We believe we're doing the right thing to save the island fox and nine threatened plant species, ... and to restore the ecological balance.

When an area is disturbed, it upsets the natural balance and creates an ecological open space that gives non-natives a foothold, ... Another thing is that Florida is not very species-diverse, so there are more options for invasion because there aren't many native species.

With only around 1,200 pairs confined to this small island in the Indian Ocean, the Christmas Island frigate bird is one of the worlds most threatened seabirds. This new satellite tracking data will add enormously to our knowledge of the species.

The hunts are done to restore an ecological balance throughout the reserve.

There are actually more than 90 threatened and endangered plant and animal species in that range.

The global pattern we observed suggests that plant species in species-rich regions exhibit a greater reduction in fruit production due to insufficient pollination than plant species in regions of lower biodiversity.

Some people think that because it's a threatened species, that every one we save is good. But not if they never get to live in the wild.

Remote forest areas that function as refuges for threatened island species are increasingly rare and should receive the highest priority for conservation on the larger islands of the Pacific.

This helps fill a big gap that has existed in evolutionary studies. We have known for some time that when species invade a new environment or ecological niche, a common result is the formation of a great diversity of new species. However, we haven't really understood how or whether the process of adaptation generally drives this pattern of species diversification.

We're pleased with the judge's decision. The decision is a win for the island fox, and the nine plant species that are endangered because of the feral pigs.

There are only about 4,000 marine-plant species compared with an estimated 250,000 species of terrestrial green plants. Similarly, of the 1.7 million-or-so known animal species, only about one-tenth are from oceans, with most of these living on or close to the bottom in relatively shallow water.

Where you used to put out a fishing line 50 years ago and catch 10 species, now you catch five species for the same amount of effort. That's a recipe for ecological collapse and disaster.

The question that will decide our destiny is not whether we shall expand into space. It is: shall we be one species or a million? A million species will not exhaust the ecological niches that are awaiting the arrival of intelligence.

The majority of endangered and threatened species occur on privately owned lands. Working with these landowners is critical to the recovery of many of our most vulnerable species.
