Endangered Species If we don’t protect animals, some species will disappear in the future. If we don’t protect plants, we shall have more hungry people in the future. If we destroy nature, we shall destroy our lives too. Giant pandas, tigers, elephants, polar bears, rhinos, whales and dolphins are the most endangered species in the world. We have to protect them for future generations. We have to make sure that this world will be home to these animals in the future as well. There are less than 4,000 tigers in the world today. A tiger is the largest of all cats. Besides, it’s one of the most charismatic animals. Most tigers have more than 100 stripes. An interesting fact is that there are no two tigers with identical stripes. Tigers may soon disappear. Hunters and traders must stop killing and snaring them. If you want to help us, join our organization!
