The Growing Role of Sustainable Wildlife Tourism and Indian Youth in Wildlife Conservation

Abstract For the benefit of future generations, the natural environment must be maintained and preserved. One of the many nations where wildlife or nature-based tourism is expanding is India. Young people need to have a bigger role in protecting nature. Wildlife parks, walks, camping, bird watching, scuba diving, and other experiences that depend on the natural environment are all possible for those who participate in nature-based tourism. These kinds of tourism are thought to be advantageous to local economies and conservation, in addition to supplying money for park management and jobs. All around the world, youth groups' programs have made sustainable development a pillar. As a result, new youth-led projects addressing issues like deforestation, disaster relief, and animal welfare are reported virtually daily. Since they will be the ones using it in the near future, everyone in society has a particular stake in maintaining the common good. Both ecologically sustainable economic growth and the sustainable use of natural resources will improve human existence. Millennials are aware that now is not the time to wait for things to happen on their own. Keywords: Sustainable Wildlife Tourism, Indian Youth, Wildlife Conservation, Local Communities
