Population Viability Analysis (PVA)

Population Viability Analysis (PVA) is a scientific method used to assess the likelihood that a species will survive over a specific period. It considers factors like birth rates, death rates, environmental conditions, and human impacts to predict future population trends. By analyzing these variables, PVA helps conservationists determine the risk of extinction and identify effective strategies to protect and manage endangered species, ensuring they have the best chance to persist in their natural habitats.
