Hypothesis
If we don’t stop to kill animals
they will extinct forever.
Siberian tiger
Many conservation programs have been
established to save the critically
endangered Siberian tiger, whose numbers
have dwindled to mere hundreds in the
wild. There were once eight tiger
subspecies, but three became extinct
during the 20th century. Over the last
hundred years, hunting and forest
destruction have reduced overall tiger
populations from hundreds of thousands to
perhaps 3,000 to 5,000.
The Amur leopard
Far Eastern or Amur leopard is
subspecies of leopard cats. The body
length is 107-136 cm. In summer, their
fur is short, in winter it grows up to 7
cm long. Currently, the Amur leopard is
on the brink of total extinction. In
nature, they are no more than 40
individuals.
Florida Panther
Florida Panther is the most rare,
endangered subspecies of the Puma. Its
number in the nature estimated at only 25
to 50 individuals.
It lives in the forests and swamps of
South Florida (USA), mainly in the area
of the reserve Big Cypress National
Preserve was previously extended from
the Eastern part of Texas to the SouthEastern States.
The cause of its extinction was,
mainly, wetland drainage, sport
hunting.
American bison
There are two extant and four extinct
species recognized. Of the four extinct
species, three were North American. The
fourth the Bison priscus ranged across
steppe environments from Western
Europe, through Central Asia, and onto
North America.
There are two surviving species; the
American bison, also known as the
American buffalo, found only in North
America, is the most numerous.
Conclusion
Scientists say that now 3 species of animals,
birds or fish die out every hour. That means that
in 100 years from 25 % to 50% of all living
creatures on our planet will disappear.
There are more than 1,000 animal species
endangered worldwide.
Every animal in the world is important to its
ecosystem. if we lose an animal the ecosystem
is thrown off and can cause large problems for
the other animals in the area.
How Can We Save Animals
in Danger of Extinction?

Education (From a young age, understanding the threat of animal
extinction can help people to consider how their actions and
behaviors affect endangered species).
Habitat Protection (Do as much as possible to lessen the impact
on their habitats. Species can be wiped out by having their homes
demolished for human use).
Climate Change/Conservation (Climate change can affect animal
populations. For example, the rising in temperatures can cause
glaciers to melt and displace species, such as polar bears and
arctic foxes).
Donations (Contribute funds to organizations dedicated to
protecting them. The World Wildlife Fund and Save Animals from
Extinction Worldwide, work to promote endangered and extinct
animal awareness, protest the development of businesses or
individuals that seek to damage their habitats and fund wildlife
sanctuaries where endangered animals can be preserved).
