wildlife is a broad spectrum of creatures. in the old days, we really only needed the fur and meat. nowdays, there is alot of scientific research going on. we have creatures on the land, in the sea and air. they are renewable because as long as humans don't make them extinct, they will continue to repopulate.

Wildlife is considered a renewable resource because it can reproduce itself. It is not generally defined as a renewable resource in a consumption sense such as metals and trees. Metals are non renewable, trees are renewable, animals are renewable but only as long as the species can repopulate itself.

Whitetail deer are considered a renewable resource, because there are many of them. Not all wildlife are considered renewable by any means.

I killed an opossum a few years ago. The next spring, some other opossum had babies, so overall, over time, the population of the opossums did not decrease.
The key is sustainable harvest. You want to cull a few, but not kill so many that you make permanent inroads on their ability to continue reproducing and maintaining their numbers.

because, if you don't exhaust an entire colony, it will continue to replace itself.
whether or not it keeps up with consumption in another matter.
