Critically Endangered Species (2022)

Descrição

A critically endangered species is a species that is very likely to become extinct in the near future. In 2022, there are 3,483 species classified as critically endangered. All of these animals have a 50% chance of becoming extinct within 10 years or 3 generations. On World Wildlife Day, our proposal is to become informed and aware of the human impact on biodiversity, to take action. Let's be the change we want to see in the world, the time is today.
