Habitat Recovery Plan Preparation
Review the Habitat Recovery Plan Assignment from Week Five (Please see the attached document for an explanation of what week five’s assignment will involve. I will list that as a separate project with a higher budget – to be due at a later date. For now you will only be selecting the species.)
Review the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service recovery plans
(http://www.fws.gov/endangered/species/recovery-plans.html).
Recovery plans can be searched either by date or by species. Select
one species’ recovery plan as a model for your assignment.
Conduct preliminary research to select a habitat and potential
threatened native species from any of the following: plant, fungi,
amphibian, reptile, insect, fish, mammal, or bird. Conduct an Internet
search using the following term endangered and threatened species in
<state’s name> or search Department of Natural Resources, or use the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service website.
Select two potential species to complete the assignment in Week Five.
Do not select species with an existing recovery plan.
