Summary

Anguilla’s biodiversity has declined due to invasive aliens and other pressures, and the changing climate could be the final straw. Focusing on critically threatened plants and reptiles and informed by stateof-the-art modelling, stakeholders will devise and launch the first species conservation plans aimed at achieving resistance to climate change. This game-changing project will then implement strategic actions, including combatting invasive aliens and reintroducing endemics to former ranges, so that even by the project end, priority species are substantially more resilient.
