Why Endangered Species

Habitat Loss

As forests are cleared, oceans polluted, and land developed, wildlife loses the space it needs to survive. Habitat loss is the leading cause of species extinction worldwide.

Climate Change

Rising temperatures and changing weather patterns disrupt food sources, migration routes, and breeding cycles—pushing many species beyond their ability to adapt.

Poaching & Illegal Trade

Illegal hunting and wildlife trafficking continue to devastate animal populations, driving some species to the brink of extinction faster than they can recover.

Why It Matters

Every species plays a role in maintaining healthy ecosystems. When one disappears, the balance of nature is disrupted—impacting biodiversity, the environment, and future generations.
