If you think about it, every single species is endangered. Homo sapiens at the front of the line, mosquitoes and lawyers at the back.

Endangered species are our friends.
I do think we're an endangered species. But that we do have a plan to save the rainforest.
Chimpanzees are endangered. Severely.
All over the world the wildlife that I write about is in grave danger. It is being exterminated by what we call the progress of civilization.
If you want to see an endangered species, get up and look in the mirror.
In prehistoric times, Homo sapiens was deeply endangered. Early humans were less fleet of foot, with fewer natural weapons and less well-honed senses than all the predators that threatened them. Moreover, they were hampered in their movements by the need to protect their uniquely immature young - juicy meals for any hungry beast.
We all have a responsibility to protect endangered species, both for their sake and for the sake of our own future generations.
Species go extinct because there are historical contraints built into a given body or a given design.
People need to look at wildlife conservation in its totality. As soon as you lose the apex predator, it has harmful consequences right down the food chain.
The Earth is not endangered by humanity. But humanity is being seriously threatened by those who follow the guides of the WWF.
