ENDANGERED SPECIES OF THE WORLD
3
Extinction is complete disappearance of species
Endangered species Extinction is complete disappearance of species Endangered species are the species which are in abundant before but now are in serious risk of extinction
4
Pollution, Commercial Overexploitation, poaching and deforestation.
Why are species endangered There are many ways of species getting endangered : Predators hunting them Climate changes Less availability of food Habitat destroyed Pollution, Commercial Overexploitation, poaching and deforestation.
5
Why should we conserve them
Most of the philosophers say that we wont save the species how are we going to save us from being extinct. A better knowledge and understanding of animals gives us a better understanding of our own species. The will to protect animals and nature in general demonstrates the value of a society. We have to care about about them because without them there would be a chaos in natural food chains . Destroying many more species in food chain.

Reasons why animals are endangerd
Reason 1: Habitat destruction Every living organism needs a place to live, but a habitat is not just a residence. It also is where an animal finds food, raises its young and allows the next generation to take over. Humans destroy animal habitats in a number of different ways: Building houses, clearing forests to get lumber and farm crops human development of animals' habitats pollutes the natural landscape with petroleum products, pesticides, and other chemicals. Some species die outright while others are pushed into areas where they can't find food and shelter.
7
Reason 2 : Illegal hunting and poaching
Many hunters ignore rules that regulate the number of animals that should be hunted (a practice known as poaching), they can reduce populations to the point that species become endangered. Poachers are often hard to catch because they are deliberately trying to evade authorities, and they operate in areas where enforcement is traditionally weak. And poachers have developed sophisticated techniques for smuggling animals. Baby bears, leopards, and monkeys have been sedated and stuffed into suitcases for transport. Live animals are sold to people who want exotic pets or medical research subjects. Animal pelts and other body parts are also secretly smuggled across borders and sold through black market networks of buyers who pay high prices for illegal animal products.
8
Climate changes and hunting by predators:
Animals can be affected by climate changes as a change in climate could bring a drastic change in growth and reproduction in species as species should adopt themselves to the change which doesn't happen in 1 day but many years or months. Animals can also be affect by growth of number of species in their predators . If number of predators increase they will be hunted in more numbers by predators for food.

tiger
11
Why it is endangered The primary threats to the survival of Siberian tigers are poaching and habitat loss from intensive logging and development. Tigers are being hunted to extinction by poachers for their skins, bones, teeth and claws, which are highly valued for their use in traditional Asian medicine (TAM), various folk remedies and various products.

Why to save endangered tiger
So when a species goes extinct, it leaves behind a scar, which affects the entire ecosystem. Another reason why we need to save the tiger is that our forests are water catchment areas. ... The tiger is a unique animal which plays a pivotal role in the health and diversity of an ecosystem.
15
How panda became endangered
Panda , most commonly known as china's national animal has once been endangered . Giant pandas are once endangered due to hunting and habitat loss. The panda's primary habitat is the Yangtze Basin region. Fragmentation of the area caused by roads and railroads has isolated panda populations, which not only prevents them from meeting and mating, but also reduces their access to bamboo.
16
why isn't panda endangered anymore
Pandas are no longer an endangered species; they're now considered "vulnerable" to extinction. China has been aware of their decline since the 1960s, when the first panda reserves were established, according to the WWF. Proud of us that we humans have spent half century to save pandas No no no no ….. But wait u have to work more its predicted that 37 % of bamboo forests will be damaged in next 80 years due to climate changes . Help save pandas by keeping the earth pollution free

Endangered animal of Indonesia

KOMODO DRAGON
20
Why it is endangered There is a stable population of about 3,000 to 5,000 Komodo dragons on the islands of Komodo, Gila Motang , Rinca , and Flores. However, a dearth of egg-laying females, poaching, human encroachment, and natural disasters has driven the species to endangered status
21

22
Why to save endangered komodo dragon
Another reason they're becoming extinct is because people have captured the dragons, and then they sell them as pets or kill them for their body parts. The Indonesian government protects Komodo dragons from poachers. Scientists are also trying to save their habitat.
23
Endangered animal of new zealand
24
kiwi
25
Why it is endangered Kiwi are flightless, nocturnal birds that are native to New Zealand. There are five recognized species of kiwi, and with 400 remaining individuals, the rarest is the critically endangered Rowi of New Zealand's Okarito forest
26
Why to save endangered kiwi
About 50% of all kiwi eggs fail to even hatch – sometimes because of natural bacteria, sometimes because the adult bird is disturbed by predators. Of eggs that do hatch, about 90% of chicks are dead within 6 months. 70% of these are killed by stoats or cats, and about 20% die of natural causes or at the jaws and claws of other predators. Only 10% of kiwi chicks make it to six months. Fewer than 5% reach adulthood If we even don’t save 5% even they may come to extinct

Endangered animal of AUSTRALIA

Kangaroos endangered????? Did u ever know that kangaroo ,mostly known for its tricks in kick boxing, is endangered once. ???????? They are an endangered species because their desert habitat has been turned into oil fields and farmland. The Giant Kangaroo Rat lives in the desert of San Joaquin Valley, located in the western part of the United States of America.
30
Why isnt kangaroo endangered now
The Giant Kangaroo Rat has survived by adapting to the desert. Then can again be endangered due to human activities like killing for skin , poaching etc…
32
How can we save kangaroos
Adopt a kangaroo Take action by visiting a wildlife sanctuary Speak for wildlife, live for wildlife Stay informed about updates of levels in endangerment of species They can be saved by defending them from there predators
