climbing. It is one of the few places in the world to get a glimpse of some truly exotic and majestic animals (History, 2017). Along with its rare wildlife attractions, it is also the second best institution in the world, second only to the Cheetah Conservation Botswana or breeding cheetahs in Africa (History, 2017). The cheetah breeding program hosted by the Wildlife Safari would not be where it is today without Dr. Laurie L. Marker. Dr. Marker helped develop the U.S. and international…

their survival in the wild. Standing from one point of view, the pandas are an endangered species which once desperately needed funds and resources to save themselves from the brink of extinction. They also helped to raise the awareness of animal conservation worldwide. Opposing this viewpoint, some see the pandas as furry black-and-white money pits, who were already on the brink of extinction, but somehow managed to divert the much-needed funds from the other animals who were less adorable but…

Violations of hunting laws and regulations concerning wildlife management, local or international wildlife conservation schemes constitute wildlife crimes that are typically punishable. In rural areas of the United States, the key motives for poaching are poverty. Wildlife biologists and conservationists consider poaching to have a detrimental effect on biodiversity both within and outside protected areas as wildlife populations decline, species are depleted locally, and the functionality of…

Bonobo Habitat Threatened by Human Activity and Forest Loss - As human populations grow and spread, clearing patches of forest along the way, the habitat of one of mankind's closest living relatives is shrinking - avoids areas of high human activity and forest fragmentation and that as little as 28 percent of the bonobo's range remains suitable for living. - human activities reduce the amount of effective bonobo habitat and will help us identify where to propose future protected areas for this…

What is the Endangered Species Act? Why was the Endangered Species Act created? Why do we care for endangered species? The Endangered Species Act was made so that our native plants, animals, and fish would not go into extinction. This Act requires that Federal and State agencies provide suitable conditions for endangered and threatened species, not to jeopardize from federal activities but to protect and save our native species from extinction. Throughout history there have been many events to…

2004) 1. Alligator mississippiensis of the order Crocodylia and the family Alligatoridae. 2. It is classified a “threatened” species on the US Federal List, despite being listed as ‘lowest risk/of least concern’ by the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species as at 1996 (IUCN 1996a).

The article “Eating Frogs to Extinction” by Ian Warkentin addresses amphibians, particularly frogs, contributes a significant role in the gastronomy of several cultures, thus leading amphibians susceptible to mass extinction. The article begins with a list of factors that is leading to the rising cause of amphibians’ extinction; from environmental degradation to community instability to individual mechanism. These factors include their role as important prey and predators, habitat loss,…

Cobra international states” ...has escalated into an international crisis. Wildlife trafficking is both a critical conservation concern and a threat to global security with significant effects on the national interests of the United States and the interests of our partners around the world.” (Kibwana) To stop this wildlife trafficking will be a work in progress.…

to listen to counter arguments and just see this as a negative thing with no benefits to animals. Despite common conception, legal trophy hunting has helped saved species, persevered land from development and is the majority source of wild life conservation funding in these countries. I also feel the need to point out that trophy hunting and…

(e.g., glaciated northern part of North America and Europe) has become a conservation threat to rare native species, community, and ecosystems (Gundale 2002; Hale et al. 2006; Nuzzo et al 2009; Maerz et al. 2009; Sutherland et al. 2011; Nuzzo et al. 2015). In 2011, Sunderland and coauthors identified earthworm invasions in previously earthworm free regions as one of the 15 most immerging issues of biodiversity conservation. One of the reason for the issue is that invasions by European earthworms…
