Animals could become extinct by 2015

Maybe I can feel powerless, but it is important to know what is happening with endangered species to raise awareness of it. A combination of events has led to hundreds of plant and animal species on the planet are disappearing: factors such as climate change, illegal trafficking of species, the destruction of ecosystems, etc., they have made at least 30 to 50% species may be close to extinction by the end of this century.

Sea cow
By its appearance, this is one of the rarest and most curious species of the planet like a dolphin but with some nice stained eyes, like a panda. It is estimated that today only live about 100 specimens of this animal.



Amur leopard 
Until today are about 30 specimens of this species, considered one of the most beautiful on the planet for their spot patterns. In its natural state, Amour leopard lives within the boundaries of eastern Russia and northeastern China.



Leatherback
This is the world's largest turtle, leatherback turtle also known as: the largest specimen ever recorded weighed up to 916kg. Its population has declined significantly by factors such as intake of waste plastic bags on beaches and at sea, tourism developments on the beaches, which undermines the nesting, and fishing.



Siberian Tiger
It is the largest feline, majestic species. He lives in Siberia, and ecosystem degradation in the lowlands of Asia and Russia, are believed to exist today 400 to 500 members of the species.


The Saola or Vu Quang ox
It is a peculiar species by its strange beauty. It is also known as the Asian unicorn; very little has been photographed, and its spots and horn are soulful. It is believed that there are only 100 of these specimens, as usually hunted for traditional Chinese and Vietnamese medicine. This species lives in the mountains of Vietnam and Laos.

  1. I think it would be very sad that any species became extinct because they are living beings and we have to take care

  2. I've been thinking that maybe we should give more support to the cause. I see you really like it (like me but I like to be more than help anonymous) we should create our own group of environmental conscious

  3. Because we think that all these beautiful species disappear and I think we should raise awareness " that are destroying wildlife " and that if we so future generations will not know a diverse country like the species even try to keep. I completely agree with you and I feel great that lean such a noble cause :3
