Discussion 1: Endangered Species
In keeping with the environmental concerns this week, discuss your initial reaction to the following statement.
"Eventually, all species become extinct. Thus, it does not really matter that the passenger pigeon is extinct and that the whooping crane and the world's remaining tiger species are endangered mostly because of human activities."
Do you agree or disagree with this? Why or why not?
Do you feel the Endangered Species Act should be strengthened or weakened? Explain.
USE A REFERENCE OF YOUR CHOICE AND CITE
The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) identifies and lists endangered or threatened plant or animal species. Once a species is listed a recovery plan must be developed and put into effect to aid in the recovery of the endangered species. The website Endangered Species Recovery Program (https://www.fws.gov/endangered/species/recovery-plans.html) lists many endangered species and candidates. Explore this website for species found in your region and state. (Florida)
