In response to message posted by Greendragon89:

  • It is the Tasmanian Tiger?
  • Because if it is not extinct already it is very near so.
  • Some are in zoos I think and that may be the only way. (However I think it may actually be too late.)
  • Middle Aged. (Goodness sounds terribuble!)

Hi Dragon,
Personally I think that the Tiger species is the most endangered animal. I think that because they are hunted for their beautiful black stripes, and their unique orange/white fur, and they can be found all over the world. I think we show put together a REAL save the tiger foundation and raise money to protect them, and also try to breed them as much as we can without being harmful to them. I am a young adult as you are.
Thanks for listeninGreendrgonon, I hope my info. helpedsmile

» Firefox13 - Most endangered animals

The most endangered animals are the ones people know little or nothing about.

Have you ever heard of the kakapo (population <100), the golden toad (none seen since the 70's, about 50 years after it was discovered), the baiji (~10), tamaraw (30-100), hirola (~300), spix macaw (<100), Cuban Solenodon (<30), or the dibbler (<300)?

Probably not. And you probably never will, as all these animal's genetic pools are now much too small for any concerted conservation effort.

They are, in essence, the walking dead.
