Habitat Conservation Major Problems: -Climate Change – warming of the planet -Habitat loss- Urban Sprawl -Habitat Degradation- pollution of habitats How they help: -Help with conservation policies in National Wildlife Refuges, National forests, and public lands -Work with state agencies and private landowners to create conservation plans for these areas in the future

  4. Living with Wildlife • Move into areas of wildlife, not used to the animals in the area • Concerned with danger due to predator animals, results in death of those animals • Predator animals eating live stock, resulting in death of predators. • Removing major species will affect ecosystem in a negative way. Defenders want to educate the communities to coexist with wildlife.

  7. Current Actions -Keeping gray wolves on endangered species act -Removal will leave management of this species will be up to individual states - That could open a hunt and kill hundreds of wolves Defenders are looking for 100,000 signatures to urge the President to keep wolves under protection.
