Summary:In !973, The Endangered Species Act was passed by the U.S Congress, one conservation group was discussing about to how they are trying to conserve species or saving them but they are limiting their range to how many they are trying to save. They are using a triage, means that it is a decision making system where they only have limited amount of supplies or money. They are trying to see whether the endangered species are evolution-first, preserving genetic diversity, or function-first, means that a species that performs well in the environment. Also called as umbrella species, that preserving one species can preserve the other species as well.
Reflection:After reading this article, I think that preserving endangered species can be quite hard since it is a decision making whether a species to die or to live. They are deciding because they only have a limited supplies and money to save many endangered species. This is all happening because of human activities and we can't even save many endangered species just because we lack of supplies and money. There is no need for money if we are trying to save lives.
