About Us
The Wildlife Management Center
Philosophy
Our aims are to establish a research and education center for wildlife management; to create an international wildlife-management consortium; and to construct a scientific system for managing wildlife.
We will also continue to educate students and conduct research that contributes to improving the sustainable value of rural areas, and to solve the social issues involving wildlife-human conflicts by training the next generation of wildlife managers.
