Habitat preservation is critical to maintaining a self-sustaining population of panthers in south Florida.
Therefore, it is important to preserve suitable habitat on private lands and intensively manage public lands to ensure the long-term survival of at least 50 adult panthers in the south Florida population, as recommended in the Florida Panther Viability Analysis and Species Survival Plan (Seal et al 1989).
Although suitable panther habitat may occur in other areas of Florida (and possibly other southeastern states), and anecdotal evidence suggests that panthers may exist elsewhere in the study area, the focus of this preservation plan is on priority habitats nearest the lands currently known to be occupied by panthers monitored via radio- telemetry.

 Tomorrow's habitat   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
The first question is relatively easy because the main determinants of the habitat of at least the next 15 years have been already heavily conditionned and even determined by the actions taken in the course of the last 10 years.
Habitat is probably the sector which illustrates best, and in a very concrete way, this social discrimination.
When we speak of "tomorrow's habitat" we must first of all ask how many millions are quite likely not to have the most elementary type of habitat by the end of the century.

 :: Welcome to Manila Bulletin Online ::
The significance of Malagos and its birds becomes obvious when one considers its status in the district: It serves as one of the watersheds of Davao City and it is also home to the Philippine Eagle Center.
The loss of habitats for birds is often matched by the actual hunt for them for various uses including food.
Bo also noted that when people encroach on forests, the birds inevitably lose their habitat to mankind and his way of life, which in turn affect man’s environment.

I do believe that the 21st century in history at this particular point on our human journey the reality of the city as the habitat of mankind is upon us and reality is frustrating a lot of us throwing us into confusion, into frustration, perhaps into despair.
It is therefore important that we try to understand a little bit more this dance between water and human settlements, this historic embrace throughout history mankind has lived by the water, used the water, evolved from the water and evolved with the water.
The complexities of the 21st century and the reality of globalization as a phenomenon with its stresses and strains, with its harshness, with its competition may yet turn this dance into a dance macabre and I think this is what we've been hearing for the last two days.

VANISHING HABITAT -- As mankind's seemingly insatiable appetite for land (slotted for commercial use) continues unabated, in its wake lie the ruins of large tracts of forest and other habitats once home to many an endangered species.
International commerce is the driving force behind deforestation, which directly impacts the gorillas by destroying their habitat and by facilitating the bushmeat trade.
The Gorilla Foundation is currently involved in an ambitious project to provide a secluded 70-acre reserve in Maui that simulates the natural habitats gorillas reside in, in Africa.

It, like the brown bear, is found in widely varying habitats.
This bear is found in steppe lands, rainforests, cloud forests, and even coastal scrub desert land.

 World Without Restraints
Revelation 12:7 depicts the outbreak of open rebellion in Heaven itself, when Lucifer, the covering Cherub of God, who was present at the dawn of all creation, and witnessed the love that the Creator had for his creatures on earth, grew prideful and jealous.
Undoubtedly, Lucifer was an observer of the plans God carefully orchestrated to establish a suitable and cosmologically functional habitat for mankind to live in.
More urgently though, mankind is being forewarned of God to heed the signals of the imminent evil day, when the Evil one is forever cast down out of Heaven, and fully aware that his time is very, very short!

 Ketcherside: Simple Trusting Faith: Chapter 4: God Has Spoken
The world of mankind is composed of individuals and it passes through the same stages as do the individuals.
If there are two systems of revelation adapted to the needs of mankind in succeeding ages, both professing to be of divine origin, the latter must consistently recognize and respect the former and defend its authority for the age to which it was given.
Any attempt to reflect upon the origin and validity of the previous revelation would result in one of three conclusions: the first was not of divine origin, or, the second was not of divine origin, or neither of the two was of divine origin.

 The Seven Hills of Babylon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
The realization that the concept of Babylon could cross national boundaries was a major leap in understanding the nature of the prophetic international empire that ruled the world in opposition to God.
In this respect, Babylon's seven hills seem to be a veiled reference to the seven continents, the land masses that constitute the planetary habitat of mankind.
Yet these seven hills have a spiritual reference that is just as international in scope and even more antagonistic to the will of the Creator.

Thanks to the pictures in tombs and on the walls of temples we know how geese were fattened in ancient Egypt, and how they were boiled or roasted.
But even though we know a lot about the history of the domestic Egyptian goose, mankind has not been able to unravel the mystery of its disappearance.
