Match the problems for biodiversity with the solutions. Train more scientists. Establish payments for land managed to enhance conservation. Train and hire local people to work in protected areas. Understand the diverse values of different societies and organizations. Financial subsidies to industries that damage the environment should end. 1. Ecosystems lack monitoring. 2. Economic decision making often fails to include ecosystem services. 3. Revenues associated with protected areas do not directly benefit local people. 4. Endangered species occur on private land. 5. Many businesses remain uninterested in conservation issues.

Determine if each statement is correct or incorrect: 1. Ecosystems with fewer numbers of species tend to be less stable. 2. Increasing numbers of species lead to more redundancy which is bad for the ecosystem. 3. More species mean more niche separation. 4. Species with a low resistance will also have low resilience. 5. Disturbances to ecosystems can be both naturally occurring and human caused. 6. Stresses to ecosystems are useful for removing weaker species and ensuring the strongest survive. 7. Bringing non-native species into an area to increase biodiversity makes the ecosystem more stable.

Match the following solutions to examples that address problems for biodiversity. Habitat Stewardship Fund for Species at Risk Ecological Gifts Program A Gas Guzzler Tax Mission Monarch 1. Train more scientists. 2. Financial subsidies to industries that damage the environment should end. 3. Establish payments for land managed to enhance conservation. 4.

Match the approach to protection with the example from the academic literature. Species approach Hotspot approach Ecosystem approach 1. Wolf reintroductions into the Yellowstone environment restored riparian species and increased biodiversity because wolves controlled the numbers of elk and coyotes which allowed plants, beaver, and foxes to rebound (Ripple and Beschta 2003). 2. The creation of a reserve protects the red-brown treecreeper (Climacteris picumnus). This approach looks to accommodate processes that threaten species viability, such as fragmentation and feral predators (Nicholson et al. 2013). 3. Species richness of tiger beetles, Cicindelidae, is positively correlated with bird and butterfly diversity across North America, Australia, and the Indian subcontinent (Reid, 1998).

Poaching 2. Trophy hunting 3. Human-wildlife conflict 4. Degradation 5. Climate change 6. Lack of resources and personnel

1. Two predators feed on small antelope. One predator weighs 100 kg, and the other weighs 35 kg. Explain what might happen if the two predators share the same area. 2. Wolves are reintroduced into a park. As a result, the vegetation changes. Explain how the changes to the vegetation happened. 3. Find out about the niche of wolves in their community. Determine if they are a keystone species. Then, write a one-page essay describing their role in their ecosystem.
Mimicry occured in nature as species tahe advantageous characteristics from other species to help them survive. As humans, we have also taken this idea of biomimicry and used nature as a design inspiration to sustainably solve human problems. some examples include: whale fins as wind turbines, shark skin materials for marine vessels and swimwear, burrs stick to animals and velcro, water collecting beetles and environmental application. Questions 1. Identify a real world challenge and think about potential designs to solve or help with this challenge. 2. research nature's models - what biomimicry can we see in nature for this challenge? 3. describe a model that could aid in the real world issue and have potential sustainable application.
