Threats to the site (pressure)
Threat Level 1	Threat Level 2	Timing	Scope	Severity	Result
Agricultural expansion and intensification	livestock farming and ranching (includes forest grazing) - small-holder grazing, ranching or farming	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	slow but significant deterioration	medium
Biological resource use	hunting & collecting terrestrial animals - intentional use (species being assessed is the target)	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	very rapid to severe deterioration	high
Biological resource use	hunting & collecting terrestrial animals - persecution/control	likely in short term (within 4 years)	small area/few individuals (<10%)	very rapid to severe deterioration	low
Biological resource use	logging & wood harvesting - unintentional effects: subsistence/small scale	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Human intrusions and disturbance	work and other activities	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Natural system modifications	fire & fire suppression - increase in fire frequency/intensity	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
