User:Myosotisx13/Flagship species

The use of flagship species has some limitations:


 * They can skew the management and conservation priorities in their favour, to the detriment of more threatened but less charismatic species.
 * The management of different flagships can conflict.
 * The disappearance of the flagship can have negative impacts on the attitudes of the conservation stakeholders.
 * They may have limited impact on the behaviour of donors, if the donors cannot dedicate much time to processing the campaign message.
 * Most conservation practices for flagship species tend to be costly and difficult to maintain
