   Sammanfattning : En förutsättning för att vi ska uppnå en hållbar utveckling är att vi bevarar den biologiska mångfalden, vilken bland annat hotas av införsel och spridning av invasiva främmande arter. Ett viktigt instrument för att skydda den biologiska mångfalden utgörs av de rättsliga ramar som satts upp på internationell, EU- och nationell nivå. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : African elephants are ‘keystone’ species with respect to biodiversity conservation in Africa since they maintain habitats that support several animal communities by changing vegetation structure through foraging and by dispersing seeds between landscapes. Elephants are also ‘flagship’ species because, given their impressive size, they can make people sympathetic and stimulate local and international concerns for their protection. LÄS MER
