Abstract: Using bibliometric software CiteSpace, a visual analysis of the theme of wildlife conservation was conducted to provide the latest hotspots and research directions for wildlife studies. Based on the CNKI database, a journal literature analysis was performed, and 1139 standard articles were visually analyzed for publication volume, publishing institutions, authors, co-occurrence of keywords, clustering, and burst analysis. The results showed that the overall publication volume in the field of wildlife conservation showed an increasing trend, with forestry-related journals ranking high in publication volume. Domestically, attention to wildlife conservation was particularly high around the time of revising conservation laws. Core research institutions were closely interconnected, forming seven large collaborative networks among researchers. Over time, research on the keyword "wildlife" had persisted. In the early stages, the researches in this field mainly focused on the ecological environment. With the introduction of the concept of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature, societal attention and protection towards wildlife had increased. The emphasis on the survival environment of wildlife, particularly in natural protected areas, was gradually growing. Combining wildlife conservation with research on nature reserves and further exploring conservation strategies and measures, predicting conservation directions, can better address threats to nature and wildlife.
