    Home assignment:
    Research and write the names of
    nine categories in the IUCN Red
    List.
    Flora and fauna
    Differentiate
    between
    threatened,
    vulnerable,
    endangered
    and extinct
    species
    Protected Areas
    List the flora and fauna exclusive
    to a particular region to describe
    the term endemic species and
    infer the pros and cons of their
    ex situ conservation.
    Compare biosphere
    reserves, national parks and
    sanctuaries.
    Ex- situ
    conservation
    Ex-situ conservation is a way of
    saving endangered species by
    moving them away from their
    natural habitats
    PROJECT TIGER

    Project Tiger was


    launched by the
    government to
    protect the tigers in
    the country. The
    objective of this
    project was to
    ensure the survival
    and maintenance of
    the tiger population
    in the country.
    SWBAT:
    • Debate about the pros and cons of ex situ conservation of endemic species.
    • Make a digital comparative chart of biosphere reserves,national parks and
    sanctuaries.
    Make a digital
    comparative
    chart of criteria:
    Type of plants/animals conserved.
    biosphere Size range

    reserves, Boundaries fixed or not fixed by legislation


    Human interference allowed or not,if yes
    national parks then to what extent?
    Tourism permitted or not
    and
    sanctuaries.
    Ecosystem concept
    IUCN Classification
    Red Data Book

    • Red Data Book is the source book which keeps a record of all the endangered animals and plants.
    • Red Data Book is maintained internationally by an organisation.
    • India also maintains Red Data Book for plants and animals found in India.
    Migration
    Recycling of paper

    • It takes 17 full grown trees to make one tonne of paper


    • A large amount of harmful chemicals used in paper making
    Reforestation
    • Reforestation is restocking of the destroyed forests by planting new trees.
    • The planted trees should generally be of the same species which were found in that forest.
    • We should plant at least as many trees as we cut.
    • Reforestation can take place naturally also.
    • If the deforested area is left undisturbed,
    • it reestablishes itself.
    • In natural reforestation there is no role of human beings
    1. Deforestation causes
    and consequences
    (deforestation, 3. Flora, fauna and
    desertification and endemic species (species)
    droughts)

    4. Wildlife sanctuary and


    national park(project tiger,
    endangered animals,
    ecosystem)

    2. Overview of 5.Red data book,


    conservation of wildlife and migration, recycling of
    forests with it's importance paper and reforestation
    and Biosphere reserve in
    detail (protected areas)
