the animal does not eat anything else.
this is not for my school work!!

the answer should benefit both the plant and the animal !!

the animal feeds on the plant only for food. the plant has nothing to do with the animal.

Answer 1

Its funny you ahould ask this...I saw a show on television a while back that had information on certain threatened plants.

It was really interesting what I saw. There is this tree on some medium size island that is going extinct because long ago peole visited the island and sadly killed all of the native wildlife on the whole island including large dodo like birds and giant tortoises. The mature trees on this island that are now thought to be over a thousand years old will soon be gone forever because the only way the land could be replenished with with its saplings was that the seed had to pass through one of the specific animals intestines and into their poop to be firtilized, most likely the tortoise scientists believe. But because these torts are no longer in existance the tree will eventually grow too old and die and be forever gone form this world. Its a shame cause these trees are soooo cool looking..cant remember the name of them or the island where they currently live.

Also in another case. Fig trees in south america can only be firtilized by a certain wasp, if this wasp is gone, the trees will die and go extinct. So to give an answer to you question. If this endangered animal is only eating an endangered plant, it is most likely meant to and will spread seeds in its poop. This plant may need this animal to survive and trive. Do you know what kind of animal and what plant it is? That may be more help if you do. I wouldnt hurt any of them, they are doing what they are supposed to do, it is nature.

Good luck and I hope I helped.

Answer 2

Allow the animal to continue to eat the plant, but work very hard at finding new and fast ways to grow the plant faster than than the animal eats it. You can try new, creative and innovative things with plants, but you not so much with plants. If this doesn't work, you should let nature take its course and not intervene. Animals problems are due largely in part to human intervention. I'd work on the plants first.

Answer 3

The environment is containing food chain for eg:humans depend on omnivores animals depend to plants and plants depend 2 air,water and soil all for food. so there's nothin 2 fear of......! if the endangered animal is eating an endangered plant so there is some chance for the plant 2 grow...!

Answer 4

I bet this is for your school work! When an endangered animal eats the plant it is not doing any harm because it is natural to that environment and its instincts tell it to eat the plant. Because the plant is endangered and scarce it is is probably the cause of the endangerment of the animal. What to do is remove the cause of the endangerment of the plant. Then the animal and plant will no longer be endangered.

Answer 5

guy, you have relatively painted your self right into a nook in this one. the possibilities of this happening are fairly small, thinking the low populations of each and every. the sole situation i will advise is doing a seek on Y!A. "What do you do once you spot an endangered animal eating an endangered plant?" gets asked a pair of situations a week by means of childrens who think of they're being smart. possibly you ought to assemble and tabulate the solutions. in case you checklist all of them, you ought to fill the paper with the solutions as an appendix.

Answer 6

In view of your clarification that the endangered animal doesn't eat anything else except the endangered plant, we need to quickly clone and multiply the plant so that it is abundantly available. And we should also preserve the animal through cryopreservation so that it can be cloned in future if needed.

Answer 7

Quick action for preservation and getting good number of copies of the animal and the plant as far as one can do .

Answer 8

Act responsibly and give it a ticket to appear in court and when it does defend its God given right to feed on what is natural to its own environment then to complete the food chain eat it in court so you can be endangered too.

Answer 9

Once the animal is done eating the plant and then kill the animal.

Answer 10

collect some of that plants' seeds and see if you can produce a hybrid that would grow effectively and produce more saplings. or grow the plant in lab gardens and replant a few in the natural habitat when a good number of them is produced
