Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason that it is always not possible to restore the same species that used to occur at a site.
Introduction: The threatened species can be protected after the endangerment of the species is known. The recovery plan is useful to combat the extinction of a species. Human activities like overharvesting, pollutions, and overexploitation can be reduced to a certain extent.
