Explanation:
Conservation biology is a scientific synthesis discipline that consolidated in the 1980s in response to the loss of biodiversity (Simberloff, 1988). It deals with studying the causes of the loss of biological diversity at all levels (genetic, individual, specific, ecosystem) and how to minimize this loss. Conservation biology also deals with the management of the nature and biodiversity of the Earth with the aim of protecting species, their habitats and ecosystems from excessive extinction rates and erosion of biotic interactions. To that end, it integrates contributions from very different disciplines that are based on natural and social sciences - such as ecology, genetics, biogeography, behavioral biology, political science, sociology, anthropology, etc. - and the practice of natural resource management.
