Obstacle:
It is about the problem of invasive alien species. The way to solve the problem: firstly, prevent the problem; secondly, take appropriate biosecurity measures whenever possible. Thirdly, kill the alien species, although it is the last to consider.

Squirrels heat their tails up to protect baby squirrels away from rattlesnakes.

2 - 377 - 2'20
T studied squirrels' features and found several  facts:
abundant species
relationship with trees: good & harm
self-made mushroom jerky
food storage strategies

Flying squirrels deserve protection from people.
The author describes the creature's features.

5 - 229 - 1'23
Several institutions make a process to protect flying squirrels.

6 - 399 - 1'50
This part tells the process of rescuing the giant squirrel from distinction: origin, development and future.

Obstacle - 1181 - 7'38
The author first tells the fact that gray squirrels are driving red squirrel into extinction. Based on this example, the passage then discusses the problem of invasive species: examples of other invasive events, the disadvantages, reasons to accelerate the process(global climate change) and ways to protect local species(two lines of defense: biosecurity measures and new threates identify). In the end, the author talks about people's opinion of the protecting action.

看完我就在想：人类这种排外护内的行为，到底是对自然的保护？还是变相迫害？达尔文说物竞天择，适者生存。也许人类的所作所为，掠夺资源也好，保护物种也罢，根本上也是大自然的进化？

Time 2: 1:40

We don’t know everything about squirrels. A researcher, who published 2 two books on squirrels, gives some distinct characteristics of squirrels. 1, squirrels are everywhere, and we can escape squirrels only on polar area. 2, squirrels are beneficial to trees ,since they store seeds squarely, so that seeds have better chances to germinate. 3, squirrel are harmful to trees, since some of them eat seeds immediately or store them in places where seeds are unlikely to germinate.

Time 3: 1:52

Trees manage to get back on squirrels by making their seeds harder to achieve or making their seeds less nutritious. 4, squirrels have more complex capabilities of storing food, for example making mushroom jerky. 5, squirrels know how to distinguish different kinds of seeds and deal with them accordingly. All in all, the more you study squirrels, the more interesting things you will find about them.

Time 4: 1:35

So little we know about flying squirrel, no one seems to study them and they are only found in certain areas. Enormous efforts have been made to put them under federal protection. Recently, FWS finally decided to recommend flying squirrels for or against protection, by April 2016.

Time 5: 1:05

FWS finally moved into the next step along the process of applying for protection for flying squirrels, although it failed to do so long time ago. In the petition CBD gives several reasons to explain why flying squirrels are endangered. The next 18 months may be decisive to whether we can see these endangering little creatures or not in the future.

Time 6: 2:05

The recovery of a particular kind of squirrels is described and delisting the squirrel is not done yet. Everyone who concerns about the squirrel can comment on the delisting decision. If there is no unidentified dangers to the squirrel, it will be delisted for the endangered animal list. But FWS will keep tracking it for several years to make sure everything is ok for them.

Obstacle: 5:52

Non-native animals can be detrimental to native animals, several reasons and examples are given in the passage. And the protection measures and examples are given as well.

Time 4:02:05.85
the institution decided to pretect the subspacie, SB squirrels.The infomation of the squirrels : live exclusively in SB mountain. median-size,they can't expanse the range
Time 5:01:30.23
The CBD said that the rare squirrels would face threats: the shortage of food due to the climate chage and drought. the fact that more and more people move into the inhabit with dog and cat made the loss of inhabits of Sb squirrels
Time 6:02:30.39
ESA help the fox squirrels to get back 40% inhabits.
the number of squirrels keep stable. the next threats are raising sea-level, inhabitation loss and so on.
