The lecture material and videos introduced you to the variety of methods used for biodiversity conservation. Some focus on the protection of individual species, while others focus on the protection of ecosystems and landscapes. Imagine you have started your own conservation organization, and your mission is to conserve the Florida Scrub-Jay. These federally endangered bird species are found only in Florida’s oak scrub and scrubby Flatwoods. Using the below information about the Florida Scrub-Jay, combined with what you have learned in this module, write a well-constructed essay of at least 250 words explaining how you would use a combination of species- and landscape-level conservation approaches to fulfill your mission. As part of your answer, make a case for why it is valuable to practice BOTH species- and landscape-level conservation in this case.
