Endangered species are threatened by a variety of factors, including habitat loss, climate change, overhunting and poaching, invasive species, and pollution. Hence, humans around the globe are continuously advised to alter their action according to the changing nature around them.
Here is the list of top 10 endangered species from around the world.

How To Prevent These Species From Extinction
Protect Endangered Species Habitats
Protecting habitats is the most effective way to prevent endangered species from going extinct. This means restricting activities such as logging and mining, as well as controlling development and pollution. The above mentioned species are likely to stay under the label of endangered, however, it’s the reasonability of humans to minimize destruction to natural habitats.
Support Conservation Efforts
Support organizations that are actively protecting endangered species and their habitats. Donate money, volunteer time, or spread the word about their work. Conservation efforts are usually mobilized in regions where natural habitats are abundant in nature, and human are destroying it for personal gains. If we maintain our environmental balance, endangered species like, Black Rhino, Leatherback Turtle, and Cross River Gorilla are likely to survive and reproduce for a greater time span.

Reduce Human-Caused Exploitation
People can reduce the mortality of endangered species by following laws that protect them. This includes not hunting, fishing, or trapping them. Profits and rewards on the above-mentioned endangered species should be reduced and discouraged. However, organizations and intelligence agencies should actively participate to minimize such cruel and heinous acts around the globe.
Educate People About Wildlife And Conservation Efforts
Educating people to reduce the capturing of endangered species is essential to preserving biodiversity and species conservation. It is important to raise awareness about the consequences of capturing endangered species, such as habitat loss and the disruption of
natural ecosystems. Teaching people about the importance of protecting endangered species can help create a culture of understanding and respect for nature, and encourage sustainable practices.
Conclusion
Hence, it’s imperative that spreading awareness and enlightening education can help people understand the economic and environmental benefits of protecting endangered species, such as improved water and air quality, increased resiliency to climate change, and the potential for ecotourism. Finally, educating people about the legal implications of capturing endangered species can help prevent illegal activities and encourage responsible behavior.
