As part of a statistical investigation why do statisticians gather a sample from the population?

A statistical population is a set of entities from which statistical inferences are to be drawn, often based on a random sample taken from the population. For example, if we are interested in making generalizations about all crows, then the statistical population is the set of all crows that exist now, ever existed, or will exist in the future. Since in this case and many others it is impossible to observe the entire statistical population, due to time constraints, constraints of geographical accessibility, and constraints on the researcher’s resources, a researcher would instead observe a statistical sample from the population in order to attempt to learn something about the population as a whole.
