Conservation education is the study of humans’ intelligent use of their natural environment through the development, management, preservation, and renewal of natural resources for material, cultural, and aesthetic needs to benefit present and future generations. Conservation education hopes to positively influence people’s attitudes, emotions, knowledge, and behaviors about wildlife and wild places. This is done through the efforts of skilled educators, who use a variety of techniques, methods, and assessments to connect and reconnect people with the natural world.
