1 Annexes and schedules: rare and protected fish species and the law Richard Handley
2 Talk outline what does rare mean? why are rare and protected species important? what is protected?
3 What does rare mean? low abundance and/or small range not necessarily the same as threatened some species are intrinsically rare some have rarity thrust upon them
4 Why are species rare? habitat loss pollution over exploitation disease invasive species climate change
5 Why are rare and threatened species important intrinsic value ecologically significant providing ecosystem services iconic status
6 Species keep conservation efforts honest, and there is no surrogate metric that can reliably assess conservation success or failure without knowing what is happening to populations of plants and animals in the landscape. We would know nothing about the global loss of biodiversity without knowing what is happening to species all over the world.
7 What have fish ever done for us?
