The Earth — and its wildlife — are undergoing a crisis at human hands.
Species are disappearing at such alarming rates that some scientists have dubbed this era the Holocene Extinction – the
sixth mass extinction of species the world has seen.
More than 320 species have died out over the past millenium – a devastating rate of more than one species every two
years. The International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species also estimates that 32% of
the world’s remaining populations — across all species and ecosystems — are dwindling.
Climate change, pollution, poaching, habitat loss from development and deforestation, and other human activities are all
factors.
We must do everything in our power to save endangered animals. Without urgent action, these beautiful and diverse
species could soon be gone forever- a catastrophic loss that could jeopardize entire ecosystems.
