Mileston 3:
For this milestone, submit a draft of the threats to survival and conservation efforts sections of the final project (Sections III and IV), including the critical elements listed below. Remember to use
these fact sheets as a helpful format guide when addressing elements related to threats and conservations efforts. Specifically, visit the “Threats” and “What You Can Do” pages.
Specifically, the following
critical elements must be addressed:
III.
Threats to Survival
A. Provide a
summary of threats that endanger the species’ continued survival. In most cases, this element will require description of human pressures that form the basis of the threat.
B. Summarize how these threats can be addressed through
legal actions or societal changes. Because web sources are likely to include more current information than summaries provided in textbooks or published journal articles, you should especially seek to discover recent efforts that are being pursued.
C. Propose steps that readers might take to participate in this
conservation effort.
IV.
Conservation Efforts
A. Evaluate how this species exemplifies major
principles of conservation biology.
B. Explain your feelings about the conservation
challenges facing this species. Do you feel that the situation is hopeless, or are ongoing efforts going to succeed in saving the selected species?
C. Explain how society should balance the
demands of human needs with those of species facing extinction.
D. Suggest specific
steps that have proven to be successful within the field and that readers must take to participate in this conservation effort. This element should be based on the primary literature, textbook reviews, websites, online news reports, or videos, but it may also include your own ideas and suggestions.
What to Submit
Your paper must be submitted as a one to two page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Use at least three sources, which should be cited according to APA style.
