6) According to Berg, Hagar, Goodman, & Baydack (2010)
Ecosystem Management is an evolving concept that
recognizes the need to use ecological components in
environmental decision making. It is useful in the
conservation of biological diversity because it helps
to examine species at risk. It can also be used to
manage and sustain threatens species in an area.
