Test The effect of monad on species conservation
Agenda
QUESTION 1: What types of animals are overwhelmingly focused on in species conservation campaigns?
In "ugly" but ecologically important species
In animals that seem "cute" or charismatic to us, like the panda bear
In reptiles, amphibians and insects
In species that are less likely to become extinct
QUESTION 2: What reasons, in practice, often decide which species receive more attention and funding?
Purely scientific reasons
The importance of the species for the ecosystem
The number of specimens left of the species
Aesthetic and commercial reasons
QUESTION 3: What is the consequence of the "cuteness bias" for "ugly" species?
They are in serious danger of extinction and receive very little attention
They receive the majority of conservation funds
They are the protagonists of the most effective campaigns
Their fate matters to us more than that of large mammals
QUESTION 4: Why is the panda bear the paradigmatic example of this bias?
Because it is an ecologically unimportant animal
Because it is a species that is not in danger of extinction
Because its features, similar to the "baby scheme", have made it a global icon of conservation
Because their conservation campaign is ineffective in raising donations
QUESTION 5: What ethical debate does the "cuteness bias" raise?
Whether conservation priorities should be based on subjective emotions or scientific criteria
If pandas are more important than koalas
Whether fundraising campaigns should use photos of animals
If aesthetics is the only valid criterion for conservation
QUESTION 6: Environmental organizations know that a campaign is more effective if they use the image of
A bat or a snake
An insect in danger of extinction
An "ugly" but ecologically crucial species
A seal pup or a koala
QUESTION 7: What does the "cuteness bias" show us about our decisions?
That rationality always prevails in important matters
That our emotions do not influence our decisions
That our emotions can distort our decisions, even in areas where rationality should prevail
That we always make the most ethical and scientific decisions
8th QUESTION: What is the characteristic of "ugly" species?
They are less important to the ecosystem than large mammals
They can be ecologically as important or more so than large mammals
Your destiny matters a lot to us
They receive a lot of attention and funds
