North Cascades Threatened and Endangered Species GLOSSARY biodiversity (biological diversity) : the variety of life on Earth. It refers to the genetic diversity within a species, the variety of the species themselves, and the varieties of ecosystems. The greater the diversity or variety there is in a system, the greater the strength and stability the system has over the long run; diversity strengthens the potential of a population to cope with, or respond to, changes in the environment candidate species : plants and animals for which enough scientific information exists to warrant a proposal for listing as endangered or threatened The candidate designation can be thought of as a population that is teetering on the edge of a critical illness and is being carefully watched; the population is closely monitored to determine if they need to be included on the state or federal threatened or endangered species lists. These populations are not stable, and, in some cases the viability of that species is in question carnivore : an organism that eats only meat. The gray wolf and salmon are examples of carnivores

DINGOES Artist-Martin Harris "What the Dingo Tells Us" The Age, May 5, 2001 Geoff Strong "Archeological records show that dogs have been either companions of humans, such as living around human encampments, for at least 100,000 years. This is exactly the behaviour of the so-called rogue dingoes on Fraser Island, which hang around camping grounds. In Australia since the European conquest, the dingo has occupied a special place in our fears. Other perceived threats to the European sense of comfort have been dealt with similarly: The Thylacine in Tasmania was hunted to extinction. Aborigines were driven from their tribal land; Now suburban possums are eradicated for getting into ceilings, cockies for their taste in imported weather boards and the magpies for territorial aggression during mating... Peter Beattie has chosen a populist, gun-toting solution. There are an estimated 160-200 dingoes, yet the gut reaction is to cull them because they say there are too many.

The 2003 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species - Captions St Helena Ebony (Trochetiopsis ebenus) is a Critically Endangered shrub found only on Saint Helena. The species declined sharply in the 18th century, mainly due to overgrazing by goats, and was once thought to be extinct. In 1980, two shrubs were rediscovered on the Island. All existing material in cultivation is derived from two individuals. This species was previously burned in limekilns to produce mortar. The wood was also used in the 19th century for turnery and ornament making and was introduced to British gardens around 1800. Photo © Rebecca Cairns-Wicks Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophrys) moved from Vulnerable in 2001 to Endangered in 2003. All 21 species of albatross are now identified as globally under threat (compared to just three in 1996 and 16 in 2000). All are undergoing long-term declines, with significant numbers drowning after being caught accidentally on baited hooks set by longline fisheries. BirdLife International’s "Save the Albatross” campaign is trying to reduce the accidental bycatch of seabirds by encouraging longline fisheries to adopt appropriate mitigation measures. Photo © Tony Palliser Riverine Rabbit (Bunolagus monticularis) is assessed as Critically Endangered. The species is found only in the central Karoo region of South Africa and the current population is estimated to be fewer than 250 breeding pairs. With ongoing habitat loss and fragmentation, and direct threats from trapping, feral cats and dogs, and hunting pressure, the population decline is not expected to stop in the near future. Photo ©

Endangered Species, Threatened Convention (online version) The Past, Present and Future of CITES, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora ResourceAfrica CITES Chapter 11 Chapter 11 CITES and the CBD R B Martin Introduction The Secretariats of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora and the Convention on Biological Diversity signed a Memorandum of Understanding on 23rd March 1996. The articles of neither treaty require this but it was a decision of the Parties to both conventions to move in this direction While a process of convergence may have been initiated, it remains true that the two conventions have very different origins and structures. CITES came into force on 1st July 1975 following a three week plenipotentiary conference in Washington DC in 1973 . At the time, there was very little knowledge of the nature and magnitude of international trade in specimens of wild species. Nevertheless, there was a strong feeling that international trade was a significant cause of species decline and the articles of the treaty are replete with the restrictive conservation language of the 1970s. . In addition to this, regional caucuses of the Parties to the CBD also meet prior to the COP. Compared to CITES, which meets once every two to three years, the CBD is far more complex. This chapter assesses the relationship between CITES and the CBD. It begins by considering what common ground they share. It then examines some of the differences in the ways in which they pursue their aims. Finally, a case is put for subsuming CITES under the CBD.

Endangered Animals in the Wild Here at The Oakland Zoo WHITE-HANDED GIBBON: Gibbons are absolutely dependent upon old growth tropical forests. While still common, white-handed gibbons retain only 10% of their original habitat in protected reserves. In 1987, the IUCN* estimated that there were 79,000 white-handed gibbons but to protect other more endangered species of gibbon, all are listed as endangered by the USDI* and are on appendix 1 of the CITES*, prohibiting commercial trade in gibbons. CHIMPANZEE: Chimpanzee populations have been reduced and fragmented by growing populations of people moving into their habitats to establish farms. In addition to this, they are hunted by people for food or to protect crops, and are exported commercially to supply animals for laboratory research and the entertainment trade. OCELOT: Ocelots are still in demand for the fur industries in Europe and Asia, which leads to the abuse of existing laws protecting them. The fur is expensive, up to several hundred dollars for each raw skin since no two animals have identical markings and fur dealers have difficulty in matching pelts. Demand for ocelot skins first increased a great deal in the mid-1960s, when the big cats received protection, but known exports have dropped since 1970, partly because of new conservation laws, and partly because the accessible ocelot supply had been depleted.

Media release archive Fox and wild dog baiting along South Beach at Nambucca Heads to protect endangered little terns Media release - 20/12/2002 A co-operative fox and wild dog baiting program involving the NPWS (NPWS), the Nambucca Local Aboriginal Land Council and the Rural Lands Protection Board (RLBP), is being conducted along South Beach (Foresters Beach), Nambucca Heads. Members of the local Aboriginal Community who have successfully completes a Land Management course will be undertaking the program. The Nambucca Shire Council is also supporting this program. Baiting will commence on the 30 December 2002 and continue until the end of February 2003. Chels Marshal of Nambucca Local Aboriginal Land Council said, "This is a positive step towards contined protection of the little tern breeding colony and towards building a co-operative relationship between NPWS, RLPB and the local Aboriginal community". NPWS Coffs Coast Acting Area Manager Greg Wallace said the purpose of the baiting program is to remove from the area foxes and wild dogs that prey upon native wildlife, specifically the threatened little tern colony which breeds on the northern end of the beach.

Endangered Species Profiles A. Gorilla. 1. Species distribution. The single species of gorilla (Gorilla gorilla) is divided into three subspecies. The subspecies G. g. gorilla is the western lowland gorilla found in Nigeria, Cameroon, parts of the Central African Republic, mainland Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Conga, and the extreme western tip of Zaire. The eastern lowland gorilla (G. g. graueri) is found in east-central Zaire. The mountain gorilla (G. g. beringei) is restricted to the six extinct volcanoes of the Virunga Range on the Zaire-Rwanda-Uganda border. 2. Reasons for endangerment. Reasons for the gorillas' decline include habitat loss due to human encroachment (mostly for agriculture) and poaching for their hands, heads, and meat. 3. Conservation efforts. Gorillas are classified as endangered by the Endangered Species Act and are on Appendix I of CITES. The eastern lowland gorilla and the mountain gorilla are listed as endangered by the IUCN/World Conservation Union. The western lowland gorilla is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN/World Conservation Union. The western lowland gorilla is part of an SSP program with 50 participating institutions, including Busch Gardens in Tampa. The gorilla SSP, the IUCN/World Conservation Union's SSC Primate Specialist Groups, the AZA, and IUDZG have joined to condemn any action which would increase demand for, and trade in, gorillas from Africa.
