The goal of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Endangered Species Act is to conserve plants and animals listed as endangered or threatened, as well as the ecosystems upon which they depend. The Service also works to improve the status of those species to the point that protection under the ESA is no longer necessary. This process is called recovery,
Can you identify both contributing factors to endangered species status as well as strategies used for recovery?
A- Species like the Louisiana black bear are hunted, isolated, and have limited resources for survival
B- Bald eagles and peregrine falcons are susceptible to the effects of pesticides and other toxins in their
environment.
C- Because habitat fragmentation and loss is a contributing factor, habitat restoration and protection is key to the recovery of some species
D- The introduction of breeding pairs to a species native range is an effective method to build a population
E- Legislation enacted to reduce the use of both herbicides and pesticides in certain regions aid in the
recovery of both plant and animal species
F- Recovery plans for plants such as purple coneflower and Eggert's sunflower include saving and storing
seeds ex-situ.
