A bit about Black Rhinoceros which now is an endangered species.
This slide made for a presentation in the Environmental Science class at Assumption University of Thailand.
Educational Purpose Only.
The presentation discusses the black rhino, which has two or more horns on its head and lives in protected areas in parts of Africa. It notes that the total population of black rhinos is now around 3,500 individuals, with numbers generally stable over the last 10-15 years but varying between separate populations. The document concludes that black rhinos are critically endangered due to poaching for their horns, which are illegally traded on the black market.
Rhinoceroses are large, grey land mammals that have one or two horns and live in parts of Africa and Asia. There are five rhino species that vary in size from 1.5-1.8 meters tall and 350kg-4 tons in weight. Rhinos are solitary and territorial, using their horns to defend territories and mates. They are threatened by hunting for their horns and loss of habitat.
This document provides information about lions in 3 sentences or less per paragraph. It covers lions' habitat in savannas and grasslands, their social structure in prides led by males, their diet of large prey such as zebra and wildebeest, and differences between species like African and Asian lions. Background is given on the author and concepts like food webs are explained. Photos illustrate lions of various ages and sizes in habitats from the wild to zoos. Sources are listed for the images.
There are five types of rhinos: White, Black, Indian, Sumatran, and Javan. Rhinos are critically endangered due to poaching for their horns. Statistics provided indicate there are approximately 24,000 rhinos remaining worldwide. The Javan rhino has fewer than 100 individuals left. Rhinos live in Africa, Asia, and India and have thick skin, poor eyesight but good hearing. Their horns are made of keratin like human hair and nails.
Snow leopards inhabit the high mountains of Central Asia, with an estimated population of 4,080-6,590 across 12 countries. Threats to snow leopards include poaching, retribution killing by herders, habitat and prey loss, and insufficient conservation. To effectively monitor snow leopards and the impact of conservation efforts, surveys use methods such as sign transects to determine relative abundance, and camera trapping and DNA analysis of scat and hair to determine absolute abundance and population changes over time. Information from such monitoring is important for snow leopard conservation goals.
This document provides an overview of rhinoceros species presented by Md. Saiful Islam from Bangladesh Agricultural University. It discusses the five extant rhino species, including their naming, taxonomy, distribution, physical characteristics, horns, biological characteristics, behavior, diseases and treatment. Key details include the different species found in Africa and Asia, their sizes and weights, diet of grasses and other plants, gestation period of around 15 months, and common diseases like tuberculosis, salmonellosis and parasites along with their treatments.
Rhino populations have drastically declined over the past century from 500,000 to just 29,000 today due to poaching and habitat loss. The Javan and Sumatran rhino species in Asia are critically endangered with fewer than 100 Sumatran rhinos remaining in the wild. While the Southern white rhino population has increased to over 20,000, only five Northern white rhinos remain. Black rhinos are also critically endangered with just over 5,000 in the wild. Poaching for rhino horn, which is valued in Asian medicine, is the most pressing threat along with habitat loss and political conflicts. Conservation efforts are ongoing but rhino populations remain in danger.

The salmon life cycle has several stages:
1. Eggs are laid in gravel stream beds and hatch after a month into alevin with large yolk sacs.
2. Alevin absorb their yolk sacs and emerge as fry to feed on plankton and insects.
3. Fry develop stripes and turn silver as smolt before swimming to the ocean to grow as adults.
4. Mature adults return to their home streams to spawn, digging nests to lay eggs before dying.
Snow leopards live in the mountainous regions of Central and South Asia. There are estimated to be only between 3,920 to 6,390 snow leopards remaining in the wild. They are classified as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List and critically endangered within Pakistan. Snow leopards face threats of poaching, habitat loss, and conflict with local communities over prey and livestock. Conservation groups like the Snow Leopard Foundation work to protect snow leopard populations and their habitats in places like Pakistan.
Los leones viven en manadas de 2 a 20 hembras y 1 a 7 machos. Cazan en grupo presas de 50 a 500 kg como búfalos y ñus. Las hembras dan a luz cada 2 años a camadas de 2-3 cachorros. Habitan en la mayor parte de África excepto el desierto del Sahara, así como en el interior de las selvas de Asia.
This document discusses barriers to animal dispersal in various environments. It defines barriers as any physical, climatic, or ecological factor that restricts an animal's distribution. Barriers are classified into four main categories: physiological, ecological, behavioral, and artificial. Physiological barriers include inhospitable climates, high salinity levels, and deep ocean pressures. Ecological barriers involve lack of food or incompatible ecosystems. Behavioral barriers refer to an animal's unwillingness to cross certain areas. Artificial barriers are caused by human activities. The document then examines barriers specific to marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments, such as landmasses, temperature variations, and mountain ranges. Overall, the effectiveness of a barrier depends on both the
The document summarizes the evolution and taxonomy of modern rhinoceros species. It describes the first rhinos appearing in Eurasia in the late Eocene, with pig-sized Menoceras having two side-by-side horns. Modern rhinos are thought to have dispersed from Europe and Asia during the Miocene. The two living African rhino species can be traced to the late Miocene 6 million year old Ceratotherium neumayri. There are five living rhino species described in detail, along with their distinguishing characteristics and population statuses. Rhino horns only consist of keratin and have been historically used for traditional medicines and dagger handles, though beliefs in their medical properties are unfounded.
Lions primarily live in Africa and parts of Asia and India in family groups called prides of 7 to 10 or more lions. Lionesses do most of the hunting to catch prey like bovine animals, young elephants, hippos and rhinos using their paws and teeth. Lions have a body length of 170-190cm, tail length of 70-150cm, shoulder height of 80-110cm and weigh 150-225kg for males and 120-150kg for females.
The Indian fox, also known as the Bengal fox, is a small fox species endemic to the Indian subcontinent. It inhabits grasslands, forests, and mountains from Nepal and India to Bangladesh. Indian foxes feed on small mammals, birds, reptiles, insects, and fruits. They live in pairs in burrows and give birth to litters of 4 kits after a 53 day gestation period. While widespread, Indian fox populations are declining due to habitat loss and hunting, though they remain listed as Least Concern.

This document outlines a lesson plan about threats to biodiversity in Africa, focusing on poaching. It includes directions for students to watch documentaries about endangered black rhinos, elephants, and northern white rhinos. Students are asked to take notes on poaching and its consequences. They also research an individual endangered African animal and present on it. The lesson emphasizes that endangered species should be protected to maintain healthy ecosystems and biodiversity, and suggests ways individuals can help endangered wildlife conservation efforts.
Thousands of animals worldwide are killed through poaching every year for items like ivory, medicine, and sport. Poaching has drastically reduced populations of tigers from 100,000 in 1900 to only 4,000 in 1990 and cut Africa's elephant population in half by killing them for their tusks. Rhinoceros are also poached for their horns, which are sold for high prices in China due to traditional beliefs. Sharks have their fins sliced off and are thrown back in the ocean unable to swim so their fins can be used for cancer treatments. However, organizations are working to stop poaching and protect endangered species.
This document discusses endangered animals and some species that are at risk of extinction. It states that over 40% of the world's species are categorized as likely to become extinct, often due to habitat destruction, pollution, and hunting. Specific animals mentioned include the South China tiger, which has been nearly wiped out by hunting and can now only be found in zoos; mountain gorillas, which are vulnerable to diseases transmitted by humans who have moved into their habitat; and black rhinos, over 96% of which were killed for their horns between 1970 and 1992 in Africa. Extinct animals mentioned are the Zanzibar leopard, Javan tiger, little blue macaw, and Tasmanian tiger.
This document discusses endangered species, their conservation statuses, threats they face such as hunting and habitat loss, and conservation efforts like captive breeding programs, reintroductions to the wild, and educating the public. Examples are given of species from critically endangered black rhinos to success stories like the Antiguan racer snake that was brought back from near extinction through conservation programs.
Africa's lions are disappearing and humans have themselves to blame gr9Tara Brophy
Lions are disappearing rapidly across Africa, especially in West and Central Africa, where human activities like farming, hunting, and habitat loss have reduced lion populations to only a few small groups. A recent study found that lions now only occupy 1% of their historic range in West Africa, where the population has dwindled to just 400 individuals, making them the most endangered lions on Earth. Unless strong conservation efforts are taken to protect the remaining lions and their habitats, the article predicts that lion numbers across Africa could plummet by half within the next two decades.
Organizations are trying to stop rhino and elephant poaching in Africa. Poaching has dramatically reduced rhino and elephant populations - at least 2 rhinos and nearly 100 elephants are killed daily by poachers. There are now only around 5,000 black rhinos and 20,000 white rhinos left in the world. Elephant numbers in Africa have declined from 1.3 million to an estimated 470,000-600,000. Rhinos and elephants now live in small, fragmented areas of Africa compared to their historic ranges due to poaching for their horns and tusks, which are illegally trafficked for their perceived medicinal value.

Poaching involves illegally hunting, killing, or capturing animals. It is common in developing countries and leads to species extinction. Animals are poached for their hides, meats, bones, and other body parts, which are sold and used for clothing, jewelry, food, and traditional medicines. The most commonly poached animals are elephants, rhinoceros, leopards, tigers, lions, and pandas. Their tusks, horns, skins, and other parts fetch high prices on the black market. Efforts to stop poaching include deterring poachers, increasing enforcement, and educating local communities. Both governmental and non-governmental organizations work to protect wildlife from this threat.

Myths, Superstitions, Wildlife Destruction and Forensic AspectArchana Mahakalkar
This document discusses several issues relating to myths, superstitions, and the illegal wildlife trade:
- Wildlife populations have declined dramatically, with a 52% decrease in global populations from 1970-2014, largely due to poaching and the illegal wildlife trade.
- Poachers kill animals like rhinos and pangolins for their horns, scales, and other body parts, which are used in traditional medicines despite no scientific evidence of medicinal properties.
- The illegal wildlife trade is the third largest illegal trade after drugs and firearms, driven by myths and demand for status symbols. While proponents claim medicinal uses, the real motivation is financial.
- Conservation efforts are hampered by a lack of awareness and enforcement

Panthera is an organization devoted to preserving wild cats and their ecosystems. It develops strategies based on science to protect cheetahs, jaguars, leopards, lions, pumas, snow leopards and tigers. WildAid's mission is to end the illegal wildlife trade by changing consumer behavior. WildCRU was founded in 1986 and conducts original research to achieve practical conservation solutions, particularly for wild cats including lions. The document provides background on these three organizations and then summarizes a report on the crisis facing Africa's lions, whose populations have declined 43% in the past two decades due to loss of habitat and threats like retaliatory killing and bushmeat hunting.
The African elephant is an endangered species facing extinction due to hunting and poaching for ivory, habitat loss, and decreasing populations. Poaching for ivory and trophy hunting is the main driver of their decline, reducing elephant numbers from millions to only thousands. As human settlements expanded, they claimed elephant habitats. Remaining elephants are further threatened as poachers still kill them for their rare and expensive ivory. Their numbers decreased by over 600,000 in just 20 years. Conservation efforts aim to protect these threatened giants.

The quiz questions at the end test knowledge about unique animal migration patterns, distributions, physical traits, and endangered species.
How Humans Effect Africas Endangered Speciesguestf2019a9
Humans have negatively impacted several endangered species in Africa. Black rhinoceros have been poached for their horns for use in Chinese medicine and jewelry, reducing their population. Gorillas have been poached for their fur and lost habitat to development, endangering the species. The geometric tortoise, with only 2,000-3,000 remaining, has been poached for its decorative shell. Conservation efforts have established protected areas and regulations, but continued protection is needed to ensure these species' survival.
Poaching of elephants and rhinos occurs for their tusks and horns, which are used for ivory and traditional medicine. Poachers often use weapons and sell the animal parts for drugs, weapons, or quick money. Captured poachers may be fined or dealt with by the military. Poaching happens in areas like East Africa, India, and South America and threatens animal populations. Groups like WWF, IFAW, and others work to stop poaching through rangers, petitions, awareness, and funds to protect threatened wildlife.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
