For this week’s discussion, you need to choose one (1) endangered species (USE BALD EAGLE) from the area where you currently live or have lived in the past.
Visit the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species website and type in your county, state, region, or country.
Do not select the same endangered species as another student. Use the name of your species in the title of your post to make it easier for other students to select a unique species.
Please address the following about your endangered species (number your answers):
1. State the organism’s genus, species, and common name if applicable.
2. State the geographical range, and based on what you have learned from this week’s textbook readings, determine the biome and ecosystem in which this species lives.
3. Using what you have learned in this week’s textbook chapters, describe this species in ecological terms, and how it fits into the food web and the ecosystem.
4. Discuss the primary reasons why your chosen species is endangered or threatened (habitat loss, change in climate, etc.)
5. How have humans impacted the survival of this species – both negatively and positively?
6. In your opinion, what level of effort should we expend on saving endangered species? What can be done to help them survive, and, in particular, your chosen species?
Consider adding a photo of your chosen species.
