Protecting Endangered Animals

Question 1

A wildlife group wants to help the endangered red panda in the mountains. Which of the following three actions together represent three different conservation strategies, each paired with a real‑world example?

Accepted Answer

Create a protected forest reserve (e.g., the Red Panda Habitat Reserve in Nepal), start a captive‑breeding program at a zoo (e.g., the Chengdu Research Base in China), and run anti‑poaching patrols with local rangers (e.g., Bhutan’s patrols in Jigme Singye‑Wangchuck National Park).

Answer

Create a marine reserve (e.g., for coral reefs), launch a captive‑breeding program for sea turtles (e.g., on Florida’s coast), and enforce a law banning pet trade (e.g., the U.S. Endangered Species Act).

Answer

Establish a national park (e.g., the Great Himalayan National Park), set up a wildlife corridor (e.g., linking two forest patches in India), and establish another wildlife corridor (e.g., connecting habitats in Nepal).

Answer

Plant extra trees in the red panda’s forest, give families coupons for buying recycled paper, and produce a wildlife documentary about the species.

Question 2

Which of the following lists three correct ways people protect endangered animals, and gives a specific example for each?

Accepted Answer

Creating national parks (e.g., Yellowstone protects wolves), running captive‑breeding programmes (e.g., the California condor program), and patrolling against poaching (e.g., anti‑poaching teams in Kenya protect elephants).

Answer

Creating marine reserves (e.g., Great Barrier Reef), feeding wild animals in parks, and using pesticides to kill pests.

Answer

Making wildlife corridors (e.g., connecting forests in Brazil), banning plastic bags, and recycling paper.

Answer

Building more zoos (e.g., the San Diego Zoo), hunting endangered animals for sport, and planting trees in cities.

Question 3

A school environmental club wants to help the critically endangered Bornean orangutan. Which of the following groups of three actions correctly shows three different conservation strategies, each with a specific example?

Accepted Answer

Create a protected forest reserve in Borneo; start a community‑education program that teaches people to choose sustainable palm‑oil products; run a captive‑breeding program that raises orphaned orangutans and later releases them into the wild.

Answer

Plant new trees in the forest reserve; build a zoo in the city to display orangutans; ask students to recycle their plastic bottles.

Answer

Establish a marine protected area off the coast; launch a campaign to stop illegal shark fishing; create a wildlife corridor for mountain goats.

Answer

Ban all tourism in Borneo; give every child a pet orangutan; donate money to a generic wildlife charity without specifying a project.
