Threats to the site (pressure)
Threat Level 1	Threat Level 2	Timing	Scope	Severity	Result
Agricultural expansion and intensification	annual & perennial non-timber crops - agro-industry farming	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
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%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Biological resource use	logging & wood harvesting - unintentional effects: subsistence/small scale	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Invasive and other problematic species and genes	invasive non-native/alien species/diseases - unspecified species	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	low
Residential and commercial development	housing and urban areas	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	low
