For each threat, name one species that is directly impacted by this threat and describe how it is being impacted. Be specific and do not use the endangered species on which you wrote your term paper. Also, provide the name of an institution (either a government agency or a non-government organization) that is addressing that threat/species through their conservation efforts and explain what the institution is doing. To answer this question, click on the table icon () in the text editor menu in the answer box and create a table with 5 columns and 7 rows to fill in your answers (see example below). If you are not able to create a table, feel free to provide a numbered list that includes the required information. Please do not copy and paste the example table below into the answer box unless you re-format it so it fits inside the answer box. Any portions of the answer that do not fit inside the answer text box will not be graded. Also, please be concise (word counts should remain below 50 for every cell of the table). For this question, you may use species and institutions that were covered in class or you may perform a web search to find the information you need. Make sure to provide a citation if you use sources outside of course materials.

Habitat Loss Sloth Habitat loss/destruction has created fragmented habitats, and sloths have difficulty traveling between fragments; sloths prefer to travel from tree to tree rather than by ground where they can be killed by predators or cars when the sloths try to cross roadways The Sloth Conservation Foundation (SloCo) (you only need to list one initiative for your institution) - create safe ways for sloths to travel between habitat fragments by installing Sloth Crossing canopy “bridges” - design sustainable ways for sloths to coexist with humans sharing their habitat - fund small research grants to support scientific research studies aiding sloth conservation and management (https://slothconservation.com/what-we-do/overview/) 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
