• 5 of the World's Rarest and Most Endangered Plants
• Western Underground Orchid

  A plant that spends its entire life living underground in Western Australia
• Pitcher plant


  Otherworldly plants that only inhabit small sections of South American rainforests, and require extremely high humidity and moisture to survive
• Western Underground Orchid

  • Plant that spends its entire life living underground
  • Gets its energy and nutrients from fungus and the broom honeymyrtle
  • Flowers stay underground with the root system
  • Only about 50 known to exist across six populations in Australia
• Pitcher plant

  • Looks like a pitcher and can grow to enormous sizes
  • Only inhabit small sections of South American rainforests
  • Require extremely high levels of precipitation to grow
  • Carnivorous - trap prey by luring it to the rim of the pitcher area with nectar, and the slippery surface causes the prey to fall in
  • Drown, dissolve and absorb nutrients from prey, mostly insects but also small mammals

  
• Jellyfish tree

  • Growing only in Seychelles, a group of islands off the coast of East Africa
  • Has one of the smallest habitats of any plant
  • Twice thought to be extinct but rediscovered in the wild
  • Gets its name from its fruit, which resembles a jellyfish
  • Seeds don't germinate in its natural habitat, current population is quite old
• Corpse flower

  • Emits a scent that many describe as smelling like decomposition
  • Can grow up to 20 feet tall and 16 feet wide, weighing hundreds of pounds
  • Can take up to a decade to bloom, with subsequent blooms at irregular intervals of 7-10 years
  • Only has a pollination window of about one or two days

  
• Wood's cycad

  • Believed to be completely extinct in the wild, with all living specimens being clones grown from clippings taken from a few surviving specimens
  • Native to South Africa, looks like a typical palm tree with a wide, sturdy trunk up to 20 feet tall
  • Has both male and female varieties but a female plant has never been discovered, so they can't reproduce naturally
• Protecting our world's fragile ecosystems has never been more important
• These rare plants are the focus of conservation efforts to prevent them from going extinct
• Endangered animals


  • Known as "charismatic megafauna" - have star power that conservationists capitalize on to fund projects to protect them and the other organisms in their ecosystems
  • People are more likely to donate to save adorable or magnificent animals than lesser-known species
• The current population of giant pandas in the wild is fewer than 2,500 individuals

  
• Poaching and habitat loss are the main threats to tigers, with probably fewer than 4,000 left in the wild
• Whooping crane populations were severely depleted by hunting and habitat loss, but have recovered to over 400 birds thanks to breeding programs
• The current population of blue whales, the largest animals on the planet, is thought to have been reduced by up to 90% by whaling in the 20th century

  
• The population of Asian elephants, which inhabit 13 countries, is estimated to be around 40,000-50,000, with over 50% concentrated in India

  
• Sea otters are an endangered species
• Asian Elephant (Elephas maximus)


  Inhabit 13 countries, current population around 40,000-50,000, over 50% concentrated in India, poached for ivory, meat and skin

  
• Sea Otter (Enhydra lutris)

  Luxurious waterproof coat led to near extinction due to commercial fur trade, population recovered to a third of earlier numbers but still vulnerable to natural and anthropogenic factors
• Snow Leopard (Panthera uncia)


  Probably fewer than 6,500 remain in the wild, largest populations in China and Mongolia, prey on blue sheep and ibex, threatened by poaching and overhunting of prey
• Gorilla (Gorilla beringei and Gorilla gorilla)

  Two species or three subspecies, all endangered with only around 220,000 left in the wild, threatened by habitat encroachment and poaching
• Tasmanian Devil (Sarcophilus harrisii)

  Population dropped 60% between 1996-2008 due to contagious cancer, only around 10,000 wild individuals remaining, captive breeding and vaccine development efforts underway
• Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus)

  Fewer than 60,000 remaining, restricted to Borneo and Sumatra, threatened by logging and exotic pet trade, usually solitary or in small groups making them difficult to track and study
• Individual specimens and the collection of genetic and migration data is done to better understand the species, which remains at risk from ship collisions and entanglement in fishing nets
• Flora - ay tawag sa mga halamang nabubuhay sa isang partikular na lugar o panahon
• flora - Ito ay ang mga pananim na kolektibong tumutubo sa isang lugar at pana-panahon din kung umusbong o yumabon
