2010 is the UN’s official Year of Biodiversity. Now more than ever, the international spotlight is on preserving the variety of life on Earth. Our ’10 to Watch’ list offers just a few examples of species needing urgent protection.
WWF has had many successes in the past, rescuing species from the brink of extinction, but the increasing threats from deforestation, poaching and climate change are threatening to unravel some of our hard work – and we’re doing everything possible to make sure that doesn’t happen.
This selection is just 10 from a growing list of officially endangered species, with a reminder of some of the work we’re doing, with your support, to help them survive.
