The current strategy to save endangered species in North America is to build back populations to a level that avoids extinction, then support stops.
🐻 Three North American species: gray wolves, grizzly bears and bison are examples of how local restrictions after they reached minimal levels prevented the species to thrive.
🪶 Restrictions also limit ability of indigenous people to maintain a cultural connection.
📈 A better conservation strategy would be to measure success by creating a thriving population participating in its natural habitat. But this would require a new vision and policies.

"Always On The Move" for #WildlifeWednesday & #MeerMittwoch
Twentyone Sanderlings (Calidris alba) and an incoming wave. These little birds (winter visitors to our beaches) forage in the intertidal zone, pulling small creatures out of the soft sand. They are always on the move, running away with each incoming wave, and then straight back in.
