Everyone loves animals. But unfortunately, there are many species that disappear before our eyes. Due to various factors such as pollution, habitats decreases, climate change, and poaching, some animals have become completely extinguished in the wild.

Fortunately, there are thousands of people and organizations dedicated to saving these vulnerable creatures. To show you exactly what animals are at risk, we have rounded a list of all endangered species in the world, as well as what is done to bring them back on the edge of the chasm.

Population: Considered completely extinguished in nature

Although there were about 4,000 southern China tigers in the world in the 1950s, they were almost chased until the following years because they were considered "harmful", according to theWORLD FUND FOR NATURE (WWF OF). Then, in the 1970s, the Chinese government prohibited killing creatures and they were considered a "conservation priority" in 1995. However, there was only 30 to 80 from the striped animals found a year more late.

At present, the South China Tiger is in danger of critical disappearance, but it is actually considered "functionally extinct" because of the fact that it has not been spotted in nature since more than 25 years. According toA kind planetThere are about 100 live animals in captivity in China and South Africa.

Population: 30

You have probably never heard of the porpoise (which means "little cow" in Spanish), which can be because we have not discovered these same porpoises until 1958. Not to mention, there are only about 30 of They left, which makes them "most rare marine mammals in the world", according to theWwf. Another creature seriously threatened with extinction, the vaquita face disastrous circumstances although living in protected areas in the California Gulf of Mexico. pitfalls of illegal fishing is drowning submarine animals and decimated their number at the point ofextinction.

Population: 58 to 68

There are five species of rhinoceros; Javanese rhinoceros is the one with the smallest population. Though there iswould have Only 30 individual return Javan in 1967 Rhinos, there is currently as much as 68. Although all Javan rhinos live safely in Ujung Kulon National Park in Java, Indonesia, there are still problems with livestock. because there are some animals on the left, which reduces their genetic diversity.

Population: 80

With a population that is almost as small as the Java rhinoceros, there is only about 80 people left Rhinoceros de Sumatra. Considering that two women gave birth to captive babies over the last 15 years, there is a concern that these creatures will not be able to come back to the critical dangerous gulf. Because these animals face both habitat loss and poaching on low reproduction, organizations like theWWF Actively try to create protected areas for them to save the animals as we still can.

Population: About 84

The life of leopard of love in the Russian Far East, and their numbers are considered so low for two main reasons. First of all, like logging cuts the forests, small animals that would normally be meal for leopards have nowhere to live, leaving predators with nothing to eat. On top of that, gorgeous leopards are also victims of poaching for their coats, who can sell to $ 500 to $ 1,000.

Fortunately, as well as other conservation efforts, a sanctuary was created for the leopard of love. "With the establishment of Leopard National Park Earth, together with other conservation efforts, we can now start focusing on how to start bringing them back," saidDr. Sybille Klenzendorf, Director General of Species Conservation for theWwf.

Population: 200 to 300

Scientists believe that there is only about 200 to 300Cross River Gorillasliving in the wild. However, it is difficult to nail an exact number due to the fact that they are shy creatures that prefer not being spotted by curious (and potentially dangerous) humans. Another species that faces reproductive problems around genetic diversity, the Cross River gorilla has been critically in danger.

Population: 250-340

In 2004,DNA testsProven that the Malayen Tiger, the Malay Peninsula and the southern part of Thailand, was a separate subspecies and not an Indochinese tiger branch, as before (more on these guys soon). Unfortunately, there are only a few hundred of these creatures relatively newly discovered. This is because they face the same catastrophic concerns as the other tigers (ie poaching and habitat loss), which puts them in the category of critical crisis in danger.

Population: 300 to 350

Nowadays, the North Atlantic whales are mainly on the Atlantic coast of North America, partly because they have already disappeared in other areas of the ocean. Faced with the dangers of climate change of fishing ships and entanglement collisions with fishing gear, powerful animals are on the endangered list with only 300 to 350 still in open waters.

In order to protect creatures, shipping routes have been modified in the 2003 Fundy Bay in 2003, which, according to theWwf"Reduces the risk of straight whale ships in Canadian waters up to 80%." Let's hope that the same type of measures will be taken in other North American waters where whales are still victims of unfortunate (and seemingly avoidable) accidents.

Population: About 350

An estimate of 2010 found that there were only 350 Indochinese tigers still elongated around Thailand, Cambodia, China, the Lao People's Democratic Republic, Myanmar and Vietnam, which makes another endangered species. According toWwfIn 2010, 2010 was the year when they "sounded the indochinated tiger alarm because the population of these subspecies had fallen by more than 70% in just over a decade" again, due to The loss of poaching and habitat. Like other tigers on this list, organizations and governments are trying to work together to create safe harvested for these cherished creatures.

Population: About 370 in nature

Black-foot ferrets Increase the size of their population after being described once off. Always considered a threatened animal, successful conservation and recovery efforts have seen the figures of the criterion increase in recent decades in North America, where they are one of the most threatened mammals on the continent.

Population: Less than 400

Not only the Sumatran Rhino at a serious risk is Sumatran's tiger. There are fewer than 400 of these seriously threatened creatures living on the Indonesian Island of Sumatra, which exceeds 1000 estimated, it would have been believed in 1978.Dr. Barney Long, an Asian species expert, told theWwf, "With so much deforestation and poaching in Sumatra, wild tigers face a very difficult future, but we have the tools available to reverse their decline if the clearance of their forest can be stopped."

Population: Up to 540

Although there are slightly more amuennes tigers than the Sumatratan tigers, there are only 540 of the great beasts, which means they are considered as in danger. Almost disappearing completely in the 1940s, after years of hunting in the Russian Far East, in the north of China and the Korean Peninsula, there was only 40 amurennian tigers in the wild before Russia gave the Complete protection of animals.

Population: More than 1000

The subspecies of mountain gorilla were discovered in 1902. But because of the war, hunting, the destruction of habitat and illness, just a century later, they barely survive. In fact, "it was once thought that the species could be extinguished by the end of the twentieth century",WwfExplain. With drastic measures to save and protect animal habitats throughout the Congo Basin in Central Africa, there are now over 1000 strong mountain gorillas in the wild. Even celebrities such as talk show hostEllen Degeneres have taken steps to establishEllen fundsWho built a permanent home for the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund.

Population: 1000 to 1800

The porpoise Yangtze used to live alongside his cousin, the Baiji dolphin in the Yangtze River Asia. However, in 2006, the Baiji dolphin was considered functionally extinct, becoming the first species of dolphins driven to extinction by humans. Now is threatened with extinction critical porpoise Yangtze with only 1000 to 1.8000 swim in nature. And they are still facing serious problems, such as pollution, dangerous encounters with boats, and low food supply due to overfishing. Fortunately, efforts are in place which aim to replenish the food supply and the vacuum overfishing.

Population: 1200-1800

Found in Nepal, India and Bangladesh, the Ganges river dolphin is another water-based mammal which unfortunately made its way on the list of endangered animals. With only 1200 to 1800 species of dolphins in total, the creatures have disappeared in many areas where they used. In addition to the fight against pollution,Wwf explains that "Gangetic dolphin is the river still hunted for meat and oil, which are both used in medicine. The oil is also used to attract catfish in net fishing. »

Population: 1409

African wild dogs face a number of concerns that have decimated their population to a mere 1409, making them one species endangered. In addition to disease and loss of habitat, these animals also face large predators (like lions) in competition for food, while dodging humans too. Fortunately, in places like southern Tanzania and northern Mozambique, protected areas are established where African wild dogs can live in peace, which is why people can now be as high as 6,600, according theAfrican Wildlife Foundation.

Population: 1500

Pygmies Borneo elephants are creatures living in the forest, which means that, unfortunately, come into contact with forestry companies not only destroying the homes of animals, but also create dangerous situations because of illegal traps. With only about 1,500 of the endangered creatures left, the tracking data is used for zones and corridors, hopefully easy to elephant aid plan where they will remain unharmed.

Population: 1,816

The dolphin endangered Indus River faces a number of threats to its population, including pollution, habitat loss and poaching by locals who have to compete with the dolphins for the supply of fish in the region. However, aWwf study published in December 2017, there was a huge increase of 50 per cent of the population since 2001, "largely due to the success of community conservation efforts. »

Population: Less than 2000

The only species of its kind to his house north of the equator, the Galapagos penguins are another innocent victim of pollution and climate change, which is why there are fewer than 2 000 of waddlers wonderful in nature . They also suffered from seriously high mortality rate up to a staggering 77 percent, due to the devastating storms such as El Niño. That is whyGalapagos Conservation Trust trying to help the birds through fundingprojects that both monitor the size of the population and to evaluatepollution risk.

Population: 2400-2800

Join the Sumatran rhino and the Sumatran tiger, the Sumatran elephant has been endangered until 2012 when it was then consideredcritically endangeredBecause of the fact that half of the population of the creature has been lost in one generation. Like other animals living in Sumatra's forests, elephants have suffered because of destructive logging and deforestation. "Unless the deforestation on the island of Sumatra is interrupted, we could see the Sumatra elephant be limited to some isolated populations in our lives," said Long.

Population: More than 2,500

Bengal's tiger has the largest population of all tiger subspecies, however, there are still 2,500 of them, which means they enter the endangered category. Assisted by the establishment of animal reserves in the back India in the 1970s, the tigers figures have seen an increase. But they are always threatened by poaching hunters and the trophy, according toNational Geographic.

Population: 2500 to 4000

Although the Sri Lankan elephants are now protected by law that can see the hunters against the death penalty, the population of this species has fallen nearly 65% ​​since the turn of the nineteenth century, mainly because of the destruction of their Forest houses as well as conflicts with humans. Wwfestimates that there is 2,500 to 4000 still on the left.

Population: 5,000 to 5,400

"Between 1960 and 1995, black rhinoceros numbers dropped by 98% referencing, less than 2,500," according to theWwf. As they "made a huge return on the edge of the extinction" by doubling their population, they are still considered seriously endangered and are threatened by the loss of habitat as well as the illegal poaching and the trafficking of Black markets of striking horns of creatures.

Population: Estimated at 7,000

Although there are about 7,000 dolphins of endangered Hector swimming in the wild, there is a seriously threatened subspecies of these creatures called the Dolphins of Maui. Only only 55 Dolphins de Maui live in the waters around North Island of New Zealand, according to theWwf. Due to the fact that they live near the shore, the dolphins are caught up and killed by commercial fishing nets, which is why measures taken to limit or prohibit the use of nets in the natural habitat of dolphins.

Population: Less than 10,000

While 10,000 are considerably more than the number of other animals on this list, it is always an unfortunately weak number, which is why red pandas are in the threatened category. In addition to fatal traps facing other creatures that share their home in eastern East Himalayas and Southwestern China, red pandas are also hunted by poachers for their coveted coats.

Population: 10,000 to 25,000

The largest animal on the planet, blue whales are also a whale target that hunt peaceful giants. Despite efforts and laws to protect whales from commercial hunting that dates back to the mid-1960s, creatures are always threatened by climate and environmental changes.

Population: 10,000 to 50,000

Like a chimpanzee but slightly smaller, the bonobos share 98.7% of their DNA with humans; Yet, they are human actions that threaten endangered species. Poaching and deforestation have both contributed to the population of Bonobo, which are struggling to recover because of ongoing problems, including low reproductive rates.

"The bonobos are fascinating and unclipted creatures. They have the only great monkey company led by women, with a sophisticated social structure that encourages cooperation and peace," saidDr. Richard Carroll, Vice-President of theWwfs Africa program.

Population: 14,613

The Orangsumutans of Sumatran were once lived on the island of Sumatra and Java, but now exist in a much smaller area. The future of serious endangered creatures "is inextricably linked to the disappearing forests of the islands", "to explain Long. "If we want to save the Sumatra Oranguutan, we have to save their home from the forest."

Population: 20,000 to 25,000

Like the Rhinos are hunted for their horns, Indian elephants are killed for their defenses. This illegal practice, as well as human activity destroying the forest houses of elephants, has resulted in an endangered population. It is currently estimated at 20,000 to 25,000 Indian elephants in the wild, despite efforts to protect their land and reduce conflicts between animals and their human neighbors.

Population: Less than 50,000

Another massive creature is unfortunately on the list of animals in danger, the Asian elephant has a population of less than 50,000 nowadays. Facing serious threats from habitat loss and fatal poaching, these elephants also treat problems of genetic diversity because of the fact that poachers kill breeding men for their defenses.

Population: Between 50,000 and 90,000

Unfortunately, the oil, the meat and Blareen can be taken from flapcumbing make it a valuable catch for the hunters, which is only 50,000 to 90,000 inhabitants of swimmers threatened in our oceans on the planet. Creatures are always killed by Iceland's commercial walk companies, despite the efforts of organizations and other countries to convince the island nation to stop their operations.

Population: About 104,700

"The fate of one of the closest living parents of the man is our manufacture and yet we can help them recover," saidLong. While their habitats are destroyed by humans at a devastating rate, Orangs-Orangs-Outans also face farmers, who kill animals to protect crops, as well as criminals that capture critical creatures threatened for the trade in illegal pets.

Population: Unknown

"Years of civil disorders in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) took their toll on ... The Eastern Gorilla Lowland, explains theWwf. This resulted in its population by decreasing about 50%, which is why they are considered critical in danger. However, it is currently unknown how many people still live in nature.

Population: Unknown

We have only been known on the Saola (Sow-la Pronounced) since their discovery in 1992. Also called Asian unicorns thanks to their impressive horns and that in the mountains of the Annamese du Laos and Vietnam, the scientists haveapparently Only documented animals in the four times wild. Unfortunately, observations can not increase in time after their habitat continues to decline.

Population: Unknown

Like their parents of Gorilla and mountain mountain, the Lowland Western gorillas are threatened, although their population numbers are unknown. The disease and poaching are direct dangers for these animals, so an action is taken to protect the creatures of illness and illegal activities.

Population: Not verified

Turtles of hawk, whose population is monitored on theWwf Website, are severely threatened animals that are hunted for their beautiful (and therefore precious) shells. In addition to other common threats such as habitat loss and harmful pollution, these animals are also faced with problems because many of their eggs are often taken by humans.

Population: Not verified

Bluefins are the largest type of tuna, and they are often very sought after by fishing operations. While governments have put in place laws to protect tuna populations, overfishing and "pirate fishing" are always serious, putting bluefin on the list of endangered animals.

Population: Not verified

Green turtles also found themselves on the list of endangered animals due to the same disabling problems as other ocean animals face, including pollution, habitat narrowing and fatal fishing nets. And with humans continuing to reasse the green turtle nests for eggs, marine creatures also have trouble reviving their number by selection.

Population:Not verified

Although this fish has a silly-sounding name (if apt), there is nothing funny of the situation that the Wump WRESS is confronted. Commercial operations to catch creatures affect both the stability of the population as well as the reef systems where the fish are. That's why theWwf "Exhorts local governments in the coral triangle to stop the commercial and consumption of Humphed Wrase - one of the most expensive live reef fish in the world."

Population: Not verified

Found in the Ayeyarwady, the Mahakam and the Mekong rivers of South and Southeast Asia, the dolphins of Irrawaddy are another sad victim of fishing nets to capture other water creatures. With research and restoration efforts, theWwf Collected with Coca-Cola Company to work with premises to tackle the problems surrounding these animals in danger.

Population: Not verified

Another creature that may be confronted with a fatal situation due to fishing nets, sea lion populations are also affected by climate change. They can even resume dangerous diseases of other animals like dogs introduced into their zones. Research, education and secure paradons for breeding of sea lions have been essential steps to try to save these mammals in danger.

Population: Not verified

Despite the fact that the EI whales are among the fastest of their kinds, they can not exceed the dangers they face in nature. With a population that hurts climate change and pollution, theWwf Also indicates that "50 Sei shoulders are killed each year by Japanese whalers in the North Pacific as part of Japan's" scientific "whaling program."

Population: Not verified

The largest shark on the planet, on average about 40 feet and 11 tons, whale sharks could actually be wrong for whales because of their massive size. And although these creatures are protected in many parts of the world, there are still places where they are hunted for their meat, oil and fins. And for more inspiring facts about these creatures, see these 75 strange but wonderful facts that will leave you totally surprised .
