The ''EDGE of Existence programme'' is a research and conservation initiative that focuses on species deemed to be the world’s most ''Evolutionarily Distinct and Globally Endangered'' (EDGE). Developed by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), the programme aims to raise awareness of the world’s EDGE species, implement targeted research and conservation actions to halt their decline, and to train in-country scientists (called EDGE Fellows) to protect them now and in the future. == Goals == Summary of 2006 IUCN Red List categories. The EDGE programme seeks to: * Identify the current status of poorly known, endangered, vulnerable and possibly extinct EDGE species. * Develop and implement conservation measures for all EDGE species not currently protected. * Support local scientists to research and conserve EDGE species worldwide. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「EDGE of Existence programme」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
