Every few years, the increase in the list of endangered
and threatened species is staggering. The IUCN - World Conservation
Union, through its Species Survival Commission has for four decades
been assessing the conservation status of species, subspecies, varieties
and even selected subpopulations on a global scale in order to promote
their conservation.
We bring you a showcase of threatened and endangered
species, some perhaps may never be known to future generations due
to their critically endangered and vulnerable status.
