Nature, as well as society, is in a constant state of change. The landscape, climate and wildlife populations all vary over time, just as the priorities we set in society and the ways in which we use the land inhabited by wild­life. Sweden currently holds historically large populations of wildlife. They represent a resource that is used to the benefit and enjoyment of many people, but also cause damages to rural enterprises and industries. Future wildlife management needs to be able to adapt to constant changes – varying wildlife populations, invasive species, new management methods, and unexpected consequences of climate change. In the Strategy for Swedish Wildlife Management, the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency points out a choice of directions in order to develop and strengthen the Swedish wildlife management.
