  Figure: Changing distribution of land mammal4+y. gcmw2h2 htlh(r xs


Describe the reason for the changing distribution of the world's mammals.
I.
The increase in human population meant that more food was needed, causing an increase in livestock.
II.
The wild land mammals lost their territory as well as being hunted and therefore declined in numbers.
III.
The human population increased the most in the last century as compared to previous time periods and therefore impacted the changing distributions.

  Fact file on the grey w( juq yz,)mjmg d3,1qkolf (Canis lupus)

Wolves occur naturally in North America and Eurasia.
Wolves prey on wild animals such as deer, boar and hares, keeping their population numbers in check.
Wolves may prey on domestic animals such as sheep, causing an economic loss to the sheepherder.
A mature female wolf may give birth to 6-8 pups yearly.
Wolves are territorial, claiming a large area of land for their pack.
Humans have hunted wolves to extinction in several countries.
Most countries in the European Union now protect the wolf by law.
Since 2015, wolves have returned to The Netherlands, a small, densely populated northern European country.
Approximately 20% of the land area in The Netherlands is protected in some way or another.
Identify a factor that may limit the growth of the wolf population in The Netherlands.

Determine which of the following statements could be an explanation for the trends seen in the Figure.

I.
Due to climate, the south is more tropical and therefore more biodiverse and therefore has more potential species that could become endangered.
II.
The south contains more LEDCs (less economically developed countries) and therefore is likely to have less legislation and money to protect species.
