There has been an increase in the poaching and slaughtering of adult chimpanzees in Africa in recent years. All too often after witnessing the death of their mothers for bushmeat, infant chimpanzees are captured and sold illegally into the entertainment trade. Many die of shock, malnutrition, or disease before they reach their intended destinations. Those that survive are usually mistreated from the start. But there is hope. Redjellyfish Long Distance is making donations to the Jane Goodall Institute to feed the infant chimpanzees who have been confiscated from poachers, and placed in sanctuaries run by the Jane Goodall Institute.

International Primate Protection League SINCE 1973: WORKING TO PROTECT GIBBONS AND ALL LIVING PRIMATES Urgent Action Alert - Immediate Action Needed! Most Endangered Great Ape Threatened November 2002 Some of Sumatra's most critically endangered species, including the Sumatran orangutan, elephant, tiger, and rhinoceros are facing a serious and desperate new threat to their survival due to a government plan to build several major new roads that will drastically fragment a crucial part of their current range. Orangutan mother and baby Road will split ecosystem Viable alternatives to the plan remain, but the local government of the province of Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam (NAD) is likely to continue with its intention to construct these roads and further destroy and fragment large, and in some cases critical, parts of the habitat of these species. Furthermore, they will irreparably damage the livelihoods of the local human communities. The proposed roads will divide up what is known as the Leuser Ecosystem, a unique conservation area that is the only place in the world where the above species can still be found living side by side. Sumatran orangutan - great ape closest to extinction It is also the only area where the Sumatran orangutan still occurs in anything even approaching viable numbers. This species is well-recognized as the great ape that is likely to become extinct in the wild first, probably within the next 5 to 10 years, if not sooner.

Search this site Site search Who's Who at the Zoo - Animal Collection The Central Florida Zoological Park's most visible role is to provide its visitors with recreation and the opportunity to observe and learn about its unique and interesting animals. One of the Zoo's most critical functions is to provide a refuge for animal species that are threatened in the wild. One of the ways zoos are helping is by implementing Species Survival Plans (SSP in partnership with the American Zoo and Aquarium Association. SSPs are cooperative efforts by zoos to maintain healthy captive populations of endangered species. Through SSPs , we increase the possibility that these species can be released into the wild successfully. Endangered Species: A species of animal or plant that may become extinct if not protected and effectively managed. Threatened Species: A species of animal or plant that may become endangered if not protected or effectively managed.

BLACK RHINOCEROS Africa Unknown The name "rhino" conjures up the image of a prehistoric beast, a huge creature with skin of armor. This image is not surprising, since these intelligent and affectionate creatures have inhabited the Earth for 60 million years. An extinct species of rhino that lived in Mongolia, (Baluchitherium grangeri), was the largest land mammal of all time. This hornless rhinoceros stood 18 feet (five and one-half meters) at the shoulder, was 27 feet (eight meters) long, and probably weighed 25 tons (23 metric tons), four times as much as today's African bull elephant. This species probably died out because of climate change. The rhino may be the source of the belief in unicorns, legendary animals whose horn was said to be a panacea for all types of ailments. In 1298, the Venetian explorer Marco Polo described Sumatran rhinos as unicorns saying: There are wild elephants in the country, and numerous unicorns, which are very nearly as big. They have hair like that of a buffalo, feet like those of an elephant, and a horn in the middle of the forehead, which is black and very thick.

For instance, many eastern cultures use rhinoceros horn as a cure http://www.nationalgeographic.com/wildworld/himalaya/conservationfacts.html

Eastern Himalayan Broadleaf and Conifer Forests Conservation Tips Although the Himalayas may conjure up images of invincibility, the temperate forests at the foothills of the rugged mountains are teeming with life that faces many threats. By examining some of our choices as consumers, we can reduce the demand for products and services that harm these wild spaces and wild species. Be a smart tourist: Tourism to wild areas like the Eastern Himalayas can sometimes degrade the natural environment that draws visitors in the first place. Before your next trip, do some research and support ecotourism operations that help protect biodiversity by creating incentives to protect it. For example, patronize those that use alternative fuel for cooking and heating, such as gas and kerosene, instead of scarce wood that local people depend on. Organized tours, travel agencies, and local facilities that are ecologically sensitive can also boost the local economy, creating demand for accommodations, food, and local guides while minimizing the impact on the local ecosystem. Use the right medicine: In many cultures, traditional healers have been treating ailments ranging from arthritis to dizziness for thousands of years using medicines derived from plant and animal parts. Unfortunately, some of the wildlife from which these medicines are derived are now endangered or threatened species.
