Finally‚ human encroachments’ definition is when humans come into other animals habitats and disturb them in a way that it is difficult to live. Human encroachment has lead sloths into being poached and causes the sloths population diminish. Finally‚ human encroachment might lead to some habitat destruction and other effects that will harm the sloths. We now know some problems that have decreased the Brown throated Sloths’ population‚

based on what color of skin color they had either brown or green since it was the most distinguishable at the time. However‚ I revised my groups later based on size of the anoles’ legs since each of the different anoles had evolved based on their habitat. By grouping based on tail length‚ it was easier to distinguish the differences after measuring hind lengths‚ tails and toe pads. Therefore‚ my new groups were long tails‚ long legs‚ short legs and large toe pads. 2. An adaptation is a structure

Imagine that one day your great grand-children or even your grand-children grow up believing that Polar Bears and Pandas are as mythical as unicorns. Due to factors such as illegal game hunting‚ environmental pollution and human encroachment into habitats‚ more and more species of animals are becoming endangered every day. It is society ’s duty to discover the source of the problem as well as find solutions for them in order to sustain what precious wildlife is left. By instigating protective laws

reasons why lemurs are facing extinction; lemurs are being put at risk by deforestation‚ hunting‚ and climate change (Dunham et al.‚ 2008). Deforestation in Madagascar is especially significant in affecting lemurs. Deforestation leads to habitat loss and habitat fragmentation‚ which may have negative consequences for lemurs (Craul et al.‚ 2009). Lemurs are threatened by hunting because they are a food source for locals. There have been efforts by the government in Madagascar to combat the effects

areas where the animals would be protected in their natural habitat. During the early 1960s‚ China’s State Council called upon the provinces to set aside land for the protection of China’s wildlife. Sichuan province responded quickly with a plan to create reserves to protect Giant Pandas and other animals in the area. Today there are approximately 40 panda reserves across Southwestern China. Some are Nature Reserves providing a safe habitat for wild Giant Pandas‚ like a National Park Other reserves

The threat on biodiversity is a problem‚ establishing parks and restoring habitats can be possible solutions if and only when Impact‚ cost‚ and effectiveness are entered into consideration. Establishing parks and restoring the habitats these species are already in‚ highly impacts the recuperation of biodiversity.
