Revised Research Plan

Title: Saving endangered species

Topic Focus: How can we protect endangered species? How can we decrease the amount of endangered species? -and protect their habitat

Scope: In my project, I plan to cover information about endangered species. Statistics about endangered species, endangered species list, past and present efforts to protect them, causes for their endangerment, effects of humans and development on these species, and solutions to help protect them, and bring them off the endangered species list.

Outline: What is endangered species, -end. sp. stats & the list, -causes of end. sp. (humans & other causes), -past & present efforts, -solutions, programs, what you can do.

Academic Disciplines: Some subject areas that may have information on this topic are environmental studies, natural resources, wildlife preservation, zoology.

Key Terms: Endangered species, world wildlife foundation, exctinct species, natural resource preservation, wildlife protection, rare species, endangered species list, save endangered species
Note: I have discovered a few new key terms: Poaching, Extinct species, illegal hunting, wildlife conservation, conservation efforts, threatened species,

Nature of Topic: I think that periodicals and research articles would be the source that would have the most information on my subject. There will be a few books on the subject as well. I will also most likely find a lot of information about this subject on the internet.
Environmentalists, Natural resource specialists, wildlife foundations, and Animal rights people will be most interested in this topic.

Library of Congress Classification (LC) Areas: SF for animal cultures, QH for natural history, QL for zoology. I didn't see any specific call numbers in the library of congress classification list.
