[Ecology] Summary of ‘Ecology of a changing planet’, Chapter 8

Conservation efforts must prioritise the well-being of local populations.

Natural populations seldom reach carrying capacity and are continually cut back by density-independent factors.

Organisms evolve to occupy a tightly defined niche. Only one species occupies a niche in one place at one time. Niche will decide the morphology of the organism. Unrelated species occupying similar niches are driven by natural selection to evolve similar traits.
