What are important characteristics of an endangered species that woul cause it to be slow to recover?

Question

i need two characteristics. i also need one economic or ecological argument against the protection of the siberian tiger.

Answer 1

They only eat one type of food...like Pandas.

Answer 2

If they are slow to reproduce, such as reproducing only once a year.

Answer 3

They are tasty.

Answer 4

most endangered species occupy a small ecological niche and have very specific, not flexible, conditions they need to survive, a little change in their niche and required conditions immediately put them in danger.

Some endangered species are a preferred source of food or source of something else which humans desire, which makes these species hunted to extinction.

the Siberian tiger is a good example, being a top predator the population of these tigers can not be large, and humans in the far east hunt these tigers because they believe that tiger organs have remedial properties, and act as aphrodisiacs. but removing the top predator from any ecological niche is usually harmful to the whole ecosystem.

Answer 6

their economical use, and rapid destruction of the environment...

Answer 7

you are coming from the wrong angle

first find out why they are endangered

then you will discover that there is no recovery element ,only deterioration of the situation with more to follow.

the ecological argument is that it has taken Nature millions of years to come to an sustainable equilibrium.



each component is part of a balanced system and fulfills a function ,even if you cannot see it.

Take something out and changes result in the food chains

We being at the end are the last to know ,but nevertheless we are ultimately affected.

And when we are in trouble it take money to counter act the problems or we loose money because we loose something that affects our resources.

    LOSS OF HABITAT +CLIMATE CHANGE=EXTINCTION

    Of the earth's estimated 10 million species, 300,000 have vanished in the past 50 years. each years, 3,000 to 30,000 species become extinct.

    A lot of human activity is speeding that up since we tend to overpower all the other species in one way or another.

    Some reasons why animals are being wiped out ,in the forests are:

    The hunting of exotic species for the consumer market

    only about 10% of the animals caught survive

    The hunting of animals for food by settlers

    Forrest fires ,that have started because of slash and burning of forest ,to clear the land for farming, had gotten out of control

    The loss of Habitat because the conditions have changed ,e.g less humidity because of surrounding farmlands ,or over pumping of rivers for human use(farming and utility)

    Because of contamination of the waters ,

    Expanding populations and expanding farming ,that has to keep pace with the expanding populations are very strong forces that encroach upon the rainforest's

    clearing them for farming and settlement areas .

    In Mexico is a famous jungle that the Media has been trying to save for years

    the Naturalists ,and the government ,keep watch .laws are made for protection the wild and to forbid logging.

    TV put out a series of documentaries

    there are campaigns in the News papers

    and all of this has not made the slightest difference

    Rainforest's always are in third world countries and always in third world countries corruption and the need for money s highest

    The jungle gets smaller by the day

    more and more farmers move in .and burn the trees

    It is an impossible situation

    as long as there is poverty in these regions the destruction will continue

    And the Animals will continue to be trapped ,as long as people keep buying the exotic animals

    we must look for ways to improve economic situations on the edges of Nature .

    The Indians or local people would cut everything down and burn the forest to replace it with harmful short term farming killing the soil in no time

    CLIMATE CHANGE

    Changes in Climate is affecting micro biological life and

    the biggest changes so far are invisible at microscopic levels

    many species are going extinct ,whilst others are becoming invasive.

    This in turn affect everything that follows

    the insects that live of that and then everything that depends on insects of both flora and fauna

    vital links in the food chains are disappearing affecting other species further along in the chain

    90% of the feral (wild) bee population in the United States has died out.

    Recent studies in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands have shown that bee diversity is down 80 percent in the sites researched, and that "bee species are declining or have become extinct in Britain." The studies also revealed that the numbers of wildflowers that depend on pollination have dropped by 70 percent.

    If bees continue to die off so would the crops they support and with that would ensue major economic disruption and possibly famine.

    Bees are not the only pollinators but if these things are happening to bees we can bet on it that other insects are also in trouble ,on top of this many people are spraying for mosquito`s ,with drastic effects .

    So much follows the insects in the food chains ,that we can expect a lot of very bad changes in the environment .

    And now many animals are becoming sick because of changes in temperature ,

    Only time will tell what is in store for us ,and that time is running now .

    Everything is happening so fast it is not possible to monitor events any more

Answer 8

Loss of habitat.

Loss of habitat is one of the chief reasons for a animal species to become extinct.  I don't know if that applies to the siberian tiger but you might check it out.

Answer 9

one characteristic-

their fur. poachers often hunt animals for their fur

2nd-

ivory-$$$

meat-food and $$$

lol i dont think i will give you the other part. it sounds like you just need HW answers and are cheating
