Surprisingly, pollution and introduced species, both of which are widely believed to
be major causes of
species
Patient
endangerment
(Wilson 1992), are less important than either native species interactions or natural
causes, neither of which are even listed as potential threats in similar studies
(Wilcove et al. 1998).
