Wild species’ survival should shape National Biodiversity Strategy

Despite ongoing conservation efforts across the country, biodiversity continues to decline, and the number of species at risk of extinction continues to grow.

Nobody should be surprised at biodiversity decline: massive losses of insects concerns no one (Bugs? Yuk) & small birds no one notices; soil microbes etc.. But, hey, save pandas! Megafauna at the top, numbers cascade down when systems supporting them (and us) are lost. We need to focus on systems.
