ANIMAL-AIDED DESIGN<\/span><\/h1><\/h1><\/div>Species Portraits<\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>The Animal-Aided Design (AAD) method uses species portraits as part of the design process. A species portrait provides all the essential information planners need to design for a specific target species. In particular, it outlines the special habitat requirements of a species \u2014 referred to as its critical habitat factors. For each phase of the species\u2019 life cycle, the portrait specifies which critical habitat factors must be taken into account.<\/p>\n
Each species portrait begins with a brief description of the species \u2014 what it looks like, where it lives, how to identify it, how it can be perceived by humans, what benefits it provides, and which potential conflicts may occur. This is followed by a description of the critical habitat factors according to life stages, along with planning guidance for implementation. Finally, the portrait includes additional information about the species that may be of interest to planners or citizens.<\/p>\n
Species portraits are developed with great care, based on current scientific literature and in consultation with experts. Whenever new insights emerge on how to support a species\u2019 survival in urban environments, they are incorporated into the portrait. Thus, species portraits are living documents that reflect the current state of knowledge.<\/p>\n
