3.4 Mindomo task

Example of a successful protected area + why successful

Criteria for a protected area

In Situ conservation

"On-site conservation" In the original habitat, that is protected. Wild life sanctuaries.

Flagship species

In conservation biology, a flagship species is a species chosen to raise support for biodiversity conservation in a given place or social context

Edge effect

Ex Situ conservation

"Off-Site conservation" not in the original habitat // Giant pandas in zoos for captive breeding

Umbrella species

Species for making conservation-related decisions. Protecting these species indirectly protects other species in the habitat.

Keystone species

Keystone species are species that have a high impact on an ecosystem if their populations decrease. Keystone species are critical for the overall structure and function of an ecosystem.
