Wisconsin Hunter's Safety Practice Exam

Wildlife preservation focuses on saving natural resources with no consumptive use, which means that they are not used or destroyed for economic gain or human purposes. The other options are incorrect because they prioritize using or exploiting natural resources for human gain rather than preserving them for their intrinsic value and ecological importance. Selling natural resources for economic gain (option A) can contribute to the depletion of these resources and harm the habitats of native wildlife. Maintaining wildlife populations through hunting (option B) can also have negative impacts on the long-term sustainability of species and their ecosystems. Introducing non-native species for biodiversity (option D) can lead to imbalances in ecosystems and harm native species. Ultimately, wildlife preservation focuses on protecting and preserving natural resources and their inhabitants for future generations.
