Presents one hundred animals and plants that are under the threat of extinction, providing information on population in the wild, conservation status, life span, geographic range, and threats, and includes ways the reader can help to save these animals and plants.
This book is a tidy little resource to familiarize one's self with some of the world's endangered plants and animals. It also provides the reader with information on "What You Can Do" to help that particular species. The provided links to many great organizations makes this book a valuable resource.
A great book, it does a very good job of highlighting the risks to endangered species around the globe. Not just the flagship species, such as tigers, but also animals such as the water vole and the toad.
It gives the contact details of all the charities who nominated an animal, or plant to be included in the book.
The book really inspired me to get involved in helping to save our wildlife, before it’s too late.
I recommend it to anyone interested in protecting our nature.
