Racing Extinction Reflections Bullet point list – causes of extinction Describe your gut feeling when the final credits for Racing Extinction began rolling. Did the film instill a sense of hope or despair within you? Discuss the phrase: art as activism. How are photojournalism and wildlife photography able to inspire and activate the public into action? In which ways is imagery more important than words?

A Brief History of Conservation 1972 – Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) 1973 – Endangered Species Act (ESA) 1976 – Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation & Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) There had been a few Acts before the ESA, but this was the first to include plants, animals, vert/inverts.

Listing Factors 1. Habitat destruction 2. Overutilization for commercial, recreational, scientific, or educational purposes 3. Disease or predation 4. Lack of regulations 5. Other natural or manmade factors affecting the species' continued existence

Adopt an Endangered Species Project

Description of Project Each year, organisms are added to the Endangered Species List for a variety of reasons. Organizations attempt to raise money for the conservation of these species by allowing people to “adopt” an organism of concern. Your task is to research a marine plant or animal currently on the ESL and create the packet that would be given to a potential donor.

Description of the animal & its habitat Physical characteristics Historically, where was this animal found? Where do you currently find it? Describe the organism’s habitat.

Continued… Diet What does it eat/how does it obtain energy? What predators does it have? Describe a food chain involving this organism.

Continued… History How did this organism end up on the Endangered Species List? When was this organism listed on the ESA? Was it ever listed as threatened? Original numbers vs. current numbers What, if anything, is currently being done to increase the numbers of this organism? What specific organizations are involved?
