Make A Big Difference

What do we understad with the term endangered species?
How can a species be endangered?

Endangered species are plant or animal species that are fastly decreasing in population and is highly possible to be extinct.It is very alarming to know that many kinds of species becomes endangered and almost every year becomes extinct.Even here in Philippines, many kinds of species are considered already as endangered species such as, our very own Philippine Eagle,tamaraw and the Philippine turtle.

Sad to say,majority of the reasons of these species to be endangered is causes by no other than us humans.We humans are the one who causes polution that causes the Greenhouse effect that ruins their adaptations to their environment.And most of all we are the one who hunts them illegaly to trade them.

And to stop other species to be endangered and to prevent endangered species to be extinct.Us humans can do things that can help them.Even simply planting a tree on your backyard can help the birds to have a shelter and also to clean our polluted air.By simply throwing your trash on the trashbin and not on the river can help the fishes have a clearer and cleaner shelter underwater.

So take the challenge and do simple things to MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE!

It is Possible!

What is endangered species? It is the species whose numbers are so small that the species is at risk of extinction. As we all know,endangered and extinct species has a life.A life is an asset of real value of human effort and sacrifice.In our time today, there are species that is really endangered.Don't you think that we, people who used to see them should take good care of them?We should do it not only for our selves but also to them.

More then 13 million species remain to be discovered in the world.More than 16,100 are likely to become extinct.Their natural ecosystems are vanishing at an alarming rate. By means of preserving, we can help them!Let's say that lets make a sanctuaries for them.So, they can be able to reproduce and their species can be multiplied again.

We should not harm the endangered species instead, we should help them!If they will not be save there's a posibility that no one will left alive for the next generation.

White Tigers

Endangered species are organisms that are in danger of extinction. White Tigers or also known as Bengal Tigers are one those endangered species

The white tiger, also known as the Bengal tiger is about 3 meters long, and weighs for about 180-285 kg. White tigers are white colored bengals, they are not albinos and they are not a seperate subspecies of tigers. They have blue eyes, a pink nose and a white furr covered with chocolate colored stripes. White tigers are born to tigers that carry the unusual gene needed for white coloring. Wild white tigers are very rare since they are endangered. They are usually located in Souteast Asia and in central and southern India. The white Bengal tiger lives in grassy or swampy areas and forests, where they can be well camouflaged. Those living on islands have almost disappeared; most now live in zoo. Even though it is illegal, white tigers are hunted in many Asian countries. Tiger’s body parts are sought for use in traditional Chinese medicine and exotic recipes. Their body parts can be sold, so to many people this is the animal to hunt if they want some fast money. But if we help each other to stop these greedy hunters we can save these Bengal Tigers and other endangered animals .

Why do Animals Get Extinct

The people today are hunting animals in the jungle so they can put it in the zoo

and some of people hunt them for food i have only one thing to say do not harm

ther ofspring so they can reproduce them self if we stop killing inocent animals

they will not fight back just leave them alone in there nature so they can live peacefuly

in ther own habitat.

Promote Animal Rights!

Life on Earth is in the throes of a new wave of mass extinction, unlike anything since the demise of the dinosaurs. In the last 500 years, 844 species - like the passenger pigeon, auk, thylacine, and quagga - are known to have died out, and up to 16,000 others are now known to be threatened. Two thirds of turtles could be gone by the 2025, great apes have recently declined by over 50% in parts of Africa, half of marsupials and one in three amphibians are in jeopardy, and a staggering 40% of Asia's plants and animals could soon be lost.

But this may only be a fraction of the true number facing extinction. Though only 1.5 million species have been described, there could be between 5 to 30 million in total. Of these, some experts predict that one could be falling extinct every 20 minutes - or 27,000 a year.

Conservationists argue that humans have an ethical obligation to protect other species, that diversity and natural beauty are highly prized by mankind, and that biodiversity is a vital resource: we rely on ecosystems to provide food, oxygen and natural resources, recycle wastes and fertilise soils for agriculture. The total value of services provided to man by nature has been estimated atann $33 trillion annually..

For this project in science, I covered about some of the endangered species around the world.Great apes in africa began

to fade away because of human's carelessness.Many of

us ignore about the issues of latest endangered species and neglect them instead of adopting or saving them,worse,

many people kills them.I've chose this topic because i want myself and to all of you to be aware about the condition

of our animals today.Remember,they are also living things-and they expect that we will respect them too. Cows, turtles, pigs,and some animals sacrifice their lives to give us what we need,...food,clothes,...and others.We must respect them

in little ways such that we can show them that we are respecting them too.I hope that you learned a lot from my research

and my reaction too on how we must be aware of our surroundings with enough knowledge, wisdom and respect for

every living being. PROMOTE ANIMAL RIGHTS!!!!!

We Can Save Them!

Endangered species are plants and animals species that are in danger of extinction,the dying of all individuals of its species or in short the total disapprearance of the species itself. There were over 19,000 plant species and 5000 animal species around the globe are classified as endanged, and many of those become extinct every year even before we know it. No more than one-tenth of the estimated 10-50 million of species of invertebrate have been described. There are primary causes of extinction and sadly most of it are done by humans.

One cause of extinctionis by habitat destruction. Mostly we develop forests for subdivisions and other economical improvement without knowing that we are already destroying thei habitats. Second example is commercial exploitation or the illegal hunting of animals and trading or selling their parts. And most of all pollution, causing the environment to change and the animals will not be able to adopt to the new environment causing their death.

The irrevesible loss of biodiversity will greatly affect on the remaining species, including humans for their survival. Us humans depend on other species for food,clean air and water,and fertile soil for our crops.We benefit greatly from the many medidines and other products biodiversity provide us.

There are also many ways to prevent more species to be endangered. Many group of conservationists help to keep animal and plant habitats safe and being turned into sanctuaries.There are also laws on animal protection.If we look at it there are really many ways to stop species to be endangered,we should just be responsible and be more concerned to the biodiversity.

Endangered Species in Kingdom Animalia

Endangered species are group of organisms that are in danger of exinction, either because they depleted in number or threatened by changes in their environment. Endangered species are classified into two types: (a) critically endangered species which faces an extremely high potential of extinction in the future; (b) endangered species which has high potential of extinction in the near future. Critically endangered species has higher risk of becoming extinct as stated by the World Conversation UNION than the endangered species.

In the Kingdom Animalia, species such as Cheetah, Blue Whale, Tiger, Snow Leopard and African Wild Dog are considered to be endangered. Scientists believed that these species become extinct for two main reasons: (a) human hunting; (b) changes in climate. Overhunting of humans caused animals to be exinct. It greatly decrease the number of animals especially those in the wild.

To date, there are many organizations that handle or support the preservation of these animals from becoming extinct by imposing acts and laws that prohibit overhunting. These laws protect animals by rehabilitation and providing means for them to reproduce. Organizations and concerned people prevents these endangered species from becoming extinct so that the next generation will still see the beauty of what our Creator has given us.

The Extinct Animals

THIS WHAT ANIMALS SAY WHEN THEY DIE(LOOK UP)

I think that extinct animals like this a Tasmanian Tiger and the other extinct animals are more cooler and maybe they are really cool to coolest this extinct animals are cooler than the animals that lived here on earth today and I think that eventhough the animals on Earth is not cool as the extinct animals we must not let that maybe one day we can wake up with all animals gone forever and see them in pictures.I think we must love and protect them from the danger that is given by those who abuse them.GO ANIMALS!!!

SAVE THEM!!

SAVE THE NEXT GENERATION!!


Whenever I hear the word wild life, the first thing that comes out of my mind would be the life of the animals, their situation in our world today. How was the animals today? their situation is worse now at a days. Why? It is simply because there are still illegal hunters that kill them and make some furnitures out of them, get their skins and furs and make come clothes out of it and get their flesh and send it to the town and sell it to have some money. Haven't they realized that we already have fishes, cows and pigs to eat. Aren't they satisfied about those animals that we can eat? Right now, people are eating different kinds of animals. They eat rats, frogs, dogs, cats, bats, snakes and etc.. Where is the mercy? Animals also have feelings and they also have the right to live and enjoy their lives like us humans. All living things that GOD created here on earth has the right to live. We humans do not own the earth, we should think that there are other living things like animals and plants that also lives here on earth. Do not be selfish! Treat them right and take care of them!

GOD gave us these things to use it but we should not forget to take good care of them and we do not own these stuffs. We are not the owner of the earth so do not abuse the right for these things, animals and plants.

SAVE our environment from these stuffs. Many people today are destroying our environment. If we really love our MOTHER EARTH, we should be united and be cooperative. Don't just seat their and relax! Instead be aware of the things that is happening in our environment today! Get busy in saving our mother earth.

Save our environment and let the next generation see the beauty of life. Save the animals that are now endagered.

The only problem to us humans is that even though we now that the animal is already endagered. We just still don't mind them. Whenever other people sa a news about the endagered species, they just don't care because maybe for them that animal is not useful to our environment.

Illegal loggers are still in place. They are destroying the environment and the homes of the birds and other animals that also lives on trees. Trees are very useful to us too. If there would be no trees, there is a possibiltity that we might lack of oxygen and shed for the rays of the sun that is very dangerous to us. Just realize that all these stuffs that we do to animals and our environment there is a certain karma for us.

If we loose these animals, just think of the possibilities that might happen to us. Without them, we cannot live life to gthe fullest and we will suffer all the consequences that will come back to us! Do you want it to happen??? So what are you doing??? Don't just seat there and wait for someone to do the first move. Instead why don't you do the first move and be a model for other people? Do the first move and call others and make them realize that the wild life needs us! Be the first one to move! There is nothing to be ashamed of.....


.....OPEN YOUR EYES....

REALIZE WHAT IS HAPPENING

TO OUR WILD LIFE AND MOTHER EARTH!!

DO THE RIGHT THING!! SAVE THE WILD LIFE!!
DO NOT BE AFRAID TO MOVE!!

LOVE EVERYTHING THAT GOD GAVE US!!
TREAT THEM RIGHT!!
TAKE GOOD CARE OF THEM!!

DO THE FIRST MOVE!!!

AND LET THE NEXT GENERATION
SEE THE BEAUTY OF LIFE!!!

The Californian Condor

We share this planet with many species. It is our responsibility to protect them, both for their sakes and our own.

Hello!this is my reaction about the extinction of the Californian Condor.The cause why this Condor extinct is because of the last ice age that affects the reduction of the popoulation of this spicies.

Did you know that this condors have a relationship with the humans?

Yes they are california condor has been popular subject in mythology and the were an important symbol of the Native Americans.

The californian condor conervation project was also the most expensive species conservation in the United States history.So we should help to conserve this animals not only the endagered but all the animals so they will not be gone.
