Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether the Pine Bush habitat of New York State is an example of preservation, restoration, or mixed-use conservation.
Introduction:
Conservation groups have put effort to preserve many animal species such as giant panda, California condor, and others. The preservation of animal species is not possible if their habitats are in threat. Conservation biologists have divided their approach of habitat preservation into three categories that are mixed-use conservation, preservation, and restoration.
