As already mentioned before, Wildlife Trust was an international organization and conservation leader that capacitated and encouraged local conservation scientists all over the world to save nature and protect both the ecosystem and human health. Wildlife Trust has been active for more than three decades. It dominated the field of Conservation Medicine which strictly speaking represents a new medical discipline dealing with the connection and relation between the ecological breakup of wildlife, human health, livestock and general survival. Furthermore, Wildlife Trust was doing great research considering the discovery, specific reasons as well as causes of disease emergence (Nipah virus, West Nile virus, SARS, Lyme disease, Avian Influenza and AIDS).
By means of its leadership, knowledge, programs and international partners such as local conservation scientists, the Consortium for Conservation Medicine and the global Wildlife Trust Alliance, Wildlife Trust aimed to unify biodiversity conservation, health and ecology. These partnerships, particularly those with the Consortium for Conservation Medicine and the global Wildlife Trust Alliance, gave Wildlife Trust the possibility to learn more about specific issues, for instance considering the impacts and consequences of disease outbreaks to the protections of wildlife sanctuaries.
Strictly speaking Wildlife Trust as a conservation science innovator focused on saving and protecting biodiversity in so-called human-dominated ‘bioscapes’. Wildlife Trust invented the term ‘bioscape’ in order to describe special regions and as a way to achieve conservation and protection in that very region. Consequently, Wildlife Trust tried to indentify particular regions where ecological and human health is most at risk because of special and different reasons such as species imbalance, pollution and habitat loss. Of course there are lots of other environmental concerns caused by human-induced changes. Strictly speaking we are talking about specific environmental issues being responsible for the fact that special regions require a profound conservation with a focus on ecology, health and biodiversity.
‘Bioscapes’ that turn out to be successful are marked by a local sense of place that is related to the connections between the aspects health, biodiversity, ecology, and sustainable living within an equipment facilitating general work and research. Therefore, people respect nature and strive to protect our ecosystem more than ever, when making travel as a gift and planning means of transportation.
