Endangered Species

In my last blog, I talked about the different charities that help different animals survive. Each charity is amazing because they have the same goal but help different species. In this blog, I'm going to talk about Extinct animals. These animals that I'm going to talk about animals, are animals that you would not assume are endangered.

The first animals is the Zebra the zebra was called a threatened animal in 1979. The zebra is a threatened animal for several reason habitat fragmentation and agricultural livestock organization. There is also another reason why the amount of Zebra has decreased over the years, it's because of the zoo. In my opinion the zoo doesn't take animals to save them, they take them to make money by taking animals such as zebras out of their habitat, that lowers their pollution and make their species endangered.

The second animals is the Alligator, the alligator mostly habitat in Florida and other hot places. The alligator was listed as a lower risked animals. They were at high risk but, after the law was changed and people were starting to get in trouble for hunting alligator for their meat and skin. In my opinion, by changing the law and helping the alligator,it really helped them to lower their risk of endangerment.

My third animals isn't even an animal it's a species,it coral. People don't think of coral as endangered but it is a threatened species that hold our whole ecosystems together. The coral reef has lost 80 to 90 percent of their population. The reason for why the coral reef population is decreasing it's because once the coral reef is touch it dies. In my opinion to save the coral reef is to not bring a scuba diver near any places containing coral reefs.

Their is so many endangered species all over the world that can be saved by one step
