Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat level 1	Threat level 2	Timing	Scope	Severity	Result
Agricultural expansion and intensification	annual & perennial non-timber crops - shifting agriculture	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Biological resource use	hunting & collecting terrestrial animals - unintentional effects (species is not the target)	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Biological resource use	logging & wood harvesting - unintentional effects: subsistence/small scale	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	slow but significant deterioration	medium
Human intrusions and disturbance	work and other activities	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Natural system modifications	dams & water management/use - large dams	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Transportation and service corridors	roads and railroads	likely in long term (beyond 4 years)	small area/few individuals (<10%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	low
