Speech: Endangered animals

Imagine when they're were millions of different types of animal species in the world. Now there are only a few thousand of animal species left. Why, because of us. What are we doing so wrong. Because of us many kinds of animals are ether endangered or extinct. With my guidance I will tell you everything you can do to help save our creatures.

Some of you probably don't know what endangered means or some other scientific words so I will tell you what they mean. First word vulnerable: describes animals that may soon become endanger. Next word, endanger :describes animals that are endanger of dying out in the wild. Last word:extinct describes an animal no longer living on earth.

Now that I've told you what the scientific word means, let's talk about which animals are endangered. Some endangered animals now are the cuddly pandas, giant blue whales, howling wolfs,intelligent orangutans, stripy adorable tigers, snowy white polar bears, peaceful manatees, and others are also endangered.

Since I've told you which animals are endangered let's specifically talk about one animal. The first one I will talk about is wolves. They're red wolves, which are critically endangered, there are only 300 left. Their is also a Ethiopian wolf. There are only 550 left. One more wolf that is vulnerable is the grey wolf. There are only 200,000 left. If you want to help these innocent wolves go to this website www.wolfhaven.org to see how you can help.

Now I think everybody knows that pandas are endangered and that they live in china. Pandas are endangered because people are ruining their habitat and taking their bamboo. People are taking their bamboo which is the only food they eat. When the bamboo has a disease by the weather, the bamboo could die. If there is no bamboo the panda will starve to death. If you want to help out these cuddly pandas read, watch, and find out all about pandas and ways you can help.

You may know that polar bears live in arctic where it's really cold but the arctic is turning warmer, because of global warming. Global warming is starting because we are using to much electricity. The way you can help is by turning off anything that uses electricity when you don't need it.

Orangutans live in rainforests, which is a dangerous place because 80% of rainforests where orangutans live has now been destroyed by us. A way you can help is buy wood approved by wildlife protection.

The last specie of animal I will talk about is the manatee. Manatees are endangered because of lots of things. Manatees are endangered because of getting hit by a boat or getting trapped in nets. Imagine you getting stuck in a net or getting hit by a boat. Now if people are in boats where manatees live, they have to be very careful If you would like to help visit www.savethemanatee.org

So do you get my point now, their are thousands of animals that are endangered because of us. Hopefully you have been listening to see how you can help our creatures.
