From the utilitarian perspective, biodiversity is extremely valuable for the goods it produces (food, medicines, fuels, etc.), for the services it performs (pollination, soil protection, nutrient cycles, etc.), for the information that contributes (scientific knowledge) and even as a carrier of psycho-spiritual values ​​(beauty, religion, senses, etc.). But the Conservation of biodiversity at the present time is much more, it becomes even a matter of survival especially in a territory as small as that of the Canary Islands, where mismanagement of resources, can be at least, more serious than in large territories where demographic pressure is lower....
