Which wildlife conservation strategy protects entire ecosystems rather than a single species?
In-situ conservation
In-situ conservation protects entire ecosystems and habitats in their natural setting, rather than focusing on a single species.
Seed banks and captive breeding focus on preserving specific species or genetic material, while biodiversity hotspots identify regions of high diversity without necessarily being a conservation strategy itself.
Hence, 'In-situ conservation' is the correct answer.
