Why are animals in danger?
A million years ago there were a lot more species of animals than there are now. Of course, some species disappear naturally, but today they are disappearing faster than before.
Animals are in danger because we, people, can't protect them. There are certainly changes in the weather and some animals die because of these changes but there are a lot of endangered animals because people do not think about them, they don't take care of animals.
We put new buildings on empty land, we make new roads, we move rivers, we take away trees. In fact we destroy the animals' natural habitats. We are taking the natural homes of animals very fast. Sometimes we take animals from their natural home to a different country. In this new home, other animals do not know the newcomer and are not afraid of it. Black rats went by ship from Asia to the Galapagos Islands and killed many different species of birds. Some of those birds lived nowhere but on the Galapagos, and after the rats came they disappeared.
In many countries people make a lot of money from animals. Many animals are in danger because their coats are beautiful and some people would like to have them, to put in their houses or to wear.
