Stress tolerators can survive and reproduce under extreme environmental conditions, such as very low water availability, very cold temperatures, or high salt concentrations.

Ex - Lichen, Mangrove plant, cacti, Deserts animal.

Metapopulations

Separate Populations That Mutually Affect One Another via Dispersal Fragmented landscapes create fragmented populations, many of which may exchange individuals via migration, creating one linked population
