Biodiversity Status of Species
Choose 3 of your own observations, identified to species level, from the 3 different kingdoms.
Research – from academic/scholarly sources – their biodiversity status in the original habitat in which you have observed them, completing a 1-page write-up for each species. Consider these questions during your research:
• What is their current biodiversity status?
• What are their historical trends for changing biodiversity?
• What sources of threat exist to them?
• What are some possible consequences to their ecosystems if this species were to go extinct, or greatly diminished in population?
• What efforts are currently happening to help preserve this species?
