’s resources.
