California Condor (Gymnogyps californianus):The California Condor is one of the most critically endangered birds in North America. Habitat destruction, lead poisoning from ammunition, and collisions with power lines have pushed it to the brink of extinction. Thanks to intensive conservation efforts, th...
How can biodiversity affect an ecosystem? What is the role of overexploitation in biodiversity loss? How does biodiversity loss affect human health? How are habitat loss and biodiversity connected? How does deforestation affect ecosystem services?
The overexploitation of natural resources, that is, their consumption at a speed greater than that of their natural regeneration, has an obvious impact on the planet's flora and fauna. The loss of biodiversity over the last few centuries (projection of the UN Environment Program). SEE INFOGRAP...
How can humans increase biodiversity? How does biodiversity affect the stability of an ecosystem? How do rainforests maintain the water cycle? How is overexploitation a threat to biodiversity? How does coevolution lead to a decrease in biodiversity?
while juveniles and females show strong philopatry83. The European pond turtle has a complex orientation and can return to its original habitat from a great distance84. The marshland, containing linear structures (e.g. embankments), is an apparently optimal habitat for the turtle nests. At the...

The standard water loss rate through evaporation is negatively correlated with body mass in amphibians (Heatwole et al., 1969), and thus a reduction in body size is likely to make these desiccation-sensitive animals more vulnerable to extinction. Thus, revealing the mechanisms that link body size...
The first response to human disturbances by wildlife is usually behavioral, indicating that changes in ethology are good indicators of anthropogenic impacts (Schlacher et al., 2013). Effects can become severe, such as global species extinction or disruption of communities and ecosystems (Green and ...
How is overexploitation a threat to biodiversity? How can gut biodiversity be increased? How do humans benefit from biodiversity? What is the importance of biodiversity to humans? Why is biodiversity important for the environment? How does biodiversity promote sustainability? Why is biodiversity importan...
How does mass extinction affect biodiversity? What are some dangers of reduced biodiversity? How can biodiversity be affected by evolution? How can biodiversity be conserved? What are some causes of biodiversity loss? How does coevolution lead to a decrease in biodiversity?
