Endangered Species Of Wisconsin teachers will learn a variety of games and activities that can be used in the classroomor in the field to teach about endangered plants and animals and to http://www.saga-design.com/insight/endanger.htm
Extractions: A Professional Development Program for Elementary School Teachers Many Wisconsin plants and animals are in trouble and many Wisconsin teachers are not aware that our state has its own list of species in danger or decline. The result is an elementary school population that is exposed to charismatic species at the global level and remains unaware of threatened plants and animals that inhabit Wisconsin's woods and prairies, ponds and streams, and sometimes, our own back yards. Threatened and Endangered Species of Wisconsin is designed to provide teachers with a basic awareness of threatened and endangered species that are indigenous to Wisconsin and to help them understand the human activities that pose the greatest risks to the welfare and recovery of these species. Teachers will learn a variety of games and activities that can be used in the classroom or in the field to teach about endangered plants and animals and to define the concept of stewardship as it relates to the protection and recovery of Wisconsin's threatened and endangered species. What do they have in common?

Extractions: Zoos Animals in zoos are forced to live in artificial, stressful, and downright boring conditions. Removed from their natural habitats and social structures, they are confined to small, restrictive environments that deprive them of mental and physical stimulation. While zoos claim to provide conservation, education, and entertainment, their primary goal is to sustain public support in order to increase profits. Conservation Zoos profess to practice conservation, in other words, the preservation of various species, claiming that without their efforts, certain species would become extinct. However, if they were truly concerned with the preservation of species, they would instead work to preserve animals natural habitat. For it is in fact humans who are eroding the natural habitat of numerous species through pollution, rangeland degradation, topsoil erosion, crop and groundwater contamination, and other harmful processes. While a number of zoos make an effort to provide some sort of education, they mostly teach people how animals react in captive situations. Patrons are unable to witness how multifaceted the lives of animals truly are. Instead, zoo-goers observe animals reactions to boredom, depression, and stress.

The Trouble With Hunting When the Europeans came to Africa, they often hunted the native animals for sport and for their furs and tusks. Wars: Trouble For People; Trouble For Animals! Europeans came to Africa and took over territory. Disputes arose about this and there was fighting. Many innocent people died in these wars. Other innocent victims of the fighting were the animals. Don't Get On This List! The official list of endangered animals is called The Red List. It is kept by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources. This organization looks at the number of animals in the wild and what is happening to the animals' habitat. They look at environmental and predatory dangers that the species might be facing. At a meeting of the IUCN Council in November 1994, this organization set up guidelines to put animals in certain categories. These categories help people all over the world better understand what they must do to protect animals that are in danger of extinction. To find out more about The Red List you can go to

Animal Aid : Youth : Animals In Captivity hard to see how looking at caged wild animals can teach us anything It is clear thatcaptive breeding programmes will not save the world's endangered animals. http://www.animalaid.org.uk/youth/topics/captivity/zoos.htm
Extractions: The first zoos were private collections of wild animals established by kings and other rich people for their own amusement. London Zoo was one of the first public zoos act up to display exotic and unusual animals collected from all corners of the British Empire. In those early days, of course, there were no nature programmes or films about wild animals, so people visited zoos to learn about them. Today, however, people are beginning to question whether we should still have zoos where wild animals are kept in cages for the amusement of the public. Zoos say that they care for their animals and that they not only provide people with an enjoyable day out, but also do valuable conservation work and help to educate people about the plight of wild animals. Some argue that visiting the zoo helps people to understand and respect wildlife, but it is hard to see how looking at caged wild animals can teach us anything useful. Animals kept in zoos do not behave naturally because they are kept in a totally unnatural environment. Recent studies of zoo animals have shown that many of the inmates are not only very

Extractions: WHAT IS LANGUAGE LANGUAGE IN NON-HUMAN SPECIES INTERMEDIATE STAGES BIBLIOGRAPHY ... PRIMATES HELPING PRIMATES From Africa to Southeast Asia the worlds great apes are in danger of becoming extinct. The UN is on a mission to save these precious animals, gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees, and bonobos, from dying off. Great apes still live in 23 countries and experts working to save the last great apes in the wild are hoping to keep it that way. Conservationists led by the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) have launched a global effort to save the great apes from extinction in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. The Great Apes Survival Project (GRASP) targets 23 areas where gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees, bonobos, and other primates are near extinction as a result of war, habitat destruction, and poaching for trophies, souvenirs, and meat. It seems grotesque that the peaceful bonobos cannot escape the chaos of civil war in Congo. Pacifism happens to be the principal attribute of bonobos, very unlike their aggressive human relatives. Experts estimates that in five to ten years some of these primates will be extinct across most of their range. Not one species of primates has been lost in the past century, but now 25 species of apes, monkeys, lemurs and other primates are imperiled and may soon disappear.
