Figure 24.2a What is a species Eastern meadowlark (Sturnella magna) and western meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta) © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. That “Mystery of Mysteries” first appearance of creatures on EARTH . In the Galápagos Islands Darwin discovered plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth . Volcanic islands – relatively new – therefore species relatively new !! © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 24.1 Flightless bird Endemic species Galápagos giant tortoise, another species unique to the islands © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Speciation, the origin of new species, is at the focal point of evolutionary theory . Evolutionary theory must explain how new species originate and how populations evolve . Microevolution consists of changes in allele frequency in a population over time . Macroevolution refers to broad patterns of evolutionary change above the species level © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Concept 24.1: The biological species concept emphasizes reproductive isolation . Species is a Latin word meaning “kind” or “appearance” . Biologists compare morphology, physiology, biochemistry, and DNA sequences when grouping organisms © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The Biological Species Concept . The biological species concept states that a species is a group of populations whose members have the potential to interbreed in nature and produce viable, fertile offspring; they do not breed successfully with members of other populations . Gene flow between populations holds a species together genetically © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 24.2 (a) Similarity between different species (b) Diversity within a species © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Reproductive Isolation . Reproductive isolation is the existence of biological factors (barriers) that impede two species from producing viable, fertile offspring . Hybrids are the offspring of crosses between different species . Reproductive isolation can be classified by whether factors act before or after fertilization © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Habitat isolation: Two species encounter each other rarely, or not at all, because they occupy different habitats, even though not isolated by physical barriers © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Temporal isolation: Species that breed at different times of the day, different seasons, or different years cannot mix their gametes © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Reduced hybrid viability: Genes of the different parent species may interact and impair the hybrid’s development or survival in its environment © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Reduced hybrid fertility: Even if hybrids are vigorous, they may be sterile © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Hybrid breakdown: Some first-generation hybrids are fertile, but when they mate with each other or with either parent species, offspring of the next generation are feeble or sterile © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Limitations of the Biological Species Concept . The biological species concept cannot be applied to fossils or asexual organisms (including all prokaryotes) . The biological species concept emphasizes absence of gene flow . However, gene flow can occur between distinct species . For example, grizzly bears and polar bears can mate to produce “grolar bears” © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 24.4 ▶ Grizzly bear (U. arctos) ▶ Polar bear (U. maritimus) ▶ Hybrid “grolar bear” © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Liger = male lion, female tiger Liliger = male lion, female Liger Tigon = male tiger, female lion Titigon = male tiger, female tigon © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Other Definitions of Species . Other species concepts emphasize the unity within a species rather than the separateness of different species . The morphological species concept defines a species by structural features . It applies to sexual and asexual species but relies on subjective criteria © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The ecological species concept views a species in terms of its ecological niche . It applies to sexual and asexual species and emphasizes the role of disruptive selection © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Ecological species concept A species is a set of organisms exploiting a single niche. The key aspects of this definition are the resources exploited and the habitat occupied by the members of a species. niche = the position or function of an organism in a community of plants and animals. 31 © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The phylogenetic species concept defines a species as the smallest group of individuals on a phylogenetic tree . It applies to sexual and asexual species, but it can be difficult to determine the degree of difference required for separate species © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Phylogenetic species concept A species may be defined by its unique genetic history as a tip of a phylogenetic tree. Species are defined by their unique derived features and shared ancestry. 33 © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc..

We exchanged several communications in the ensuing months. Then, on Friday, the 13th of June, Kevin Anderson and I enjoyed an unusually “close encounter” with the board members of CRS here in Kansas City. CSAMA was invited to join the leadership of CRS for dinner and, later, coffee.

This is a civil action against Jeffrey Lowe, Lauren Lowe, Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park, LLC (“GWEAP LLC”), and Tiger King, LLC (together “Defendants”) for violations of section 9 of the Endangered Species Act (“ESA”), 16 U.S.C. § 1538(a)(1), (g), and violations of the Animal Welfare Act (“AWA”), 7 U.S.C. §§ 2134, 2159. 2. In January 2018, Jeffrey Lowe claimed to have “learned a lot about distracting, diverting attention, & using smoke and mirrors in the last few years.” Lowe has said, “If we lose a lawsuit, we simply change the name and open another animal business someplace else, we all have multiple USDA licenses available.” U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”)-APHIS- Animal Care Animal Welfare Complaint No. AC18-426, at 197 (May 18, 2018). 6:20-cv-00423-JFH Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 11/19/20 Page 2 of 47 3.
