Biodiversity Conservation

Choose the Correct Answer

Correct Answer : Option a

Explanation
Option (a) is Correct: The CMS classifies species into two appendices:
Appendix I: Includes migratory species that are endangered and require strict protection.
Appendix II: Lists species that require international cooperation for their conservation but may not necessarily be endangered.

Option (b) is not correct: The CMS does not mandate the creation of national parks or protected areas; instead, it promotes international collaboration for conservation.

Option (c) is not correct: The CMS covers both transboundary and intra-national migrations, meaning species that migrate within a single country can also be included.

Option (d) is not correct: The CMS is a global treaty, not a regional one, and it applies to all continents where migratory species exist.
