The Evolution of Wildlife Conservation New In 2010
Wildlife conservationists are fighting the alarming trends in Britain and abroad to protect the future of endangered species. Already in 2010 has been a series of important scientific press releases about the future of our animals and their habitats.
Tigers in the wild
As pandas and whales, the tiger has been often the child Poster for the conservation of wildlife. This year, a report out of China that their numbers in nature can be as low as fifty.
China Country Program Director and spokesperson for the Wildlife Conservation Society, Xie Yan, described the situation as "depressing." In field surveys in China can now count the tiger population in the province double digits, with only fifteen animals sighted throughout Tibet, Yunnan and ten. Moreover, it is believed these tigers are too isolated from other populations of tiger for their numbers to recover.
The numbers are better in the Northeast, however, where wild tigers are able to interact with other Russian schemes and conservation of wildlife have had some success. There is also less human interference their habitat in this region.
Looking at a broader picture, the Asian population has been reduced from approximately 100,000 to 3,500 in the past one hundred years. medical traditions and a market for tiger skins and trophies have meant that the Tigers have been on the brink of extinction by hunting.
Galapagos Sea Lions
Wildlife conservationists in the Organization for Research and Conservation of Aquatic Animals reported an alarming exodus of the Galapagos Islands. ORCA Scientists monitor the waters around Peru have noticed an entire colony of Galapagos sea lions have moved from its territory to the north coast of Peru, about 900 miles away.
This species is one of many in the Galapagos Islands can not be found elsewhere in the world, so that this disclosure is an important issue for wildlife conservation, which could signal the beginning of a worrying trend of animals leaving their natural habitats.
There is concern that the abandonment of the colony of Galapagos not only can alter the ecosystem of the archipelago, but that could destabilize the ecological balance throughout Peru.
In the last decade sea temperatures in this region has risen by an average of 6 degrees Celsius, matching conditions around the Galapagos. ORCA scientists have suggested that this may have attracted the lions in the area.
Welsh Squirrels
Our native red squirrels have been struggling in recent decades. They are as emblematic animal for our British countryside and heritage, so it's good to hear that there are now a number of government agencies and scientists investigate the problem. In February 2010, a Squirrel Conservation Plan was announced in Wales.
The numbers of red squirrels are reduced due to the invasion of gray and black squirrel species, disease, and some narrowing of their habitat
