What+to+protect,+and+why?

There are many endangered species in the world, some more than others. Go to the following web site @https://www.worldwildlife.org/species/directory?direction=desc&sort=extinction_status and research an animal/species of your choice. Find out about it and why it is important for society.

Some questions to consider:
 * 1) How endangered is this animal/species? Is it critically endangered?
 * 2) Why is it endangered? Poaching? Human encroachment? Poisoning? Low reproductive rate?
 * 3) Are there other species that depend on this animal/how many other species would be affected with the loss of this animal/species?
 * 4) Why are you choosing to save this particular animal/species? And how? What do you plan to do about it?
 * 5) Any other questions you think are important.

This will take more than one class to complete. Make sure you have a thorough understanding of what you are trying to save & why as you will present your findings to the rest of the class. As a class, we will decide which animal/species we are going to save first.
