Requirements include:

• freedom from human disturbance for all or part of the life cycle.

Threats include:

• the construction of access roads into wilderness. These bring increased numbers of humans and improve predator mobility.

• repeated low intensify disturbances (e.g. photographers, researchers).

• aircraft and helicopters.

Strategies

Protect habitats

• Acquire habitat by purchase or via dedication during land subdivision, development permit, or rezoning processes.
• Require conservation covenants on habitats during the land subdivision, development permit or rezoning processes.

Discourage human access

• Restrict access to known habitats on local government lands.
• Regulate the timing of development activities to minimize disturbance in nearby habitats
• Include information on the sensitivity of the species and their habitat in public education materials and programming.
