Natural selection is a natural process that drives evolution and adaptation within species, it is not a direct cause of endangerment.

Genetic drift is the random fluctuation of allele frequencies in a population, leading to a loss of genetic diversity.

Sea otters play a crucial role in maintaining kelp forests by preying on sea urchins, preventing overgrazing and supporting a diverse ecosystem.

Conservation biology aims to preserve biodiversity, which includes protecting endangered species, managing natural resources, and controlling invasive species.

Greenbelts are strips of undeveloped land that connect natural areas, allowing species to move between habitats and maintain genetic diversity.

Illegal Wildlife Trade encompasses the poaching, trafficking, and trade of wildlife and their products in violation of national and international laws.

Pollution is not a direct cause of habitat loss, although it can degrade habitats and affect species survival.

Species Reintroduction involves releasing individuals of a species into a suitable habitat where they once existed.

Flagship species are charismatic and well-known species that serve as symbols for conservation efforts and raise awareness about broader ecological issues.

Community-Based Conservation involves engaging local communities in conservation efforts, recognizing their knowledge and rights.

Kudzu, Lionfish, and Gypsy Moth are all examples of invasive species that have negative impacts on native ecosystems.

Sustainable Development aims to balance economic development with the preservation of natural resources and ecosystems.

Hunting Reserves are areas where hunting is allowed, while other conservation areas are established to protect wildlife and habitats.

Mitigation involves taking actions to reduce the negative impacts of human activities on the environment.

The recovery of the California Condor, the reintroduction of the Black-footed Ferret, and the protection of the Great Barrier Reef are all examples of successful conservation efforts.
