Threats to Biodiversity

26.3K
There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...

Biodiversity and Human Values

Human civilization relies on biodiversity in many ways. Sudden changes in species biodiversity result in environmental changes that can modify weather patterns and therefore human civilizations.

What is Conservation Biology?

23.8K
Conservation biology is a scientific field that focuses on the preservation of biodiversity in order to protect ecosystems while meeting the needs of the human population. Humans require properly functioning ecosystems to maintain our supply of natural resources, including food, medicines, and building materials.

Habitat Fragmentation02:31

Habitat Fragmentation

20.8K
Habitat fragmentation describes the division of a more extensive, continuous habitat into smaller, discontinuous areas. Human activities such as land conversion, as well as slower geological processes leading to changes in the physical environment, are the two leading causes of habitat fragmentation. The fragmentation process typically follows the same steps: perforation, dissection, fragmentation, shrinkage, and attrition.

Predator-Prey Interactions02:39

Predator-Prey Interactions

20.9K
Predators consume prey for energy. Predators that acquire prey and prey that avoid predation both increase their chances of survival and reproduction (i.e., fitness). Routine predator-prey interactions elicit mutual adaptations that improve predator offenses, such as claws, teeth, and speed, as well as prey defenses, including crypsis, aposematism, and mimicry. Thus, predator-prey interactions resemble an evolutionary arms race.

Summary

Human-wildlife conflict (HWC) varies across areas, impacting livelihoods differently. Addressing HWC requires interdisciplinary approaches and multilevel governance for sustainable coexistence.

Area of Science:

  • Conservation Biology
  • Environmental Policy
  • Human-Wildlife Interactions

Background:

  • Human-wildlife conflict (HWC) is a critical issue in conservation and agriculture, demanding evidence-based strategies for management and policy.
  • Disparities in perceived and actual costs and benefits of wildlife exist between rural, urban, and peri-urban populations, complicating conflict resolution.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a conceptual model for framing HWC and coexistence dimensions.
  • To provide a framework for determining damage prevention strategies and HWC resolution approaches.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesized current literature and contributions on human perspectives (land use, psychology, governance, attitudes, costs/benefits) and ecological perspectives (animal behavior) of HWC.
  • Developed a conceptual model integrating diverse HWC and coexistence dimensions.

Main Results:

  • Spatial heterogeneity in the costs and benefits of living with wildlife is a significant factor in HWC.
  • A conceptual framework was developed to guide HWC and coexistence management.

Conclusions:

  • Inter- and transdisciplinary approaches are essential for effective HWC management.
  • Multilevel governance strategies are crucial for implementing sustainable management and promoting human-wildlife coexistence.
