World Global extinction crisis is “as bad or worse than believed” The world's largest conservation-related organisation says that there have been dramatic declines in populations of many species, including reptiles and primates since 1996. The Red-shanked Douc Langur faces imminent extinction The World Conservation Union (IUCN), released its report 2000 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species , which it says is the most authoritative global assessment of species loss on 29 Sepember, and which is full of “alarming facts.” The organisation, which brings together government agencies, scientists and NGOs from 181 countries, says that since its last assessment in 1996, critically endangered primates increased from 13 to 19, and the number of threatened albatross species has increased from three to 16 due to long-line fisheries. Freshwater turtles, heavily exploited for food and medicinal use in Asia, went from 10 to 24 critically endangered species in just four years. A total of 11,046 species of plants and animals are listed as threatened, facing a high risk of extinction in the near future, in almost all cases as a result of human activities. This includes 24% of mammal species and 12% of bird species. The total number of threatened animal species has increased from 5,205 to 5,435.

Home Search Species Family ... Flowers A ccording to figures published by the World Conservation Union (IUCN), more than 110 species of primates-nearly half of the world's total-are currently under threat of extinction. This makes the primates among the most vulnerable animals on earth. At one time the black and white colobus monkey , was captured and killed for its fur, which was a very desirable commodity among rich Europeans. Today, most people would oppose killing monkeys for fur, but other threats have appeared which are far more serious. Deforestation is probably the biggest threat, the most severe example being Madagascar, the home of the lemur. It is also taking place at a rapid rate in Southeast Asia, threatening the gibbon and the orangutan . In Brazil, the destruction of the Atlantic Rainforest has made the golden lion tamarin one of the most endangered species in the world. Primates are also threatened by collection for the pet trade and by hunting. Illegal hunting is the chief threat facing the mountain

Menu Prosimians New World Monkeys Old World Monkeys ... Return to EVOLUTION "I Didn't Come From Any Monkey!" True enough. But you sure have a lot of relatives who did! Back in the good old days, about 30 million years ago, when we last shared a common ancestor with the Old World monkeys, there was no such thing as Monkeys, Apes or Humans as we know them today. It took all of us all those years to develop into the modern families and species that now populate much of this planet. Before then we were related to this little thumb-sized guy who lived about 45 million years ago. This fossil is a link between the earlier Prosimians and the more modern forms like us. See News Story How many Primate species are there today? That's difficult to say. Until recently scientists thought there might be 200-230 "good species." In 1999

World Conservation Union director general Maritta von Bieberstein Kock-Weser has had time to study the numbers, and the shock hasn't worn off. The findings come from a World Conservation Union (IUCN) "These findings should be taken very seriously by the global community," said Bieberstein Kock-Weser. In the wake of the report, the IUCN is joining forces with various conservation groups, governments and local communities to bring awareness of the plight of planetary biodiversity. Since the IUCN's last assessment in 1996, the 2000 Red List of Threatened Species reveals that critically endangered primates increased from 13 to 19 and threatened albatross species jumped from three to 16 due to long-line fisheries. The report has disquieting indicators at every turn. Endangered freshwater turtle species, heavily exploited for food and medicinal use in Asia, increased from 10 to 24.

AUDREY AND TONY'S The issue about Alaska, personally I think we should leave it alone. I feel that companies may promise to follow certain guidelines to not damage the area but once in there will do damage and instead of fixing it they will pay finds and before you know it there will not remain any of the natural beauty that many places today can not claim any more because of they way we live today. Alaska is one of the rare untouched areas and needs to remain that way. Welcome to our page. We are making this page to voice our opinion on how we feel about animals and our world. We realize that this is the only place that we, as a people, have to call home, and we don't understand how so many can choose to destroy everything and not care. At the rate we are going soon there won't be hardly anything .. animals, plants, water, or air. And what we do have will be polluted and contaminated. How is anyone suppose to live in the world that we are now in the process of making.Before long people will be putting themselves on the endangered list..which when you think about it there is certain types of people that have been destroyed by other people look at the Native American Indian, how many tribes have been made extinct. Everyone can do something..even if you only start at home and take care of what you have. Be kind to your pets and when having an exotic pet, read up about it and learn how to take care of it the way it needs to be care for. And if you can't take care of it give it to someone that can, it's O.K. to change your mind.And never purchase endangered species or parts of them, many tourist go to small islands and buy shells of sea turtles, remember, all sea turtles are endangered. If they can't sell them then they won't kill them.
