How to help endagerd animals

10 ways to help endangered animals you can donate money to the wild life foundation..
1. Organizations like Greenpeace and World Wildlife Fund have dedicated themselves to preserve the earth and its ecology. Many volunteers join organizations like these and work for the environment. You can find some international/local organizations like these and join them.

2. Boycott fur coats and medicines made from rare animals. Boycott ornaments made from ivory and staff like this. Baby seals are murdered for their skin, as it is used to make expensive coats- don’t bye them.

3. Raise your voice against this injustice. Peaceful protest, human chain, petition and rally are some ways to do it. You can also write a heart felt and logical letter to the government stating your ideas about this issue and how it can be solved.

4. Try to raise awareness amongst your local people. Apart from face to face interaction, the best way to do so is blogging. Blog about endangered animals and what we can do to help them. If you have posts like this, then please write about it in the comment section.

5. Recycle and reuse. It will reduce the need to have more raw materials to produce something. As a result a lot of trees will be spared and wild animals’ habitat will be undisturbed.

6. Governments should come forward to create more safe zones and national parks for wild animals where they will be able to move freely without worrying about hunters and poachers. Governments should apply strict laws to stop poaching.

7. You can make a little room for your wild neighbors. Like, you can build a bird house and feed local birds.

8.Plant a tree!

9. Stop hunting for pleasure.

10. Donate money or trees to different non-profit organizations which work to protect the wildlife. You can donate money to Greenpeace, World Wildlife Fund etc. You can gift trees from Arbor Day Foundation.

Grey wolves

Conservation Groups fear the move by Congress could set a dangerous precedent

Politicians in the US Congress have for the first time removed a previously threatened animal from the nation’s endangered species list. The move is the culmination of a long dispute that has pitted the wolves’ defenders against hunters who said the animals were devastating wild game they wanted for themselves.

At the stroke of a pen, Obama  stepped into a bloody fight between two American populations with clout in Washington and a loud voice in the news media – wolves and elk.
Tucked into a budget bill Mr Obama signed on Friday is a provision to remove grey wolves in a wide swath of the American West from the US endangered species list.
The move, sponsored by a bipartisan group of senators from rural western states and one of several policy measures grafted on to the budget, will eventually allow affected states to manage the size of wolf packs and, hunters say, help restore elk herds they say have been ravaged by hungry wolves.
But wildlife conservation groups fear it could set a precedent for political interference in a process that has previously been left to biologists.

Jaguars

On March 23, the Center for Biological Diversity's lawyers and scientists will be in a federal court seeking to force the federal government to prepare a recovery plan for the endangered jaguar and protect its habitat.Jaguars are found on the American continents; they live in Texas, in the Cerro Colorado Mountains in Arizona, the southern part of California, and New Mexico, in the United States, and are found in rain forests in Central and South America. The largest known population exists in the Amazon rain forests. Black jaguars live in South America. Jaguars are also found in Africa and Asia. Until the 1900s, they also roamed the Yukon, southern United States to Uruguay, and Iceland. Humans are the main threat to the jaguar. A jaguar seldom, if ever, attacks humans unless it is cornered. Humans hunt the jaguar for sport, for its spotted hide, and to protect their domestic stock. The jaguar is endangered because it is hunted for its fur, and farmers kill the jaguar because it killed their cattle. Jaguars are reputed to be so destructive of cattle and horses that the larger Mexican ranches retain a 'tiger hunter' to kill them or at least drive them away. Poaching jaguars by hunting is still a problem, as there is a great demand for their coats.During the sixties and seventies, around 18,000 jaguars were killed every year for their beautiful coat. The number of jaguars has declined over the last 100 years mainly because humans have slashed and burned many of their homelands in Central and South America. New cities are being built, and the forests and grasslands are being cleared. The destruction of the jaguar's habitat from logging and cattle ranching as well as having to compete with humans for food has brought a large decease in its population. One of the problems for the jaguars is when the grasses that help hide them are dying because of smog problems. More jaguars are killed as the demand for their fur increases. In hunting, the jaguar is usually chased by dogs until it runs up a tree or until it is cornered on the ground, then it is shot.The Bororo Indians of Mato Grosso, Brazil hunt them with spears. When a jaguar is cornered on the ground, the hunter gets it to rush him, and then catches it on his spear as it leaps at him.

elephants!!

  Africa has experienced a huge decline in the number of elephants in the last 3-4 decades. In 1979 and 1989 half of Africa's elephants were killed for ivory. humans are limiting the elephants range of movement and food sources.they have no choice but to eat some of the farmer's crops in order to survive. most hunters in the wild hunt down elephants mostly for their tusks to create objects and leave the rest of the body where it was found.

An elephants’ tusks are a blessing and curse. Blessing because they give a elephants a true majesty that rise them above other animals as well and being of use for various tasks. A curse because man’s avarice for ivory has led to the senseless slaughter of hundred of thousands of the magnificent animals.
One of the key differences between African and Asian elephants is the tusks. All African elephants, male and female have tusk whereas only some Asian males have tusks. About 50% of Asian females have short tusks known as tushes. Unlike proper tusks tushes have no pulp inside.
