At our zoo we house many Endangered Species. We try to house the most critically endangered species, most of these species are becoming endangered because of humans.
| Species | Endangered Level |
|---|---|
| African Forest Elephants | Critically endangered |
| Amur leopards | Critically endangered/teetering on extinction |
| Bornean Orangutans | Critically endangered |
| Hawksbill turtles | Critically endangered |
| Vaquitas | Edge of extinction |
Some of the biggest reasons these animals in the table are critically endangered or close to extinction is because of human intolerance. The reason that some of the animals are on the edge of extinction is because of a history of humans hunting them, the amur leapord was constantly poached because of its beautiful spotted fur that sold for a hefty sum.
