endangered species.
Mention facts that contribute to
the extinction of those species.

Giant Panda
Giant pandas are one of the most
beloved animals around the world,
but they may soon disappear. Less than
2,000 pandas remain in the wild. They
are in real danger of extinction.
Did humans care about pandas?
Unfortunately, not all of them; forest destruction due to human
intervention, has strongly affected them. Bamboo, their main
food source, was used for industrial purposes. Pandas didn’t eat
well and started to die. Besides, pandas don’t reproduce very
often, so it has been difficult to recover their population.

There are plenty of ways you can help protect these animals. Can you
think of one?

Industrial, agricultural, and energy pollutants are affecting wildlife in our

planet. Did you knew that one million marine animals die each year due

to plastic debris in the ocean?

The hawksbill turtle, for example, is now critically endangered.

According to recent data, we didn’t did anything to avoid 37 animal

extinctions and we are now facing the consequences. Pollution

represents one of the biggest threats for endangered species.

We didn’t thought about the consequences of polluting the oceans, but

now it is time to take action!
