Explain how the hypotheses of island biogeography can be used to understand problems in conservation biology.

Sometimes, conservation biologists believe they do not need to take into account the possibility of evolutionary change in the organisms that they are interested in conserving. The argument is that anthropogenic (human induced) changes such as invasive species, habitat loss, pollution, and even climate change, occur on too rapid a timescale for evolutionary change to influence the organisms they are trying to manage.

Discuss whether you think this argument is correct, or if you think evolutionary biology relevant for conservation biology? Find an example or two to support your argument.

In the early years of the conservation movement (1970s), efforts were aimed mainly at the salvation of individual species—that is, saving them from extinction. Today, conservation biology is aimed more at the biodiversity of the entire community and the ecosystem. Explain in detail why there has been this shift in focus. Give a specific example.
