Actuallly, because of their isolated habitats, island species are more vulnerable to extinction. Introduced species,such as cats, mongoose, and others have led to the extinction of many birds especially, because of their inability to understand the tactics of the alien predator.
What else can I help you with?
What is a species which is vulnerable but not yet in immediate danger of extinction?
Jaguar, polar bear.
Why does a declining population make a species more vulnerable to extinction?
if a species is declining then the species that eats that one has less food and will decline fast as well
Which manatees are endangered?
All three species of manatee are listed by the World Conservation Union as vulnerable to extinction.
Why is the polar bear still at risk for extinction?
As of now, the polar bear is a vulnerable species, not on the endangered species list, as some populations are increasing.
Are sealions endangered animals?
Of the six species of Sea Lions, 2 species are listed as endangered and one is listed as vulnerable; the other three are not considered to be in any danger of extinction.
How does size of land mass relate to species diversity?
The population sizes of a species is directly coordinated with the size of the island. A large island close to shore would have a low extinction rate and a successful immigration rate from animals coming over from the mainland.
What are the three pressures that lead to biodiversity according to E O wilsons theory of island biogeography?
immigration, emmigration, and extinction events.
Why do you think island wildlife might be more threatened by invasive species?
Island wildlife is often more threatened by invasive species due to their isolation and unique evolutionary adaptations, which make them more vulnerable to competition and predation. Many island species have evolved without natural predators or competitors, so the introduction of invasive species can disrupt their ecosystems and lead to declines in native populations. Additionally, limited habitat and resources on islands can exacerbate the impact of invasives, making it difficult for native species to adapt or recover. This combination of factors heightens the risk of extinction for island wildlife.
What is the relationship between biological 'island ' size and the number of species that can live there?
The smaller the island the fewer species that can live there. The smaller their populations can be the more vulnerable they are to further disturbance or climate change.
Are the lions in danger of being extinct?
they are vulnerable to extinction
What is the role to save vulnerable species?
Saving vulnerable species is a role.
Why has the panda been listed as endangered?
Pandas have been listed as endangered because people have been hunting them and they are close to extinction.
