Sad News!


















In the past 2 years the West African Black Rhino was declared extinct along with the Baiji White Dolphin. Surveys have found only 4 white rhinos left in the wild! Right now we are in the 'Sixth Mass Extinction' which means a lot of species dying out (around 30,000 a year), but this is the first mass extinction caused mainly by humans! Pollution, loss of habitat and great desire for fur and other animal collectors items! We need to stop this otherwise we will kill the world around us without realizing until its to late!

Polar Bears


Polar bears once common in the north are now uncommon because of global warming and the melting of the ice! In the wild there are roughly 25,000 polar bears but the number is rapidly decreasing!

First Thoughts!


Lots of animals die of unnatural causes each year, mainly caused by humans. Though lots of people try to stop it, others cause it. Some people kill animals for food, but a lot kill for money. Thousands of animals die each day, just so people can look stylish or have lip balm or even have ice cream. WDCS tries to stop marine endangerment.
