What does endangered species
mean?
• When a species is likely to become endangered, it
is called a threatened species.
• When a species is in danger of extinction, it is
called an endangered species.
• When a species is no longer existing or living, it is
called being extinct.
• The first step (in Kansas) is called SINC,
• Species in need of conservation
Why are species endangered?
• Endangered animals are animals that are in
danger of becoming extinct.
• Causes include:
– Habitat destruction / population pressure
– Collection and hunting / poaching
– New plants and animals being introduced that don’t
belong there
– Pollution
• See HIPPO
What kinds of endangered are
species?
• Animals in all groups can become endangered.
• Plants can also become endangered.
Cheetahs are one animal that is currently endangered.
Agueweed is one plant that is currently endangered.

Endangered Animal Numbers
• Currently, there are over
– 342 mammals
– 271 birds
– 115 reptiles
– 30 amphibians
– 125 fish
– 48 insects
– 21 crustaceans
that are endangered in the world today.
Endangered Plant Numbers
• Currently, there are over
– 714 flowering plants
– 5 kinds of conifers and cyads
– 26 kinds of ferns
– 2 kinds of lichens
The Black Lace Cactus is one plant
that is currently on the endangered
list.
Why should we save these species?
• They serve medicinal purposes.
– All kinds of plants and animals
contribute to some kind of
prescription medication.
– About 40% of all prescriptions
written today are made from the
natural compounds of different
species.
– Digitalis, a heart medication which
saves more than 3 million heart
disease sufferers, is made from the
purple foxglove, an endangered
plant. The purple foxglove is a
medicinal plant that is currently
endangered.
Why should we save these species?
• They serve agricultural purposes.
– Wild relatives of common crops such as wheat and corn
contain disease-resistant material essential to humans.
– These plants also provide people with ways to develop
new crops for lands that don’t normally grow crops well.
Why should we save these species?
• These animals are very important to the ecology
of out earth.
– Since people depend on many different ecosystems for
food and water, when a species is in trouble, it is a sign
that the ecosystem isn’t doing well.
– The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service estimates that losing
one plant species can trigger the loss of up to 30 other
insect, plant, and other higher animal species.
Why should we save these species?
• These animals also serve recreational purposes.
– Zoos and other animal exhibits often help bring in
tourism, while helping to educate about these
animals.
MORAL
• A Moral obligation to…
• The people that depend on those species and
• Future generations
• If we don’t help to save these animals, they will
soon die out, and then they’d be gone forever,
leaving future generations without the chance to
get to see and learn about all these creatures.
Thank You

Endangered species

  • 2. What does endangered species mean? • When a species is likely to become endangered, it is called a threatened species. • When a species is in danger of extinction, it is called an endangered species. • When a species is no longer existing or living, it is called being extinct. • The first step (in Kansas) is called SINC, • Species in need of conservation
  • 3. Why are species endangered? • Endangered animals are animals that are in danger of becoming extinct. • Causes include: – Habitat destruction / population pressure – Collection and hunting / poaching – New plants and animals being introduced that don’t belong there – Pollution • See HIPPO
  • 4. What kinds of endangered are species? • Animals in all groups can become endangered. • Plants can also become endangered. Cheetahs are one animal that is currently endangered. Agueweed is one plant that is currently endangered.
  • 6. Endangered Animals Bald Eagle Spix’s Macaw Spanish Imperial Eagle California Condor
  • 7. Endangered Animals Topeka Shiner Devil’s Hole pupfish White River springfish Woundfin
  • 8. Endangered Animals Corsican Snail Kentucky Cave Shrimp Queen Conch Tooth Cave Spider Spotted Tree Frog
  • 9. Endangered Plants Abutilon menziesii, the flowering maple from Hawaii The Lupine, in Palo Alto, CA The purpurea, found all over North America Mead’s Milkweed
  • 10. Endangered Plants Dwarf Mountain Pine Camellias Blagay Daphne Small Whilte Lady’s Slipper
  • 12. Endangered Plant Indigenous fern Ferns in the Mangrove Forest
  • 16. Tiger
  • 19. Endangered Animal Numbers • Currently, there are over – 342 mammals – 271 birds – 115 reptiles – 30 amphibians – 125 fish – 48 insects – 21 crustaceans that are endangered in the world today.
  • 20. Endangered Plant Numbers • Currently, there are over – 714 flowering plants – 5 kinds of conifers and cyads – 26 kinds of ferns – 2 kinds of lichens The Black Lace Cactus is one plant that is currently on the endangered list.
  • 21. Why should we save these species? • They serve medicinal purposes. – All kinds of plants and animals contribute to some kind of prescription medication. – About 40% of all prescriptions written today are made from the natural compounds of different species. – Digitalis, a heart medication which saves more than 3 million heart disease sufferers, is made from the purple foxglove, an endangered plant. The purple foxglove is a medicinal plant that is currently endangered.
  • 22. Why should we save these species? • They serve agricultural purposes. – Wild relatives of common crops such as wheat and corn contain disease-resistant material essential to humans. – These plants also provide people with ways to develop new crops for lands that don’t normally grow crops well.
  • 23. Why should we save these species? • These animals are very important to the ecology of out earth. – Since people depend on many different ecosystems for food and water, when a species is in trouble, it is a sign that the ecosystem isn’t doing well. – The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service estimates that losing one plant species can trigger the loss of up to 30 other insect, plant, and other higher animal species.
