Description	We are in the midst of the sixth global mass extinction event (McNeely & Scherr, 2002; Thomas et al., 2004). Around the globe, biological communities that took millions of years to develop-including tropical rain forests, coral reefs, old-growth forests, prairies and coastal wetlands-have been devastated as a result of human actions. Biologists predict that tens of thousands of species and millions of unique populations will go extinct in the coming decades (Brown & Laband, 2006; Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005a). If the current predictions are correct, the rates of environmental changes may outpace the capacities of organisms to adapt to the changes. There are seven major threats to biodiversity: habitat estruction; habitat fragmentation; habitat degradation (including pollution); global climate change; the overexploitation of species for human use; the invasion of exotic species; and the increased spread of disease. Most threatened species and ecosystems face at least two or more of these threats, which can interact synergistically to speed the way to extinction and hinder efforts at protecting biodiversity (Burgman et al., 2007; Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005b). All seven threats are the result of an expanding human population's ever increasing use of the world's natural resources (Primack, 2008).
