Population quotas are limits set by governments or organizations to control the number of individuals allowed in a specific area or group. These quotas can apply to various contexts, such as immigration, wildlife conservation, or resource allocation. The goal is often to maintain balance and sustainability within a population or ecosystem. In the context of immigration, population quotas help manage the number of people entering a country, ensuring that resources and services can adequately support the newcomers. Similarly, in wildlife management, population quotas can help prevent overpopulation of certain species, promoting biodiversity and ecological health.
