is not hate, but indifference: that is the essence of inhumanity."

Extinction is not a novelty. Since life appeared on earth, about 3,000,000,000 years, animals have lived and died. The dinosaurs ruled the world millions of years and then became extinct. Nobody really knows why or how this happened. Extinction is part of the process of evolution. Animals do adapt or not the changes that occur in their environment. The price of failure is extinction. In recent times, the man became a huge threat to the animals , because many of the endangered animals have disappeared because they destroy the natural habitat of life and even kill them. some of them below.

Thylacine or Tasmanian tiger was the largest marsupial carnivore on the planet and the last representative of this species. The last thylacine was filmed and photographed alive in 1933, while wandering inside his cage at the Hobart Zoo in Tasmania. Three years later, this last issue would die for a dismissal of their caregivers: forgot to lock the cage in which he slept and the animal died of cold (go neglect). The last images of the thylacine, silent and enigmatic, show an animal that looks like something out of a fantastic story human persecution led to extinction in
Yangtze River dolphin is the world's rarest cetacean endemic and Chinese river that bears his name. Almost blind, white-tipped. During 2007, several scientific expeditions by river and not sighted any copy, so it is believed extinct, but the Chinese authorities have confirmed. Be the first cetacean to disappear by human activity.
3,000 copies remain in West Africa, and their populations decreased by loss of habitat and human encroachment. It feeds on the ground and sleep in wet areas. It secretes mucus that makes it waterproof.
The seahorse tiger tail classified as Vulnerable, is targeted by fishermen for the significant benefit that this species provides for medicinal and aquarium. The species is also caught by catch in other fisheries and hábitat está en proceso de degradación. Está además entre los caballitos de mar de mayor comercio, especialmente para uso ornamental.

The jaguar is the largest cat of America and the third in the world (after the lion and tiger), is also the sole representative of the genus Panthera found in this continent and lives from near-desert areas like the desert of Arizona or the Mexican highlands up as the Amazon rainforests.

currently jaguar is endangered , ie, the numbers have declined drastically over the risk disappears completely from the Earth, it is prohibited the hunting, capture, transport , possession and trade of the jaguar, or products and by-products of this species throughout national.
And as many will know for many years the slaughter of seals has remained largely hidden from the world, but the advent of the Internet, especially, brings to our retinas this shameful reality every spring. In 2001, an independent team of veterinarians monitored the Canadian seal slaughter. His report was shocking: he concluded that in 42% of cases, the seal did not present enough evidence of cranial injury and not to be dead, but even unconscious, at the time of skin it. While thousands of animals become extinct, elsewhere killed for as there is overcrowding and threatens the production of cod, when relidad is hunting for its skin, Go stupidity!
When the last animal is representative of a species disappears, it all ends with a story. Only by being aware and respecting the normal evolution of ecosystems and all the beings that inhabit the planet, we will balance we need to avoid self-destruction.
