    1. The International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List tracks the global conservation status of species. It lists the Golden Bamboo Lemur which lives in Madagascar wetlands and forests where agriculture, aquaculture, and hunting threaten it, though conservation efforts protect some lands. 2. Zebra and quagga mussels are invasive species harming ecosystems and fisheries in the Great Lakes region. They damage infrastructure and are nearly impossible to remove once established, costing states like Colorado a great deal. Colorado now mandates inspections of incoming vessels to prevent further spread. 3. Mangroves protect coastlines from storms, provide habitat for marine life, and absorb carbon dioxide, making them important

    1.

    a. The International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species is
    the world’s most comprehensive information source on the global conservation status of
    animals, fungi and plant species.
    b. Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species.
    c. Golden Bamboo Lemur, Hapalemur aureus, Madagascar Forest wetlands, Agriculture,
    aquaculture, hunting and trapping, conservationists protect the water and the land in parts
    of the legal legislation.
    2. Currently the biggest invasive species problem is mussels, specifically zebra and quagga
    mussels. The adults of these species harm aquatic ecosystems and Fisheries by disrupting the
    food web and taking out the competition. They are also a major problem to humans by damaging
    agriculture, industrial equipment, and plugging up water reservoirs. Once an infection starts they
    are nearly impossible to eradicate so they become very costly annoyance. Last year Colorado
    lawmakers made rigorous inspections of incoming ships mandatory. So they could make sure no
    more can come in.
    3. Mangroves protect coastlines from oncoming storms, sea life, and absorb carbon dioxide.
    They are an essential part of the ecosystem, tearing them down would increase the damage of
    storms, marine life habitats and cause global warming to grow faster and more uncontrollable.
    4. Biodiversity is the variety of living things in an area. Three kinds of diversity that are essential
    to preserving ecosystems are ecological functions are genetic diversity, species diversity and
    ecological diversity.
