All About Endangered Species - Investigate the precious animals that have worryingly lows populations. For a long time, between the 17th and 20th centuries, whales were hunted heavily for oil. This hunting, which is known as whaling, almost made the blue whale completely extinct. Before this era of whaling, there were around 200,000 – 300,000 whales but after, there were just 5,000 – 12,000. The good news is that conservation efforts can save animals from extinction. Success stories include that of the giant panda, which is no longer endangered following 50 years of conservation efforts.

My kids are 9, 5, and 3. Each of them created an endangered species poster appropriate for their ages. Of the ten animals in Endangered Species, eight remain endangered species, as two were removed in 1983 and 2007. Pine Barren’s tree frog was removed from the list of endangered species in 1983, shortly after the artist had created the series due to inaccurate data on the species.The Sea Turtle was not part of the Endangered Species series and created two years later in 1985. However, sea turtles are another endangered species. Warhol created this screenprint as a way to connect with the 1985 adaptation of the Russell Hoban Novel. Turtle 360A is the name of this blue and purple print and was published for the Turtle Diary film in 1985. This film follows a couple from the UK that met each other for the first time at a Sea Turtle exhibit in the London zoo.

Warhol’s impact on environmental conservation can still be witnessed today, even after passing in 1987. Before he died, Warhol bought 15.1 acres of beachfront property in Montauk, Long Beach, which he left in a pristine condition. He arranged the ownership of the property to be transferred after his death to the Nature Conservancy. He also donated the Andy Warhol Preserve to be part of a land conservancy. He said: In Don’t Let Them Disappear, we learn about 12 different endangered species – giraffes, gorillas, blue whales, rhinos, pandas, whale sharks, polar bears, lions, sea otters, orangutans, tigers, and elephants. The book tells us a little bit about each animal including some fun facts and why they are endangered.

This poster provides the space for children to design their own posters, using inspiration from the examples on the sheet and things they have learnt from previous lessons. While there is no one-fits-all solution, the success of these projects is encouraging. Saving smaller creatures that are integral to an ecosystem can also ensure the longevity of other, bigger species. Endangered Animals For Kids: Educational Video With the destruction of rainforests comes the destruction of the orangutan's habitats. To make their situation even worse, they are at risk from illegal hunting, where the females are killed, so their babies can be sold illegally as pets.The golden lion tamarin, also known as the golden marmoset, is a species of New World monkey. Golden lion tamarins are small creatures with vibrant red fur on its body and completely hairless feet.

What’s more, golden lion tamarins only weigh around 400 to 822 g, with very little difference between the male and female of the species.
