10 Animals may become extinct within the next 10 years



Extinction is a natural process. As the evolution progresses. Several animal species extinct. And new changes have occurred continuously (called background extinction).


It also caused the extinction of life in a big way (mass extinction) as a result of events that occur suddenly, like a meteorite crashed into Earth, or changes in the geological history of sea level up to 5 times ever.

 
  

        According to the World Conservation Union better known in their name. International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources. This is a collaboration of 83 countries, 800 organizations and 10,000 scientists and experts in order to conserve the diversity of the world.

        Currently, there are animals that live in "The great state of extinction (critically endangered species)" to a global agreement in 3071 CITES is an extremely endangered species. Animals with a high risk of extinction in its natural state. Here are a few examples of endangered animals.

10. Leatherback Turtle
Leatherback Turtles are the largest turtles in the world. It is up to 8 meters long and weighed 2,000 pounds more than ever. It can dive to a depth of 1,200 meters is to hunt jellyfish

        Carambola turtles can be found in the Atlantic and Pacific and India may be found north of the city. British Columbia and in southern Argentina. They often have to migrate to the Atlantic or Pacific, to eat and lay eggs. Its population has decreased considerably over the past twenty years. As a result of the illegal theft of eggs and meat for food. The destruction of the source. Spawn the development of (business) at the beach. Changing the gender of the children of light coming from the hotel or the other. The fishing nets by accident. And many other factors.

        In 1980 the estimated population of females to lay eggs all over the world is at 115,000, but in the fall. 26000-43000 only.


9. Pied Tamarin or Saguinus bicolor
Also known as "bare-faced tamarin" due to its hairless face and ears. Tamarin monkeys, colorful, living in a small area. Around the city of Manaus north-west of Brazil. The growth of the city.

         Now, it remains just a few thousand only. Of the four black rhino subspecies of the species in West Africa's most threatened and likely to become extinct in nature.

         Illegal fishing and loss of habitat that are threatening the continued survival of these rhinos.





7. Chinese Alligator or Alligator sinensis
We will find a small Alligator with more than 2 meters long when fully grown weigh over 40 kg can be difficult. I live in the wetlands of the Yangtze River. The river with the river dolphin species in China (Chinese river dolphin) are already extinct.

         Lives. Al spent most of this type of light filter into the burrow.

         Although we are able to breed this species and it's true, Al.

         They are expected to remain in the wild is only 150-200, which makes it an endangered crocodile in the world
.



6.Seychelles Sheath-Tailed Bat

It is thought that the bat species left on Earth but only 50-100 of them found only in the island of Silhouette, Mahu, Praslin and La Digue islands Sea Shell only. (Located in the Indian Ocean northeast of Madagascar).

         Researchers believe that they live in caves, two of the island, Silhouette.

         Sea Shell Islands treaties protect the natural population are examining closely.




5. Dama Gazelle
Antelopes of this kind have a very high extinction. Ten years ago. In the wild population to 80% is lost as a result of illegal hunting and habitat destruction are the main

         Now the population is less than 100 scattered throughout the North African country of Chad in Niger and Mali.

         Their current situation is still worrisome because of the alien hunters get to hunt them continuously.




4. Bactrian camel
This type of camel farming ancestors lived in Gaychungobi City were built in the desert in northwest China's business and the south-west of Mongolia.

         Two camels, two by the name of a hunch, a hunch it. Unlike camels, Arab (Arabian camel) that has the same hunch. Although this species can survive in warm Reap nuclear area of China was a time 45 years ago.

         But it could withstand such pressures. At present it is not (such as mining, hunting for the wolf to catch it. Industrial development. And breeding and rearing camels, etc.).

         From John Harrison (John Hare), Chairman of the Fund to protect the wild camels in the United Kingdom found that only about 650 species of camel in China and 350 in Mongolia

         some experts predict that the population will decrease to 84% in 2033.


 
3. Northern Hairy-Nosed Wombat
Wombats in an animal with pocket areas in Australia. Fat, round shape, and have strong claws for digging underground burrows.

         Wombats in strains of nose hairs in the north are the wombats at the largest with a length of up to 1 meter and weigh up to 40 kg, it also has the hair soft and has a gait that. lumber (I can run faster than 40 km / h, ever.)

Cats Iberian Lynx nice.....

          The tiger is an animal that lives in the forests of the first extinct.
After living for more than 2,000 years.




 
 
Now we come to what some experts believe it is. "The wave of extinction of the 6 (sixth wave of extinction)", which means a decrease in the life of one of the men. Experts predict that the rate of extinction of species today is between 100-1000 times the rate of extinction or background extinction rate (some experts say it is 10,000 times higher than ever).
