Summary

The forester says that most forests are currently fragmented and sickly. Fragmented forests usually can’t stay alive long-term. However, some fragmented forests are the only habitat for endangered species. Finally, to keep all the plants and animals in a fragmented forest alive, the forest needs regular interventions by resource managers.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

These facts support the following conclusions:


At least some fragmented forests used to have the ability to sustain themselves long-term.

Most forests will lose plant or animal species without regular interventions by resource managers.

Regular interventions by resource managers are required to protect some of the world’s most endangered species.
