Northern white rhinoceros

Northern white rhinoceros

 

Maybe the worlds most endangered animal would be norther white rhinoceros. They are critically endangered.

There are only known to be two female northern white rhinoceros left, both live in captivity in Kenya. The last male northern white rhinoceros died in march this year aged 45. 

Main reason for their extinction is poaching for the horns, that cost $50 000 per kilo.

 

Now there is pretty much nothing that can save them. Thanks to greedy men.

Wolves

For ages, wolves has been very hated in Finland. There are hundreds of rumours about them, some hunters has even mistaken dogs for wolves and shot them. That's the main reason why they are very endangered. In the spring of 2017, there was only 150-180 wolves in Finland. Hunting them is forbidden, but it doesn't prevent poaching.

It's true that wolves kill alot of hunting dogs, sheeps, and other animals, but they are doing that to survive just like any other animal. Wolves are very beautiful and an important part of the nature of Finland, they shouldn't be hated.
