Write Now biology: saving a species Write a letter to your congressperson in which you use the concepts learned in this chapter to explain how wolves [or a different species near you) are beneficial to our wilderness ecosystems. Explain what role the species plays in the environment, what has caused it to be endangered or at risk now, what the likely effect will be if it goes extinct (locally or globally), and what could be done to ensure its survival.
Can you think of a situation where we deliberately want to make a species extinct? How would you justify it?
If you were given the task of reducing the population of an undesirable species, what would be the best way for you to proceed? 1. increase the population of predators that prey on the undesirable species 2. reduce the carrying capacity of the environment for the undesirable species 3. eliminate the pre-reproductive individuals of the undesirable species
