The South China tiger is a critically endangered subspecies that once inhabited dense forests in southern China. In the 1950s, there were an estimated 4,000 individuals in the wild, but unregulated hunting, habitat loss, and other factors caused populations to plummet to just 30-80 individuals by the 1990s. Extensive surveys since then have failed to reliably confirm any wild South China tigers still exist, so the subspecies is considered functionally extinct in the wild.

The Gray Wolf
The gray wolf is a large carnivore found in northern Minnesota, northern Wisconsin, Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Alaska, Canada, and other northern regions. It eats large prey like deer, elk, and moose. While once hunted extensively, the gray wolf is now federally threatened and a species of special concern in Minnesota. Protections under the Endangered Species Act have allowed wolf populations to recover in parts of their former range.
Wildlife extinction
Endangered species may become extinct much faster than previously thought, with some at risk of extinction within months rather than years. Habitat loss, hunting, pollution and introduction of invasive species have endangered many species worldwide. Unless action is taken to protect threatened habitats and curb human activities contributing to extinction, the world risks losing a significant percentage of its biodiversity.

The greater horseshoe bat, Siberian tiger, and loggerhead turtle are among the most endangered animals. Their populations have declined due to hunting, habitat loss, and unintended killing in fishing nets. Conservation efforts aim to protect critical habitats and breeding sites, and recover populations through intensive protection and recovery plans. However, without addressing the root causes of habitat destruction and reducing human impact, these species will remain at high risk of extinction.

Tiger aaya ush ho jao varna ye tumhe kaatlege
The tiger population in India declined drastically in the 20th century from around 40,000 to just 2,500 by 1982. This led the Indian government to launch Project Tiger in 1973 to protect tigers. Key reasons for the population decline include over-hunting during British colonial rule when hundreds of thousands of tigers and other animals were killed for sport or rewards. Habitat loss and poaching also contributed to declining tiger numbers. Project Tiger aimed to establish tiger reserves and strengthen conservation efforts to save tigers from extinction in India.
Top ten endangered species in the world
Rhinos, giant pandas, and tigers are among the top ten most endangered species due to habitat loss and poaching for traditional medicines and body parts. Sturgeons are also threatened by overfishing for their valuable caviar, while goldenseal, alligator snapping turtles, and hawksbill turtles are endangered due to overharvesting for traditional remedies and international trade of their shells and meat. Big leaf mahogany, green-cheeked parrots, and mako sharks also face threats including deforestation, the pet trade, and finning.
Winsor rhino
This document provides interesting facts about rhinos, including that a baby rhino weighs 20 times a human baby, black rhinos live in Africa, and most rhinos like to live alone, ranging from 3 to 15 kilometers. It notes that white rhinos are the biggest and that rhinos are endangered because people killed them for their horns. The document also classifies rhinos as vertebrate mammals that live in herds or crashes, live in Africa in woodlands and caves, eat grass and leaves, and are related to tapirs.
Yak
The yak is a long-haired bovid found in the Himalayan region. It has thick wooly coats that can be brown, black, or white and help preserve body heat. Yaks graze on grass, lichens, moss, and tubers. Wild yaks form herds of 10-30 animals while domesticated yaks have been kept for thousands of years for their milk, fiber, meat, and dung used as fuel. Yak wool is soft and warm while their milk is rich in fat and used to make yogurt, butter, and cheese. Some cultures have traditions of yak racing and skiing for entertainment. Unfortunately, wild yak populations are declining due to hunting and
Markhor
Markhor is a wild goat inhabiting mountainous regions of Pakistan in five subspecies. It prefers steep cliffs for protection from predators. Markhor plays a crucial role in the mountain ecosystem food web. However, the world population is declining due to threats like trophy hunting and habitat loss. Conservation organizations like WCS and WWF Pakistan are working to protect the endangered Markhor and its habitat in the mountains of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Kashmir.
Markhor
The Markhor is a species of wild goat found in Northeastern Afghanistan, Northern Pakistan, parts of Kashmir, and southern Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. It is Pakistan's national animal. Markhors have tightly curled horns and a grizzled coat color. They are herbivores who graze on grasses and browse on leaves, herbs, fruits and flowers depending on the season. Markhors are endangered due to hunting for food and their medicinal horns, as well as habitat loss and competition with domestic livestock. Conservation efforts include bans on hunting and trophy hunting programs.
Extinct and Endangered species
The natural environment encompasses all living and non-living things that occur naturally on Earth. It includes complete ecological systems, universal natural resources, and physical phenomena. Wildlife can be found in nearly all ecosystems but is impacted by human activities. Many animal species are becoming extinct faster than since the dinosaurs died out, with over 500 species in the US endangered or threatened. The Kashmir stag is listed as critically endangered with a population of only around 160 remaining.
Markhor
The Markhor is a species of wild goat found in northeastern Afghanistan, northern and central Pakistan, India, southern Tajikistan, eastern Turkmenistan, southern Uzbekistan, and the Himalayas. It inhabits mountainous scrub forest habitats between 600-3,600 meters in elevation. Humans pose the primary threat through hunting for subsistence, trade, and trophy hunting, which has led to population fragmentation and declines. Conservation efforts include reserves in Tajikistan and protected status in India, while Pakistan allows regulated trophy hunting to support conservation. The Markhor is Pakistan's national animal and appears in their culture.

Wildlife includes all non-domesticated plants, animals and other organisms. The Wildlife Protection Act of 1972 established protected species and outlawed hunting many plants and animals in India. Wildlife provides food and traditional medicines for humans in some areas and is also hunted for sport, though overhunting can threaten populations. Habitat destruction and introduced invasive species also endanger wildlife.

The document discusses the traditional procurement method for construction projects. It begins by outlining the key aspects of the traditional method, including that the client hires consultants to handle design, cost control, and administration, while a contractor is hired to carry out the construction works. It then discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the traditional method based on a client's request to build a RM1.2 billion hotel and shopping complex within 5 years while maintaining full design control and minimal variations. The document recommends using the traditional method to meet the client's needs and control over the project. It provides a timeline and overview of risks associated with the traditional procurement approach.
Pp1 group assignment presentation slides
This document provides an overview of traditional procurement and two-stage selective tendering processes for construction projects. Traditional procurement involves four stages - brief, design, tendering, and construction - and offers benefits like on-time completion, cost certainty, and full design control but has drawbacks like increased timeframes and risk of design variations. Two-stage selective tendering invites pre-qualified contractors to tender and aims to be transparent while eliminating non-performing contractors and reducing costs. Lump sum contracts define the requested work to minimize price variations, while PAM contracts from 2006 establish legal obligations and quality standards for building projects in Malaysia. Health and safety practices like appointing advisors and site management plans help enhance worker safety.

Plumeria obtusa
Plumeria obtusa, commonly known as the Singapore Graveyard Flower or White Frangipani, is a plant native to the Bahamas, Central America, and Cambodia. It was introduced to Hawaii from Singapore in 1931 and is widely cultivated around the world for its ornamental and fragrant flowers. The flowers of P. obtusa are borne in clusters and the plant has glossy, obovate leaves with blunt ends. It grows best in dry to medium soil with a pH of 6.6 to 7.5.
Circle of life
The butterfly and hibiscus flower have a symbiotic mutualistic relationship where they both benefit each other for survival. The hibiscus produces nectar that butterflies consume for nutrients and uses the flower as shelter, while the butterfly pollinates the hibiscus by carrying pollen from one plant to another, helping the species perpetuate by forming seeds. Their interdependence demonstrates that giving to others benefits both parties, reflecting the saying that life is best lived by helping others.
Biodiversity report
The South China tiger is a critically endangered subspecies of tiger native to southern China.
