As per the definition of the International Ecotourism Society, "Ecotourism is responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the welfare of local people". Ecotourism should protect wildlife and cultural values of native society, benefit the native inhabitants and involve their society, be sustainable and generate profit without abolishing natural resources, and provide an experience which travelers wish to pay for. It could also contributes to the local economic development and provide the environment with non-consumptive revenue sources and fundraising to conservation. Moreover, its social impact would be to benefit local inhabitants through community empowerment. Tourism grounds damages but Ecotourism tries to minimize it, because you are supposed to stay with local people in their houses, travel by bicycles, elephants, boat or on foot to avoid pollution, and jobs in the natural reserves have to be performed by native people from wardens to top-level management. Hence Ecotourism creates more passionate and effective proxies of conservation.
