A snow leopard roars in the high mountains of

Asia. A black rhinoceros gallops across the

plains of Africa. A grizzly bear hunts for fish in a

North American river. A mother blue whale and

her calf glide through the deep waters of the

ocean.

All of these animals share the Earth with us.

They fascinate us with their beauty, their grace,

and their speed. We love observing their

behavior, and learning more about their habits.

ut !ust loving them is not enough. All of these

animals are endangered. "any of them have

died and without special care, they may

someday disappear from the Earth.

Why is it important to care for animals like

these# $ne reason is to protect the balance oflife on Earth. Another reason is the beauty of

the animals themselves. Each species of

animals is special. $nce it is gone, it is gone

forever.

Africa was once filled with an abundance of wild

animals. ut that is changing fast. $ne of these

animals, the black rhinoceros, lives on the

plains of Africa. %t has very poor eyesight and a

very bad temper& Even though the black rhino is

powerful, and can be dangerous, its strength

can't always help it to escape hunters. (ome

people think that the rhino's horn has magical

powers, and many hunters kill rhinos for their

valuable

horns. This has caused the black rhino to be

placed on the endangered species list.

The elephant seems to represent all that is

strong and wild in Africa. %t once had no natural

enemies, but is now endangered)killed for its

ivory tusks. The fastest land animal, the

cheetah, also lives in Africa. %t, too, is becoming

e*tinct as people take over more and more of

the land that is the cheetah's natural habitat.

%magine Africa without the powerful rhino, the

gentle, intelligent elephant, or the lightning +uick

cheetah. $nce they are gone, they are gone

forever.

Wherever people are careless about the land,there are endangered species.

rizzly bears like to wander great distances.

Each bear needs up to -,// s+uare miles of

territory to call its homeland. Today, because

forests have been cleared to make room for

people, the grizzly's habitat is shrinking and the

grizzly is disappearing. %t !oins other endangered

North American animals, such as the red wolf

and the American crocodile.

%n (outh America, destruction of the rain forest

threatens many animals. 0nusual mammals,

such as the howler monkey and the three1toed

sloth, are endangered. eautiful birds like the

great green macaw and the golden parakeet are

also becoming e*tinct. They're losing their

homes in the rain forest, and thousands die

when they are caught and shipped off to be sold

as e*otic pets.

The giant panda of Asia is a fascinating and

uni+ue animal. 2et there are only about -,///

still living in the wild. The giant panda's diet

consists mainly

of the bamboo plant, so when the bamboo

forests die, so does the panda. 3hina is now

making an effort to protect these specialcreatures from becoming e*tinct.

Asia's big cats are also in trouble. The e*otic

snow leopard lives high in the mountains. Even

there it faces, loss of natural habitat, and

hunters, who kill it for its fur. The tiger, the

largest of all the big cats, is hunted merely for

sport.

$cean1dwelling animals are in danger of

e*tinction as well. The blue whale is the largest

animal in the world. %t weighs up to 45/,///

pounds. Whale hunting and pollution are this

species' greatest enemies.

0nfortunately, it is people who cause many of

the problems that animals face. We alter and

pollute their habitats. We hunt them for skins,

tusks, furs, and horns. We destroy animals that

get in the way of farming or building. And we

remove them from their natural habitats and

take them home as pets.

What can you do to help endangered animals#

6earn as much as you can about them. The

more you know, the more you can help. "ake

an effort to support zoos and wildlife groups.

"any zoos breed endangered animals, helpingto ensure that they will continue to live on.

3ontribute to groups, such as the National

Wildlife 7ederation and the (ierra 3lub, that

work hard to protect animals. 2ou can also be a

smart shopper and never buy a pet that has

been raised in the wilderness.

The world is made up of many living things, and

each thing is dependent on the others to

survive. %f we allow even one species on Earth

to become

e*tinct, it has an impact on other living things

and changes our world. When we mention any

endangered wild animals, let's hope that we

never again have to say, 8one forever.9
