This emphasizes that species recovery is conceptually different from extinction risk and reinforces the utility of the IUCN Green Status of Species to more fully understand species conservation status. Although extinction

Systematic conservation planning identifies priority areas to cost-effectively
meet conservation targets. Yet, these tools rarely guide wholesale declaration
of reserve systems in a single time step due to financial and implementation
constraints. Rather, incremental scheduling of actions to progressively build
reserve networks is required. To ensure this incremental action is guided by
the original plan, and thus builds a reserve network that meets all conservation
targets, strategic scheduling, and iterative planning is needed

For successful conservation of biodiversity, it is vital to know whether protected areas in increasingly fragmented landscapes effectively safeguard species. However, how large habitat fragments must be, and what level of protection is required to sustain species, remains poorly known.

Conservation science is having a reckoning with parachute science. In the parachute science models, scientists drop into a foreign country with preconceived notions, seeking to validate their assumptions without genuine
engagement with local people, ideas, epistemologies, methodologies,
and knowledges, and leave without giving back to the
place from which they extracted.
