Why are all these animals endangered?
00:00:04
Now in Endangered Animals.
00:00:06
About one-third of all animals and plants are endangered to become extinct.
00:00:09
No good news, unfortunately.
00:00:17
How do they actually become endangered?
00:00:19
And what animal species are affected?
00:00:21
The Amur leopard is one of the most beautiful big cats,
00:00:24
but also one of the world's rarest.
00:00:28
Its habitat is being increasingly destroyed due to deforestation and slash and burn.
00:00:30
This is why the Amur leopard is an endangered species.
00:00:36
A rhino's horn is a desired trophy for hunters and a valuable booty for poachers.
00:00:39
They do not care that these animals are nearly extinct by now and that hunting rhinos is forbidden.
00:00:45
This beautiful sea turtle is a protected species.
00:00:51
Nevertheless, it's being hunted because of its shell and meat.
00:00:54
The pollution of the ocean is a threat to the hawksbill turtle too,
00:00:58
particularly the plastic waste floating throughout the ocean.
00:01:02
The turtles cannot distinguish this from jellyfish.
00:01:06
Poachers are the biggest threat for mountain gorillas.
00:01:09
Due to deforestation and slash and burn,
00:01:12
it's getting increasingly difficult for the apes to stay in their habitats and to find enough food.
00:01:14
The scales of the pangolin are believed to be a medical cure.
00:01:21
This belief is fatal for many of these animals.
00:01:25
Yet, the scales actually consist of the same material as our fingernails.
00:01:28
The polar bear lives in the Arctic region and mainly feeds on seals.
00:01:33
Due to global warming, the Arctic ice is increasingly melting.
00:01:38
This means that the polar bear has to move further north again and again in order to
00:01:42
survive.
00:01:46
The red panda feeds on bamboo.
00:01:48
Due to deforestation, it finds less and less food and protection.
00:01:50
The red panda is also being hunted because of its beautiful coat.
00:01:55
The giant panda also feeds on bamboo.
00:01:59
The clearance of forests is not the only threat to them though.
00:02:02
The problem is that bamboo only blossoms about once every 100 years and then dies off because
00:02:05
of a lack of nutrients.
00:02:12
Therefore it's very difficult to reforest bamboo.
00:02:14
Why do animals become endangered?
00:02:18
A lot of animals lose their habitat due to global warming, deforestation, increasing pollution, hunting, and poaching.
00:02:20
Wow, all these animals are living too far away to help them.
00:02:28
You don't have to travel to the rainforests or rob your piggy bank?
00:02:32
Here are six tips.
00:02:36
They also help to protect a great number of endangered animals in your region.
00:02:37
Save energy. Switch off electric devices if you don't need them.
00:02:41
The exploitation of coal and oil resources harms our environment and the animals.
00:02:46
Avoid plastic. Use your cloth bag if you go shopping. Plastic bags are often dumped in nature, where the animals mistake them for food.
00:02:50
Save water. Take a shower instead of a bath. And don't let the water run while brushing your teeth.
00:02:59
Save the environment. Use your bicycle and the bus. Less exhaust gases are also good for our own respiratory systems.
00:03:06
systems. Less fish and meat. Many seas have been subject to overfishing so that the natural
00:03:14
environment has lost its balance. In addition, large forests are being chopped down only
00:03:20
to create large pastures for cattle. Food from your region. Regional products don't
00:03:26
have to be transported for thousands of miles by plane, trucks and so on. This helps to
00:03:32
save nature.
